dc.description.abstract | The main aim of this article is to present the Old English poem The Dream of
the Rood as a literary work successfully mingling Christian and Germanic traditions.
The poet very skillfully applies the pattern of traditional secular heroic
poetry to Christian subject-matter creating a coherent unity. The Biblical themes
and motifs are shaped by the Germanic frame of mind because the addressees of
the poem were a warrior society with a developed ethos of honour and courage,
quite likely to identify with a god who professed the same values. Although
the Christian story of the Passion is narrated from the Anglo-Saxon point of
view, the most fundamental values coming from the suffering of Jesus and his
key role in God’s plan to redeem mankind remain unchanged: the universal
notions of Redemption, Salvation and Heavenly Kingdom do not lose their primary
meaning. | pl_PL |
