He is best remembered for his comprehensive editorial work on Beowulf, which included a critical edition that provided invaluable insights into the text's linguistic, historical, and cultural context. His scholarly approach helped to solidify Beowulf's status as a central work in the canon of English literature, and his analyses are still referenced in contemporary studies.
