Book Overview

Caedmon's Exodus and Daniel is a book that contains two Old English poems, Exodus and Daniel, which were edited by Richard Paul W�����lker from Grein's 1883 edition. The poems are considered to be the work of Caedmon, a 7th century Anglo-Saxon poet. The poem Exodus tells the story of Moses and the Israelites' escape from Egypt, while Daniel tells the story of the prophet Daniel and his experiences in the court of King Nebuchadnezzar. The book provides a valuable insight into the literary and cultural history of the Anglo-Saxon period, and is an important resource for scholars and students of Old English literature. The edition includes an introduction, notes on the text, and a glossary of Old English words.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
