Advantage should be taken of the increased interest in teaching Old English literature, in translation, at the college and high school levels. The study of "Beowulf" and other Old English literature has proved to be a stimulating experience for students at the United States Air Force Academy and at Georgia College. At the academy, the study of "Beowulf" and Old English literature culminated in a research paper in one freshman course and was a valuable part of several other courses--literature survey, classics, and values in western world literature. At Georgia College, focus on "Beowulf" has been included in a course on the history of the English language and will be used in a series of adult education seminars which involve faculty from other departments. Students at both schools have responded enthusiastically to Old English literature. (Suggestions for translations, anthologies, and other materials, as well as ideas for teaching approaches, are included.) (JM)
