Answer:

The period from 1894 to 1915 was a period of change, unrest, and economic uncertainty for the workers of the United States. Industrialism was growing largely unchecked in the United States after the Civil War, creating new jobs and new problems simultaneously. Immigration was continuing in unprecedented numbers, especially from eastern and southern Europe, forever altering the makeup of the workforce. A depression had begun in 1893 (following two others in the previous twenty years), forcing some plants to close and many workers into the ranks of the unemployed. Disputes between labor and management were rife. But from these tumultuous years grew many of the initiatives that have continued today, including the increased presence of women in the workforce, workers' benefits, the prevalence of white-collar and retail jobs, and the need for reasonable work hours, vacations, and safe working conditions.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

"Beowulf" presents the men as happy, rejoicing in the praises of their leader through the minstrel's song while Grendel presents a more horrific and extreme behavior of the men in the mead hall.

Explanation:

The epic narrative "Beowulf" by Seamus Heaney tells the story of the hero Beowulf and his actions, saving his people and the Danes from the menacing Grendel and his mother. On the other hand, the narrative of the same story but from a different perspective, "Grendel" by John Gardner tells the story from the monster's side. This presents a 'voice' for the monster greatly evaded and feared by the people.

Heaney's text presents the men in the mead hall as calm and rejoicing, enjoying the party and satisfied with the praises of their leader. They were proud of their king's greatness and greatly accepts the exultations, happy with the song sung by the minstrel.

On the other hand, Gardner's version presents the men as wild and "howling and clapping and stomping of men gone mad on art", driven out of control by the minstrel's songs of praise of their leader. He concludes that they are "a fire more dread than any visible fire".
