Beowulf's story communicates values such as justice, courage, righteousness, heroism, defense of the weak, honor and shrewdness. All of this is expressed in the way the hero Beowulf is involved in all situations where he is inserted.

These values are not different from ours, as they express characteristics applicable to our society and which influence the world where we live in a positive way. Justice, courage, righteousness, heroism, defense of the weak, honor and shrewdness are very admirable characteristics in our society and are encouraged as values present in the best people, those who can promote good, peace and prosperity, as well as Beowulf.
