ALT1 ... that Arthur Gilchrist Brodeur, who later wrote The Art of Beowulf, was one of a group of University of California professors who at first refused on principle to sign the loyalty oath in 1949?

ALT2 ... that Arthur Gilchrist Brodeur, future head of Scandinavian studies at Berkeley, published a translation of the Prose Edda with The American-Scandinavian Foundation the same year he received his PhD? Yngvadottir (talk) 06:07, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

--and I have now reviewed Pat Hawkins. Yngvadottir (talk) 04:53, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

- Length, creation date, and compliance with policy all check out. I prefer ALT1 which has been verified by the multiple provided refs. --ThaddeusB (talk) 19:03, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks! But I thought I'd found scads of refs for the original hook too? Yngvadottir (talk) 20:00, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

I didn't mean to imply that the other hooks weren't referenced, as they are referenced just fine. I was just indicating my preference. Sorry for the confusion. --ThaddeusB (talk) 20:05, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
