Opis

THE TIMELESS FANTASY AUTHOR AND THE TIMELESS CLASSICWilliam Morris, of course, is the author of the classic Well at World's End, the epic fantasy is the foundation of modern High Fantasy. William Morris was famous for more than fantasy: A true Victorian ball of creative energy, he was a master of design and other kinds of literature -- including poetry. The man was a true polymath, creating floral textiles and wallpapers, painting, creating metalwork, stained glass, jewelry, sculpture, and furniture; at one point he even metamorphosed to become a political firebrand, and published a Socialist political paper. But these days we remember him most clearly as an author. And this wonderful book is William Morris and A.J. Wyatt's translation of the greatest fantasy of all time, Beowulf.
