<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 6259422, member: 74968&quot;]Sutton Hoo has been on my radar for a long time. I took a 4th year course in Anglo-Saxon literature many years ago. We had to translate about one Anglo Saxon poem per week into modern English. Try that for yourself sometime. A great course but not great if you wanted to sleep. LOL I fell in love with the Dream of the Rood, the wanderer, and the seafarer. Of course we tackled Beowulf as well. This was before Seamus Heaney&#039;s masterful translation.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am saving this show for when I have uploaded all of my lectures for this term. I am greatly looking forward to it.</p><p><br /></p><p>“How often the lone-dweller anticipates</p><p>some sign, this Measurer’s mercy</p><p>— must always must—</p><p>mind-caring, along the ocean’s windings,</p><p>stirring rime-chill seas, hands as oars</p><p>many long whiles, treading the tracks of exile—</p><p>the way of the world an open book always.”[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
