Abstract
This thesis approaches the relationship between Genesis A and Genesis B through an analysis of the portrayal of Adam and Eve in the two poems. The conclusion reached was that because of the insertion of Genesis B into Genesis A, The Anglo-Saxon Genesis presents Eve as the person most responsible for the Fall.
