Beowulf [sound recording] / translated by Francis B. Gummere.
Written one thousand years ago, Beowulf is the oldest surviving work in Old English, and the first of its kind to make the transition from the oral tradition to written form. Filled with vivid battle scenes, it is named for a young warrior in fifth-century Scandinavia who achieves glory by fighting and killing various monsters and governing his land wisely for 50 years.
