Beowulf is preparing to kill Grendel's mother and restore order by avenging Aeschere and putting an end to the blood feud. His heroic view of life is that it is better to die with the glory of avenging our friends, than to live and wait for the life to end naturally, in peace. That is a true warrior's destiny: "Each of us all must his end abidein the ways of the world; so win who mayglory ere death! When his days are told,that is the warrior’s worthiest doom."
When research is conducted, two types of sources are considered for studies - primary and secondary sources. Primary sources are events that are reported firsthand like original artworks or letters from eyewitnesses and so on. They contain raw data.
Secondary sources are discussions or papers or articles, etc written based on analyses done on primary or secondary sources.
The print is a secondary source used for research that contains material/content printed on paper. Articles, books, scholarly journals are all examples of print sources.
