The June 2008 issue of BBC History Magazine includes an article on
Beowulf. It's by Alex Burghart, who it's stated is writing a history of

which could be worth looking out for in due course.

The article also gives a link to Burghart's work on the Prosopography of
Anglo-Saxon England project - a database of known people from that period -
