In this paper the background, types, textual recurrences, and meanings of Havelok the Dane are discussed, and it is concluded that the writer of this wellstructured work handled the many genres and parallel occurrences in the poem in a very subtle way so as to bring out the style of the work in the most striking way. However, combing the bibliography on this work reveals that it is a long-neglected poem.
