Book excerpt: Part of a new series Legends from the Ancient North, The Wanderer tells the classic tales that influenced JRR Tolkien's The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings 'So the company of men led a careless life, All was well with them: until One began To encompass evil, an enemy from hell. Grendel they called this cruel spirit...' J.R.R. Tolkien spent much of his life studying, translating and teaching the great epic stories of northern Europe, filled with heroes, dragons, trolls, dwarves and magic. He was hugely influential for his advocacy of Beowulf as a great work of literature and, even if he had never written The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, would be recognised today as a significant figure in the rediscovery of these extraordinary tales. Legends from the Ancient North brings together from Penguin Classics five of the key works behind Tolkien's fiction.They are startling, brutal, strange pieces of writing, with an elemental power brilliantly preserved in these translations.They plunge the reader into a world of treachery, quests, chivalry, trials of strength.They are the most ancient narratives that exist from northern Europe and bring us as near as we will ever get to the origins of the magical landscape of Middle-earth (Midgard) which Tolkien remade in the 20th century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unique and beautiful, Beowulf brings to life a society of violence and honor, fierce warriors and bloody battles, deadly monsters and famous swords. Written by an unknown poet in about the eighth century, this masterpiece of Anglo-Saxton literature transforms legends, myth, history, and ancient songs into the richly colored tale of the hero Beowulf, the loathsome man-eater Grendel, his vengeful water-hag mother, and a treasure-hoarding dragon. The earliest surviving epic poem in any modern European language. Beowulf is a stirring portrait of a heroic world–somber, vast, and magnificent.

Book excerpt: "In these elegant and searing poems, Theodore Deppe gives voice to the full complexity of human character, creating a world that is charged and expansive. With cinematic vividness and stunning eloquence, these poems examine the tensions between hope and despair, responsibility and mystery - as if a sacred universe we were in danger of losing had been stayed at the moment of vanishing. The dramatic monologues are a triumph of the imagination." --Betsy Sholl

These images may depict the various forms of love, either experienced in reality by the waking self or suffered anew in the archetypes of sleep, where old myths take on new meanings. The book is an investigation of the forms of love and through their effects on a single individual their effect on us all. Originally published in 1967.

Absolutely sui generis." —Booklist, starred review Without a word, The Wanderer presents one little paper boat's journey across the ocean, past reefs and between icebergs, through schools of fish, swaying water plants, and terrifying sea monsters. The little boat is all alone, and while its aloneness gives it the chance to wonder at the fairy-tale world above and below the waves, that also means it must save itself when it storms. And so it does. Readers young and old will find the strength and inspiration in this quietly powerful story about growing, learning, and life's ups and downs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wanderer: And Other Poems The Wanderer, Or Stanzas Written In California. 1876. Thoughts of Home. The shades of eve are deepening round my bower, And falling night brings thoughts that make me yearn For the dear sounds of home! This is the hour When strangers hall is joyless: heart doth turn To heart of its own band. Who now would learn, Even from a lover's accents, sweet and low, Thoughts not of days gone by; If now I burn, 'Tis with the love of home; and well I know, Where er my foot may stray, that flame will brightly glow. O, blessed home! where Christian love and light, O'er all the joys and griefs of our abode, Shone like the lamps of heaven by day and night, Diffusing peace and lessening every load: The father walking in the narrow road, And solemn in devotion, strict in rule, Still gladly cheered where youthful faces glowed With merry play, o'er shop or garden tool, O'er labors of the farm, or tasks of village school. How well do I remember every spot The hours of youth have made so deeply dear! O! I would count it now a happy lot To look upon those scenes, that rise so clear About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
