John Niles (scholar)

John D. Niles is an American scholar of Old English literature best known for his work on ''Beowulf'' and the theory of oral literature. A graduate of the University of California, Berkeley, where he received his higher degrees (B.A. in English, 1967; PhD in Comparative Literature, 1972), he taught for an initial four years as Assistant Professor of English at Brandeis University, then joined the faculty of the Department of English at the University of California, Berkeley, where he remained for twenty-six years. In 2001 he joined the faculty of the University of Wisconsin–Madison, where he taught for ten years in the Department of English, was named the Frederic G. Cassidy Professor of Humanities, and was a Senior Fellow at the UW Institute for the Humanities. After his retirement in 2011 he has remained active in research as Professor Emeritus at both UC Berkeley and UW-Madison.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=John Niles )



Niles is the author of eight books on Old English literature and related topics in addition to upwards of sixty scholarly articles and two chapbooks. He has edited or co-edited another eight books, including ''A Beowulf Handbook'' (with Robert E. Bjork, 1997) and ''Klaeber's Beowulf'', 4th edn (with R.D. Fulk and Robert E. Bjork, 2008). During the 1980s he conducted extensive fieldwork into singing and storytelling traditions in Scotland, particularly among Scotland's traveling people, and this resulted in his 1997 book ''Homo Narrans: The Poetics and Anthropology of Oral Literature''. In 2005 he taught a seminar at the Newberry Library, Chicago on the early history of Old English studies, and this became the kernel of his 2015 book ''The Idea of Anglo-Saxon England 1066-1901''. His researches into the archaeology and prehistory of early Northwest Europe led to the joint publication ''Beowulf and Leyre'' (2007), which features a mine of information about the prehistoric Danish site (at the present-day hamlet of Lejre) where much of the imagined action of ''Beowulf'' is set.
