Links to Selected Texts and Translations from Old English Alliterative Poems
In addition to the links shown below, check out the Old English in Facsimile page, which provides access to original Old English Texts for nearly every known manuscript, the Old English Poetry Project, The Complete Corpus of Anglo-Saxon Poetry, and Anglo-Saxon Aloud, which is exactly what it sounds like. Another useful resource is Faust & Thompson's OLD ENGLISH POEMS TRANSLATED INTO THE ORIGINAL METER (1918) and Michael Burch's The Best Anglo-Saxon Poems Modern English Translation. If you want to learn Old English, O.D. Macrae-Gibson's Learning Old English is a good resource. Also check out CLASP (A Consolidated Library of Anglo-Saxon Poetry), which provides the original texts of the Old English corpus with line-by-line metrical parses.
