Abstract

Caedmon‟s hymn is an Old English poem written by a Northumbrian shepherd who had likely received the inspiration from the Christian God. It is considered as vernacular poetry, it was initially written in the Northumbrian dialect and, later on, transmitted into other translated versions. This brief paper is a literary analysis of the Leningrad version of the hymn with the aim to highlight stylistic features, use of language, themes, and value of the composition with reference to the contributions of several experts of the poem.
