Beowulf's tragic defect is the reason and his tragic flaw is his hubris. He was so arrogant that he overestimated himself and thought that he could beat a dragon alone. This pride drove to his release.

Explanation;

After Beowulf displays the ruler of the Geats, one day a robber invades and disorders a barrow where a dragon was resting guard to a wealth. This provokes the dragon and it begins to spit fire on the people of Geats. Beowulf continues to fight this dragon. Though he kills the dragon, the dragon bites him through their fight, the venom from which witnesses to be deadly, killing him. This is how the hero appears with a shocking end.

never [62]

okay so i was just doing some research on it, so Maya saw Mrs. Flowers as a role model. She wanted to be  like Mrs. Flowers when she got older. Maya stated that Mrs. Flowers was a " Life Line". After Maya's "incindent with her boyfriend"  she was, closing herself off from the world, didnt want to talk, was depressed, etc. Mrs. Flowers was there, she would sit with her and force her to talk, and they read poetry together. If it wasnt for Mrs. Flowers Maya could have gone down a long sorrow filled road, being alone. They become best firends.
