Question

In a response of two to three sentences, explain how the action described in the following lines helps show Beowulf as a hero.

"This early discovered
The master of malice, that in middle–earth's regions,
'Neath the whole of the heavens, no hand-grapple greater
In any man else had he ever encountered"

You must cite from and explain these lines in your response

Answer 1

These passages further establish Beowulf as a hero by highlighting his tremendous abilities. One example is seen in the lines, "Neath the whole of the heavens, no hand-grapple greater in any man else had he ever encountered" (Shakespeare). A monster who used to enjoy torturing people now says that he is the strongest of them all. This is a true sign of how strong he is.
