Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the multifaceted beliefs of Anglo-Saxon poets concerning the cataclysmic Last Judgment. Examining numerous references from epic poems like Beowulf and The Phoenix, the author reconstructs how these writers envisioned this apocalyptic event. Their vivid descriptions of the destruction of the world by fire, the resurrection of the dead, and the terrors of divine retribution offer a fascinating glimpse into the medieval Christian mind. The author explores the sources of these beliefs, tracing their roots in biblical and non-Christian traditions. By contextualizing these visions within the tumultuous world of early England, this book illuminates the profound impact that the Last Judgment held on the Anglo-Saxon imagination, shaping their art, literature, and worldview.
