- Daniel is an anonymous Old English poem based loosely on the Biblical Book of Daniel, found in the Junius Manuscript. The author and the date of Daniel are unknown. Critics have argued that Cædmon is the author of the poem, but this theory has been since disproved. Daniel, as it is preserved, is 764 lines long. There have been numerous arguments that there was originally more to this poem than survives today. The majority of scholars, however, dismiss these arguments with the evidence that the text finishes at the bottom of a page, and that there is a simple point, which translators assume indicates the end of a complete sentence. Daniel contains a plethora of lines which Old English scholars refer to as “hypermetric” or long. Daniel is one of the four major Old Testament prophets, along with Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel. The poet even changed the meaning of the story from remaining faithful while you are being persecuted to a story dealing with pride, which is a very common theme in Old English Literature. The Old English, Daniel is a warning against pride and there are three warnings in the story. The Israelites were conquered because they lost faith in God, who delivered them from Egypt, and started worshiping idols and this is the first prideful act. The second and third warnings are about internal pride, shown to Nebuchadnezzar through Daniel's dream interpretations. (en)
- Daniel est un poème en vieil anglais qui figure dans le manuscrit Junius. Long de 764 vers, il s'agit d'une adaptation des cinq premiers chapitres du Livre de Daniel. Il relate l'histoire des Hébreux à la cour des rois babyloniens Nabuchodonosor et Balthazar, avec une emphase particulière sur l'épisode des trois enfants dans la fournaise. La compilation du manuscrit Junius remonte aux alentours de l'an 1000, mais il est impossible de dater la rédaction du poème. (fr)
