Beowulf was the product of a society almost as remote as the warworld culture it celebrates. This study shows that it is both essential and possible to accept the radically unfamiliar social scene of the poem and to recognize the gulf between its assumptions and our own. The poet's acceptance of rituamized drunkenness, which has led translators into decorous paraphrase, and his evident glorification of violence are only two of the most obvious examples of the difficulties in understanding Beowulf. Mr Shippey confronts such alen attitudes and gives a reading of the poem which follows Anglo-Saxon notions of 'symbolism', 'irony' and 'poetry' rather than their anachronistic modern counterparts
