The Exeter Book is by far the largest single collection of Old English poetry surviving today. At first glance it might seem to be a commonplace book, a sort of dumping ground for bits of verse which caught the scribe's notice at the moment. But, before long, a careful reading of the poems collected shows an artfulness, a playfulness, and a wisdom in the arrangement of the poems. The Exeter Book is a collection designed to teach, and what it teaches is a particularly Old English Christianity, beginning with the Advent of Christ, a very particular and fundamental aspect of Christianities, proceeding through Saints' lives and allegorical pieces, and the apparently personal poems often referred to as "elegies", and puzzling the reader with the mysteries of the Riddles - and of the world - before fading to black. Old English poetry survives in four great manuscript collections, in two Old English translations of Latin originals, and in a multitude of bits and pieces of manuscript and modern transcription of now-lost manuscripts. Virtually all that has survived of verse from the Old English period is contained in The Anglo-Saxon Poetic Records, edited by George Philip Krapp and Elliott Van Kirk Dobbie in six volumes in the middle of the last century. These six volumes amount to something around 30,000 lines of verse, roughly equivalent to the number of hexameter lines in Homer's The Iliad and The Odyssey combined. The present volume is a translation of Volume 3 of the Anglo-Saxon Poetic Records.

Old English Verse (1972) covers the whole range of Old English poetry: the heroic poems, notably Beowulf and Malden; the ‘elegies’, such as The Wanderer and The Seafarer; the Bible stories and the lives of the saints which mark the end of pagan influence and the beginning of Christian inspiration; the Junius Manuscript; and finally King Alfred. All the many quotations are translated.

The poems translated here, which were gathered together in the final volume of the Anglo-Saxon Poetic Records under the title The Anglo-Saxon Minor Poems, are the offspring of the scattering over the centuries of manuscript fragments, of engraved stones, of carved whale bone, of poetry inserted into prose manuscripts, and of bits of poetry that only are known to us because somebody, somewhere, sometime transcribed a manuscript now lost to us. There is nothing "Minor" about these poems so randomly scattered by history and then haphazardly gathered into a single volume by a single editor in the middle of the Twentieth Century. Certainly some pieces are better as poetry - less "Minor" if not more "Major" - than others: I have a fondness for Thureth and for Maxims II; others may prefer the neo-Heroic mode of The Battle of Maldon or of some of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle Poems; and the Metrical Charms will, of course, probably for all the wrong reasons, be favourites of the Neo-Pagan-Wiccan set. Elliott Van Kirk Dobbie, the editor of The Anglo-Saxon Minor Poems, confessed in the second sentence of his introduction to his edition that his choice of title was a matter of convenience rather than appropriateness. Siding with appropriateness, this volume of my translations of the Anglo-Saxon poems which are scattered outside the four large codices of Old English poems onto stone and whale bone, mingled with prose, or preserved as children of the scattered and lost in centuries-old transcriptions, I have chosen to title The Old English Scatterlings.
