BEOWULF



The epic poem Beowulf talks about a young warrior: Beowulf. He comes to the aid of the king of the Danes, Hrothgar, whose kingdom is being terrorized by a monster who is called Grendel. Beowulf uses all his strength and bravery to slay Grendel and also his mother. Beowulf kills him and his fame spreads, so later he becomes the king of Geatland and rules for fifty years. When a dragon begins to pose a threat to his land, Beowulf and his servant Wiglaf try to kill him. They succeed in slaying the dragon, but Beowulf dies during the process.
