<em>To surprise the reader with a fresh perspective by offering an unexpected likeness in the comparison. </em>:)
(The author's purpose for using a simile is to surprise readers with an unexpected comparison.)
Explanation:
Three examples of imagery regarding where Grendel and his mother are:
- No one knows its bottom,
- 'Hunted through the woods by packs of hounds
- 'They live in secret places...'
<h3>What is imagery?</h3>
Imagery is a term that shows a vivid description of the events in a story. When describing the evil place where Grendel and his mother lived, the usage of terms that depict the place as not having a bottom and being in the woods clearly show that it was a strange and hideous place.
The place was also described as secret and this meant that it was not easily accessible or known to others. Grendel and his mother were not good people as seen in the story, Beowulf. This is also reflected in the description of the place where they lived.
The reader can imagine that the place where they stayed was weird. So, the phrases above connote a good depiction of imagery.
