Description

Anglo-Saxon poetry was produced between 700 and 1000 AD and the works of Old English verse spring from the source of the English language. Michael Alexander translated Old English poetry into modern English and into a verse form that retains the qualities of Anglo-Saxon metre and alliteration.
