old literature

well, talking about old english literature it means that we talk about English language in the past. At that time the English language was not like English language that we could found today. They were very different! The old english language or can also called Anglo-saxon has different pronounciation, different vocabulary, different structure, even different grammar with the English language today. And i think the old english language is more difficult than the English language today. Because the old English language can not be read now except by the people who have a special study of it.one of the old english poem that used the old english language was BEOWULF which the author name is unknown. it tells us about fierce fight and brave deeds, of the speeches of the leader. not only BEOWULF, there are still many poems that used the old english language such as exodus, christ and satan , etc.and also not only poems that used the old english but also the prose. as far as I know, some people thats used the old english language on their writing such as Plato, Aristoteles ,etc.
