He discusses theories of the origins of the poem, draws parallels between elements in \u003ci\u003eBeowulf\u003c\/i\u003e and in Celtic literary tradition, and suggests that the central plot of the poem, the conflict with Grendel and his mother, is \"fundamentally indebted to Celtic folktale elements.\" The study is well documented and rich in references to Celtic literature, legend, and folklore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin Puhvel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0889201226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780889201224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wilfrid Laurier University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/25\/1981\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.33d","brand":"Martin Puhvel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43983318974719,"sku":"9780889201224","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5590a254-22af-4dab-8d2d-b5a3e7758680.jpg?v=1683265935","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/beowulf-and-the-celtic-tradition-martin-puhvel-9780889201224","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
