The story of Beowulf is a heroic epic that recorded the excellent behavior of the great Geatish warrior Beowulf who sailed the sea to destroy Dane's evil monster Grendel who was raging and was threatening the kingdom. Beowulf is blessed for his heroic act, as his heroic act can destroy devil-like monsters and stop the tragedy of their evil. . In epic, the author Beowulf depicts Glendell as a cold beast that flourishes in the sufferings of others. Many people oppose Glendell's simplification and prejudice and his role in epics. John Gardner began making changes in his book "Glendale".
Therefore, Grendel is seen as a descendant of an individual who expresses resentment and malice in Beowulf. The author insists that Glendell has exiled and is considered "an enemy of humanity" (Rafael, 22). Grendel is the representative of all evil, he was declared as "evil shepherd and guardian of crime" (Raffel, 33), Beowulf's Dane. The author explains Glendell as an evil, cruel, indifferent and happy person who attacks and attacks Hrothgar. The author depicts the malice of Glendell who painted a terrible picture of the attack on Glendell 's myriad Mead Hall that showed Glendell is a merciless, greedy and violent murder. Mead Hall separates them, cuts the body finely and pulls blood out of the vein. The author explains Grendel's greed, and Grendel's idea says "It is as fast as his greed and nails" (Raffel, 21). He explained Grundel as "shining in the dark, burning with a bad light", a fast hard nail, and a sharp teeth outlining the terrible appearance of Glenn in the minds of the reader. Compared to the story of Glendell, John Gardner's novel, Beowulf's tradition, Grendel is not depicted as a monster but an intellectual creature that provides human thought, emotion, and speech. John Gardner depicts Glendell as unmanned
A comparison of Beowulf and Gardner 's Grundel' s novel "Glendel" by John Gardner is drawing a different picture from Glendell 's epic Beowulf. Grendel is a nonhuman with human qualities. There is no explanation about the type of Glendell or the type of Glendell in any story. The only idea about the reader's view about Glendell is the little advice given by the author. - Beowulf, Grendel, Macbeth 's fate played an important role in the ancient British epic Beowulf and William Shakespeare' s play Macbeth. It is said that the main event of this poem such as Beowulf's third killing and his own death was destined. In Macbeth, fate is so important that it is shaped by strange sisters that push drama actions. However, if there is a reservation, there must be an agent to decide fate.
In the epic "Beowulf", I read about three fights between Beowulf and Glendell, Glendell's mother and Dragon. In all three battles, Beowulf could not defeat the enemy with any sort of deadly weapon. When he fought Glendell, his soldiers tried to hurt Glendell with their weapons, but this did not hurt him, so Beowulf had only to barefoot. In the second fight with Glendel's mother, he tried to kill Glendell's mother with a sacred sword that did not affect her. In the last fight, his shield melted from the flame of the dragon, and when he tried to attack the dragon his sword broke. The last resemblance lies in the most part of Beowulf's fight he fights alone. In Mead's Hall, Beowulf's man tried to regain Glendell but did not let him go, but it was Grendel who fought him and tore his arms. In the second fight, when he went to fight Grundel's mother, he went alone.
The explanation of the fight between Beowulf and Grendel is quite different from the explanation of Beowulf and Grendel's mother's battle. In the fight against Glendell, Beowulf relied on his god to give strength, in the fight with Grundell's mother he was relying on, and saved by his war equipments. Indeed, if his armor did not protect him, the mother of Glendell would have defeated Beowulf several times in battle. Beowulf's way of defeating Glendell was different from how he defeated Glend
