Answer:

Asked an incomplete question. Here's the full question:

What evidence supports the idea that the narrator's motivation is intrinsic?​

Read the passage from "Two Kinds."

Last week I sent a tuner over to my parents' apartment and had the piano reconditioned, for purely sentimental reasons. My mother had died a few months before and I had been getting things in order for my father, a little bit at a time. I put the jewelry in special silk pouches. The sweaters she had knitted in yellow, pink, bright orange—all the colors I hated—I put those in moth-proof boxes. I found some old Chinese silk dresses, the kind with little slits up the sides. I rubbed the old silk against my skin, then wrapped them in tissue and decided to take them home with me.

How does Grendel's characterization in Beowulf differ from his characterization in Grendel?
Bingel [31]

The correct answer is D.

In "Beowulf," Grendel is always the villan of the story. He is presented as a man-eating demon, who daily slaughters Danes and feeds on his corpres. He is never anything more than an obstacle for Beowulf to overcome.

On the contraty, in "Grendel," the reader can see different aspects of him. He is presented as an inteligent creature, capable of rational thoughs and emotions.

The story shows Grendel's changes and growth. It explores his relationship with his mother, his fascination with humans -which eventually turns into hatred and disgust-, and provides his point of view about the battle with Beowulf.
