The theme of a fictional writing is to entertain
Germany had to fight to many upfront which lead to it's defeat
In medias res- in the middle of things
geats- people of southern Sweden
epic-long narrative poem about national heroes
Hygelac- Beowulf’s uncle
Grendel- the monster who pillages Heorot vill
Wiglaf- loyal companion of Beowulf
Wealhtheow-Hrothgar’s queen
mere- lake or pool
Wyrd- fate
The technique that this sentence best illustrates is understatement.
Understatement means that you are not showing the full 'strength' of something, but it is rather understated - so here, the coach only said that 'he was glad' even though his team won the Super Bowl, which is a huge deal. So his emotions should have been way stronger.
