Reception [ ] Tolkien's translation of Beowulf has been compared to 's translation from 2000. Writes that since Tolkien was not a professional poet like Heaney, he had to make compromises in translating the original Old English epic. According to Acocella, Heaney's focus on rhyme and makes him occasionally lose details from the original that remain in Tolkien's prose version. Tolkien's version stays closer to the details and rhythm of the original and also very close to the original sense of the poem, which has been attributed to Tolkien's scholarly knowledge of Old English, whereas Heaney, on the other hand, succeeded in producing a translation suited for the modern reader, more so than Tolkien's. The publication also caused some controversy among scholars.
Beowulf expert and University of Kentucky professor, called it a 'travesty', and criticism was also offered by professor Daniel Donoghue. Writing for, Kiernan cites J. Tolkien himself who disliked his own translation. According to Kiernan, any prose translation of Beowulf will neglect the 'poetic majesty' of the original. Lecturer Philippa Semper instead called the translation 'captivating' and 'a great gift to anyone interested in Beowulf or Tolkien.' Wrote in his review 'The exclusion of [Tolkien's] alliterative poetic translation from the edition is more puzzling.
This translation is a well-done piece of poetry, truer to the original in both form and content than any other poetic translation of Beowulf.general readers would very likely enjoy the poetic translation more than they will the prose.' Writing in the, comments that Tolkien had been skeptical about putting Beowulf into modern English, and had written in his 1940 essay that turning the poem 'into 'plain prose' could be an 'abuse'.' Gilsdorf continues, 'But he did it anyway'; Tolkien remarking that the result 'was 'hardly to my liking'.'
Background and legacy [ ] J. Tolkien specialized in English at university and in 1915 graduated with as special subject. In 1920, he became Reader in English Language at the, where he claimed credit for raising the number of students of from five to twenty. He gave courses in Old English,, various and texts, Old and Middle English philology, introductory philology,,,. Having read Beowulf earlier, he began a translation of the poem which he finished in 1926 but never published. Acocella writes that Tolkien may not have had the time to pursue a publication when he moved to and began to write his novel.
