Answer: 1. Beowulf sets out on his journey for Daneland

When Hrothgar asks Beowulf to come to his country to help him, Beowulf doesn't hesitate. Beowulf's father was close friends with Hrothgar, so he felt like he owed the king something, and he couldn't say no to his pleas for help. That's why he gathered his men and went to Daneland.

2. Hrothgar welcomes Beowulf

Once Beowulf arrives in Daneland, he is greeted by Hrothgar and his family and men. There is a huge feast to celebrate the arrival of a famous hero because now everyone can somehow relax now they know they will be safe soon, from the monster Grendel.

3. Beowulf waits for Grendel to attack Heorot

Beowulf and his men pretend to be asleep in Heorot (Hrothgar's castle) and wait for Grendel to arrive. Once he does, Beowulf and his men attack the monster, and manage to hurt him. Beowulf rips out one of his arms before he manages to escape to his den.

4. Beowulf succeeds in defeating Grendel by decapitating him

However, Grendel doesn't get far - he is bleeding profusely from his wound, and he crashes in the forest. Beowulf manages to catch up with him, and decides to kill the monster by ripping his head off with his bare hands. Thus, the threat is eliminated.

5. Beowulf fights with Grendel's mother

Even though he thought there is no threat anymore, it turns out he was wrong. Grendel's mother was also alive and she was angry because her son was dead. Therefore, Beowulf has to fight with her as well, before she can manage to hurt Hrothgar and his people.

6. Beowulf sets out for his Geatish homeland

Once he's killed both Grendel and his mother, he can safely return to his home country where he will be celebrated as an even more famous hero. However, when Hrothgar dies, he goes back to Daneland to become king there, instead of his own country.

7. Beowulf sets out for his fight with the dragon

This is Beowulf's final battle - he has to defeat the dragon that is threatening his kingdom. Beowulf is very old now, but he still wants to protect his people. He manages to wound the dragon, but the dragon manages to kill him. One of his men, Wiglaf, is tasked with defeating the dragon afterwards.

Why is the captain worried about his safety and the safety of the two women?

aleksley [76]

According to the text Beowulf, what is the "unremembered, ancestral crime" referenced on page 11?

tankabanditka [31]

“The unremembered, ancestral crime” refers to the murder committed by Cain against his brother Abel, in the Judeo-Christian view refered in the Genesis in the Bible.

Can be interpreted both as the crime against another person (brother in humankind) as well as an interpretation of the evil of jealousy, among equals.

The Beowulf manuscript has according to some authors, its origins in pagan folklore which were unified by a Cristian copyist, who “imprinted” his view and related ancient thoughts to the dominant religious influence at the time: the Judeo-Christian perspective.
