Abstract
The purpose of this thesis is, by a rather detailed study of the content of these two epics, Beowulf and Deirdre, to endeavor to point out the difference of view, the difference of outlook between the Anglo-Saxon and the Celt. The quotations from Beowulf are taken from the translation of James M. Garnett, fourth edition. Deirdre, or The Fate of The Sons of Usnach, is the seventh chapter of Lady Gregory’s beautiful translation of the Cuchulain of Muirthemne. Consequently, the quotations from Deirdre are taken from this book, and reference is made in the footnotes under this title.
