Asked by wiki @ in English viewed by 491 People

How did Seamus Heaney incorporate Old English poetry elements in this modern translation? His punctuation copies the half-lines used in Old English poetry. His capitalization style mimics Old English poetry capitalization. He uses character names that were popular in Old English poetry. He solely uses unstressed syllables like poets of Old English poetry.

Answered by wiki @

The correct answer is that he uses half-lines like in old English poetry. He doesn't mimic the capitalization nor does he uses popular names as the names were really used in that form, he didn't invent a new name with which he would mimic old names. In addition, the syllables are not unstressed.
