Beowulf

A detailed Summary of Beowulf


Beowulf describes how good will always defeat evil. Even though Beowulf

is not even physically capable of beating Grendel he still overcomes him,because he

is good. The poem starts out describing this great Meade hall, and there are all

these warriors that get drunk there. After the Meade hall is glorified it goes on to

tell how there is this great monster. Also this great monster can hear the harps

rejoicing from the Meade hall,and the poets singing of the Almighty making the

earth's beautiful plains (line 27).

Then the story describes that the evil monster,

also known as Grendel, is spawned of hell on earth, which shows that Grendel in

this story represents evil. This is like hyping the monster's reputation so that it can

foreshadow the coming of a great hero- Beowulf. Grendel then goes on a

murderous rampage and renders the Meade hall lifeless, and enrages the great king

Hrothgar ( owner of the Meade hall).1 Stories of Grendel's rampages soon reach

the ears of the local hero Beowulf, and he immediately outfits a boat and sails

across some great British sea. He rushes to the king and finds his great Meade hall

abandoned. He ends up setting up a trap for Gren


Beowulf to prove my point that good will always defeat evil. In Star Wars, Luke

has the upper hand, because Grendel knows he could beat Beowulf in a one on one

eachother. As a monster Grendel's natural enemy is good, and good's natural enemy is

war is no where near an end. Evil will always try to cause trouble and raise hell,

In the story of Beowulf he could not kill Grendel with his sword so

"creature" which is the exact same character Grendel was. On the other hand,

sword. Beowulf later ends up ripping Grendel's shoulder and arm out of its socket,
