Question

What does beowulf reveal about the way in which anglo-saxons defined evil and good?

Answer 1

Beowulf uncovers the Anglo-Saxons meanings of underhanded and great depended on good and social models. The malevolent characters in the ballad are depicted as totally threatening. Their activities are depicted as ethically wrong and hostile to social. Then again, great characters, for example, Beowulf live inside the good and social limits.

Answer 2

Answer:

Beowful, an ancient Epic poem of English literature, considered one of the main Anglo-Saxon stories; Beowful actually means "noble wolf"; the story highlights and celebrates pagan warrios values embodied in Scandinavian heroes.

Anglo-Saxon culture praised braveness, wisdom and God fearing, and was characterized by the belief in fate, a desire for fame, having a boasting personality and other traits such as the appraisal of loyalty and glory. Their ground for good and evil was moral and social standards; evil was associated with virulent and infectious characters who were also malignant and anti social, but Beowful represented the opposite of that, a benevolent being, the ideal of goodness "a noble hero".
