Could
it
be
true
that
narrative
elements
ofBeowulforiginated
on
the
continent
and
were
transmitted
to
early
England
in
both
written
and
oral
form?
These
are
the
exciting
conclusions
of
Philip
A.
Shaw,
who
analyzes
the
poem's
personal
names
and
ethnonyms
as
evidence
of
layered
composition.
Shaw's
virtuosic
