Description

Explore how the legendary epic Beowulf continues to shape modern culture through this scholarly study from Routledge. As cultural shifts and social changes occur, the presence of Beowulf in the public eye has grown significantly. This book examines the evolution of the poem through the lenses of cultural studies, adaptation theory, and monster theory. Readers will find a deep analysis of Anglo-American retellings found across various media, including literary texts, comic books, and film. A unique aspect of this study is the look at how modern adaptations transform the poem's monsters. Rather than simple villains, these versions often present monsters with complex motives, sometimes portraying them as victims of social injustice, male aggression, or organized militarism. This volume is an essential resource for those interested in how medieval themes are reinterpreted in contemporary storytelling.
