books discussing beowulf?

Question

for english i need to find books and critical essays discussing beowulf. but im having trouble finding any =[ any ideas?

Answer 1

Ok, some of these are actually Beowulf, but others are criticism, so don't get frustrated by the first four or five.

If I understand how google books works, there's text you can actually read.

-------I'm so glad I came back. I had a google book link I planned on putting in:

Answer 2

Oh a eerie piece of ancient lore !!

Actually an interesting piece of MODERN fiction is Micheal Critchon's "Eaters of the Dead" which later became the film "13th Warrior" it deals with the "Beowulf" story obliquely.

I'm still girdling my loins to read the original ;)
