[edit] Stub

I have classed this as high importance since it refers to materials written by JRRT (but toyed with "mid").

Need reference to Oxford MS ID, dating, importance - there should be good review quotes on the significance of this publication.

Also some reference to the brouhaha in the press re: Tolkien's translation of Beowulf being "discovered" in the same box of manuscripts, but that would take some careful research. - PKM 04:18, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
