sammy [17]3 years ago

The plight that Hrothgar was facing was that of;

  • Having his men eliminated by Grendel. At this point, he had lost a lot of men who dared to challenge Grendel. This can be deduced from his words to Beowulf in these lines;

<em>What grief in Heorot Grendel hath caused me,  </em>

<em />

What horror unlooked-for, by hatred unceasing.

Waned is my war-band, wasted my hall-troop;

<em>Weird hath offcast them to the clutches of Grendel.</em>

(Note that the English Language used here is not the contemporary version)

In these lines, Hrothgar laments the horror Grendel had caused in his rulership. He had caused him a lot of grief due to his constant attacks.

He explains to Beowulf that his war band was wasted and waned because of Grendel's consistent grip on them.

This was the expression of the king who was now tired of the acts of Grendel in his kingdom.

Which detail does Orwell include to support the theme that
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The details Orwell includes to support the theme that dictators care only about themselves and not about those they rule is:

"Napoleon ended his speech with a reminder of Boxer's  two favourite maxims, 'I will work harder' and 'Comrade  Napoleon is always right maxims, he said, which every  animal would do well to adopt as his own."

Explanation:

Napoleon and Boxer are characters in the allegorical novella "Animal Farm", by George Orwell. The novella is a criticism to the Soviet regime in Russia. <u>The pig Napoleon functions as a representation of Joseph Stalin. Napoleon does not care about the other animals in the farm. All he wants is for them to work while he lives comfortably.</u> The most hard-working of all is a horse, Boxer, who is already eleven years old. <u>When Boxer can no longer perform, instead of retiring him and supporting him for the rest of his life as he had once promised, Napoleon sells him to a slaughterhouse.</u>

<u>Still, at Boxer's funeral, Napoleon pretends to care about Boxer. The animals are unable to see through this façade, but it is all crystal clear for readers. Orwell even includes the ironic detail of Napoleon telling the animals to adopt Boxer's maxims as their own. Every animal, according to him, should think of Napoleon as incorruptible, as the perfect leader, and every animal should also work harder. Napoleon did not care about Boxer and he does not care for the ones who are still alive. All he wants is for them to keep on working, ignorant of his immoral behavior.</u>
