<em>The Book of the Dead is</em> an ancient Egyptian funerary text, a collection of magic spells which enable the soul of the deceased to navigate the after life.
These spells were designed to provide protection and help to the spirit of the dead person. The afterlife was considered to be a continuation of life on earth. The spirit had to pass many difficulties and judgement in the Hall of True before it could reach a paradise. The spells were there to assist the spirits during the passage, giving them instructions and enabling them to assume the form of several mystic creatures. It also contained passwords necessary for admittance to certain stages to the underworld.
The spells were usually written on a tablet or a sarcophagus instead of papyrus, this was the reason why many copies survived.
A main difference is the context of the war. The American Revolution was caused by a majority of the America population becoming unhappy because of how the British were ruling them. The French Revolution started between the French lower class and the French government.
A monster like Grendel is an antagonist from Beowulf. A hero must be courageous and kindhearted to be able to defeat a monster like him. One must also trust his or her own instinct. The calmness of the hero defeated Grendel who is filled with anger.
