The Origins of Beowulf: From Vergil to Wiglaf
North, Richard (Reader in English, University College London)
This fascinating study suggests that the Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf was composed in the winter of 826-7 as a requiem for King Beornwulf of Mercia on behalf of Wiglaf, the ealdorman who succeeded him. The place of composition is given as the minster of Breedon on the Hill in Leicestershire (now Derbyshire) and the poet as Eanmund, abbot of Breedon.
