Query: Very interesting and inspiring

This was a very interesting book. I was particularly amazed at the overt references to Christianity throughout the entire poem. As the translator wrote in the introduction, Beowulf is not so much about the battles but it's about the pictures it paints of the characters and society of its time. It was interesting to see, then, how different the Christian worldview was during Beowulf's time compared to now. Noticing these differences, or rather the elements that haven't changed, helps to distill out true Christianity from the cultural morass it resides in today.
