Hero and Exile by Greenfield

After a distinguished career as a teacher, scholar, bibliographer and literary critic, Stanley Brian Greenfield, Professor of English at the University of Oregon, one of the founders of the annual Anglo-Saxon England and of the International Society of Anglo-Saxonists, died in 1987. He wrote primarily on Anglo-Saxon topics as well as later English poetry. He deeply explored the Old English poetic corpus, pointing out important meanings and qualities in insightful and sensitive readings. Hero and Exile brings together some of his most important essays, divided into three sections - Beowulfian Studies, The Old English Elegies and The Theme of Exile - attesting to his long and fruitful engagement with Old English literature.
Stanley B. Greenfield is Professor of English at the University of Oregon and is cofounder of the yearbook, Anglo-Saxon England, A Critical History of Old English Literature and The Interpretation of Old English Poems, and President of the Philological Association of the Pacific Coast.Alain Renoir is Professor of English at the University of California, Berkeley, and author of The Poetry of John Lydgate.
