ANALYSIS
Although the poem begins with Beowulf’s
arrival, Grendel’s attacks have been an ongoing
event. An elaborate history of character and
lineages is spoken of, as well as their
interactions with each other, debts owed and
repaid, and deeds of valour.

The warriors form a kind of brotherhood

linked by loyalty to their lord. What is unique
about “Beowulf” is that the poem actually
begins and ends with a funeral. At the
beginning of the poem, the king, hero, Shield
Shiefson dies and there is a huge funeral for
him. At the end of the poem when Beowulf
dies, there is also a massive funeral for
Beowulf.

F. Making generalization and

abstractions about the lesson.
ELABORATE

Later in his life, Beowulf becomes king of

the Geats, and finds his realm terrorized by a
