Everybody kindly read the definition, class.
Yes, Miguel.
The story starts in Scandinivia. At King Hrothgar's
splendid mead hall, Heorot, was plagued by the evil
monster Grendel. Who terrorizes the Danes for twelve
years. Then Beowulf, a Geatish prince, arrives with a
few companions to help and offers to defeat Grendel.
Very good, Miguel.
How about the rising action?
Yes, Dane.
The rising action unfolds as Grendel attacks the Heorot
again, leading to his downfall at the hands of Beowulf.
In their battle, Grendel's arms rip off, and he runs away
to his mother's lair. Eventually, Grendel died, and his
mother avenged his death. Killing one of the king’s
advisers. Beowulf marches into his second battle with
Grendel’s mother. Beowulf struggled in their fight,
though he defeated Grendel’s mother with the sword in
the cave. In the cave, Beowulf finds Grendel's body,
beheads it, and brings the head to Heorot. The Danes
celebrate Beowulf's victory. He then returns to King
Hygelac of the Geats with his honors and princely gifts.
Very good, Dane.
Then the climax.
Yes, Marx.
After the King of Geats died, Beowulf succeeded the
throne. In his aging reign, one of his people stole treasure
from a dragon’s hoard. The dragon started to terrorize
his kingdom. Beowulf decided to deal with the problem
alone.
You figured it out exactly, Mark.
How about its falling action?
Yes, Gray.
Unfortunate, Beowulf can’t fight alone with the dragon.
His men run off with their tails and only Wiglaf remain.
With his help Beowulf win the battle, but he got bitten
in his neck. On his remaining time he bestowed the
throne to Wiglaf.
Very good, Gray.
Lastly, its resolution or denoument.
Yes, Caramel.
After Beowulf's death, his body is cremated, and his
ashes are interred in a magnificent burial mound, along
with the dragon's treasure that Beowulf had won. The
poem ends with a sense of mourning and the realization
that a great hero and leader have been lost. The Geats
anticipate potential attacks from neighboring tribes now
that Beowulf is no longer there to protect them, leaving
the future uncertain.
Well done, class!
Now, can anyone summarize the Beowulf?
Yes, Stephannie.
The poem begins with Beowulf coming to the aid of
King Hrothgar of the Danes, whose kingdom is plagued
by the monstrous creature Grendel. Beowulf defeats
Grendel and later, Grendel's vengeful mother. Years
later, Beowulf becomes king of the Geats and faces his
final challenge with the dragon. Though he defeated the
dragon, he was mortally wounded and died eventually.
The poem concluded with his funeral and Wiglaf
succeeding the throne.
