Last lesson , we learnt a lot of things about English literature . I think that England has a rich literature with a long history . Especially , I was impressed by Old English literature , inas much as it includes a challenging period which is called Anglo-Saxon . When I was surfing on the internet , I read diverse articles about The Anglo -Saxon Period . I realized that epic poems , songs , Bible translations , riddles take part in this period.
İn my opinion , among the most important works of this period is the poem Beowulf .This poem tells the story of the legendary who is the title character Geatish hero Beowulf .I learnt that Beowulf is a heroic poem . I haven't heard the poem Beowulf ever . I want to read this poem definitely .
On the other side , I want to refer to specific features of Anglo -Saxon poetry . I learnt that simile is a particular feature of Anglo- Saxon style . As an example of this ,the poem Beowulf contains at best five similes, and these are of the short variety .Also , metaphor ,alliteration ,variation are specific features of Anglo-Saxon poetry .
Finally , in this part I want to say how I enjoy in this course . Because I like English language and its long history . Thanks to this course , I will learn a lot of things about English literature .
