Stoicism in The Dreamer of the Rood

Christ originally was not portrayed as the master but was dedicated to his father. This poem seems to be able to receive his father's reward for the first time, after the heroic fight and the death of Christ, indicating that he himself becomes noble. Christ dedicated his loyalty to his father, and after his death he got a seat on his father's right hand. The cross is rewarded by His Lord Christ. The cross takes the weight of his master and he can resist, but he is killed, but he is rewarded by "decorating gold and silver" (77).

Characteristics of Old English Poem "Dream Dream" are divided into three parts. A dreamer 's first response to his cross - vision, an explanation of Rudd' s unique crucifixion, and a transfiguration and determination of a dreamer trying to save the cross. This poem opens the vision of the dreamer and builds the foundation of the rest of the poem. He saw the cross raised and covered with gold and jewels, but he noticed that there was blood on one side. Lad talked about his experience as a tool for the crucifixion of Christ and began to review it. As I noticed that Christ would be a tree to be crucified, the cross recalls that he was cut down in the forest and took away to the enemy to support the criminal and detailed his emotions. The cross declares that because of its pain and obedience it is heavier than all other trees; it orders the dreamer to teach others what he has seen and heard.

In the whole poem there is a strong proposal that a sovereignty relationship will be established between Christ and the Cross, where the Cross is a selfless bearer of Christ. This relationship is a subtle suggestion when a dreamer witnessed the cross and started bleeding from the right side like Christ and suggests a close relationship between the Lord and the turn. When the cross and Christ were drawn in battle, the connection became hard, and we obeyed the Lord's wish very much. When I saw / he thought "I do not intend to violate the word of the Lord". The corner of the earth trembles "(35-38) act of crossing him on the cross by piercing Christ as a subtle symbolic reference to his Lord's firm loyalty. This master-slave relationship later became Christian It spreads to the relationship of Christ, where it was confirmed that the followers of Christ were called "Christ of the Lord" (75).
