Og ja, måske er internettet blevet noget rod de sidste år, men der er stadig mange ting, som er brilliante. Så når jeg begynder at stave mig lidt rundt i en angelsaksisk tekst, så er der selvfølgelig nogen, som har lavet en brugbar angelsaksisk ordbog, jeg umiddelbart kan slå op i. Det er man jo nødt til at elske.

"I Kveld blev der banket paa Helvedes Port" trækker mig så over i Grundtvigs forhold til den angelsaksiske litteratur. Der nusser jeg så for min fornøjelses skyld rundt i hans forhold til "Beowulf" og får bekræftet, hvad jeg godt vidste, men delvis havde glemt, at Tolkien kendte Grundtvig godt og lå tæt på ham i forståelsen af "Beowulf".
Måske skriver jeg i virkeligheden om Grundtvig, fordi jeg er rollespiller og fantasylæser.
