Humor and Suspense in the text is driven by the largely sarcastic voice of the narrator.

Explanation:

The tale is a classical retelling of an old myth of Midas and his blessing turning into a cruse.

It is told with zest and excitement and a sly tone by an unnamed narrator who is believed to be authorial voice of the book.

On the onset itself there is a prime example of what we are looking for.

<em>''and he had a little daughter, whom nobody but myself ever heard of, and whose name I either never knew, or have entirely forgotten.''</em>

Here the humor derives from the fact that the author does not know such an important piece of information.

The element of suspense can be seen from this quote of the book:

<em>Midas called himself a happy man, but felt that he was not yet quite so happy as he might be.</em>

This part of the tale foretells what is to come while keeping the audience in suspense.

It shows that he will be greedy but has not so revealed it yet.

Using the actions you have noted for Grendel and Beowulf, discuss how their actions in battle reflect the qualities of heroes an
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

  • There are always two sides of a story, an antagonist who serves the purpose of harming of the society and has the ambitions that can some how damage the over all peace and prosperity of the region, as inside this story Grendel is the monster who imposes threat to the different individuals across the globe and has a very bad or negative image. While Beowulf serves a much greater ambition by being there for the people to fight against this monster and then leading them against many odds to the way of virtue and development.And as he adds more value to it by doing great deeds that would be remembered across the generations and many would recognize these acts as the deeds of great valor.
  • As, the two of them are still remembered in one of the greatest fiction and being there in a place that still we remember Beowulf as a warrior of greater strength and courage. While, Grendel is there as sign for those who wants to harm any being and his story is very good moral for them and to learn much from the evil and good inside the story.
