Beowulf & Aeneas
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page essay that contrasts and compares Beowulf with Aeneas. Beowulf is the protagonist in an Old English epic of the same name by an anonymous poet. Aeneas is the protagonist in the ancient Roman epic of Virgil, the Aeneid. These two heroes each represent transitions in their societies. Beowulf provides the transition between a world terrorized by evil to one of peace. Aeneas provides the transition from the old world of Troy to the glory of the new world of Rome. In providing these transitions, each epic offers insight on the differing worldviews that each work represents, that is, the world of Roman values and the world of ninth century Germanic society. No bibliography is offered.

Beowulf & Odysseus/Ancient Heroes
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page essay that contrasts and compares Beowulf and Odysseus. The sagas of these two heroes seem similar at first glance because the ancient epic poems that record their exploits both deal with heroic action, battles against monsters and similar feats of daring-do. However, a closer look at both the Beowulf poem and Homer's Odyssey shows that these tales are each products of the culture that produced them. Therefore, they reflect different cultures, different eras, and different beliefs about what it means to be a hero. No additional sources cited.

Beowulf & Sir Gawain and the Green Knight
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page research paper that contrasts and compares the topic of heroism in Beowulf and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. The writer concludes that by the time that Sir Gawain and the Green Knight was recorded, the cultural paradigm had changed from one stresses the warrior ethos to a Christian perspective. No longer was it acceptable for a knight to place his loyalty primarily to his liege lord or to view himself in a heroic context, as his first loyalty was to God and, before God, he should be humble and contrite. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Beowulf and his Non-Human Opponents
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the fact that in the oldest epic poem of the English language, Beowulf, the hero does battle with non-human creatures. In part, the ancient poet uses the non-human enemies to underscore the fact that this is a story of great dimensions -- the heroic and the monstrous, the light and the dark, the human and the inhuman. Of course, in the end when Beowulf has become King of the Geats, he is defeated by a dragon, another decidedly non-human opponent. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
