Description:

"A professor in a course on Beowulf once said that Klaeber didn't study Beowulf, he WAS Beowulf. If you want a fascinating and tragic scholar's biography, read up on this man, he was the one and only expert, with a classical background, carrying pretty much all meaning of this very complex text into present times. He give you a great text to work with, a ton of introductory material, language notes, and EVERY WORD in the glossary!!! Write into Jack's edition, but keep this as a cherished treasure of scholarly wisdom and the example of how to write scholarly literature. If you want to be known for having anything on your shelves, then put this baby on there...if you can find it." *By [Sören Fröhlich "SF"][1] on Amazon* [1]: http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A2C55T5M3GL6LI/ref=cm_cr_dp_pdp
