	Description:		Beowulf is the greatest Anglo-Saxon epic, a tale of warriors, monsters and dragons. The poem has inspired films and musicals, graphic novels and computer games. All this is owed to the unique manuscript, which was nearly destroyed by fire in the 18th century. Julian Harrison, Curator of Medieval Manuscripts, explains.
