                                  genre, from The Lord of the Rings right through
                                  to Game of Thrones. The dating and origins of
                                  Beowulf are much discussed but still unresolved,
                                  though many theories have been put forward. We
                                  know the poem was set down in a manuscript
                                  around AD 1000, and was probably first created
                                  many years earlier – perhaps as early as the
                                  eighth century. Some aspects of it might also have
                                  existed in the oral tradition before the text reached
                                  its surviving form, but we can only speculate about
                                  that.
