Some additional comments were posted in the SF-FANDOM Medieval European Studies Forum by moderator Martin Read and Dr. Larry Swain, who teaches Anglo-Saxon Studies.

The discussion was based on citations from public domain translations of "Beowulf", which means the translations may not be up to modern standards. Two translations were used. The first was the Francis Gummere version, but Michael switch over to the Leslie Hall version after going through 15 chapters.
