Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'This groundbreaking translation . reveals the un-Beowulf-a riddling maze never seen before, a murder mystery of smoke and mirrors.'- Robert Bjork, editor of Klaeber's Beowulf'Vinsonhaler presents startling new evidence for the poem's 'enigmatic design,' in which good kings such as Beowulf and Hrothgar are repeatedly complicated by allusions to kin-murder, vengeance, and avarice, drawing them ever closer to the monsters they confront.'- Francis Leneghan, Professor of Old English, University of OxfordWith a Foreword by Heather O'Donoghue (University of Oxford)Beowulf: An Epic Enigma (Book I) offers a revolutionary reappraisal of the Old English epic. Drawing on decades of scholarship and live performance, Chris Vinsonhaler, a former professor at the City University of New York and a recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship, presents Beowulf as a masterwork of enigmatic design that mounts a prophetic critique of heroic criminality beneath the veil of heroic praise.This undiscovered Beowulf emerges as a hybrid colossus straddling page and performance-careening from heroic valor to monstrous villainy, from heart-rending tragedy to mind-numbing horror, from funereal solemnity to satire, slapstick, and riotous farce.Further intensifying this terrain is the shadow of hidden crimes, a riddling undercurrent woven into the poem's coded signs and strategic silences. As these clues accumulate, the reader steps in as sleuth, tracing the ploys, false oaths, and murderous deceptions that underwrite the heroes' allure-including, especially, Beowulf himself.This richly illustrated volume reveals a literary tour de force: not the primitive artifact of popular imagination, but a shimmering labyrinth in which hero and monster, king and kin slayer, savior and destroyer emerge in a harrowing reflection of the human heart.'This is absolutely not a Beowulf of epic praise, but a scathing exposé of avarice, cultural nostalgia, and the perennial allure of violence.'- Ophelia Eryn Hostetter, Professor of Old English, Rutgers-CamdenBook I confirms the poem's hidden logic, culminating in the Grendel cycle. Book II, forthcoming, follows that logic to its final reckoning. For more on the project, visit Beowulf.Live.…
