Comparison contrast
Medieval heroes and modern men are two very different people, but there are some qualities that link these two characters together. In medieval times, heroes had to rely on their strength. Beowulf had to fight all of his battles with his strength and weaponry. "Follower and strongest of the Geats-greater and stronger than anyone in his world"(Raffel l. 110-111). As shown here, Beowulf has to be reliant on his strength to help him through his everyday struggles. On the other hand, Ice Cube, a modern man, fights his battles with his intelligence. "Ice cube was raised in South Central L.A., yet he managed to attend The Phoenix Institute of Technology, where he studied architect drafting"(www. jediknight .net). Here you can see that Ice Cube is an educated man, who fights his battles with
Cube, as you can see, has been very successful throughout his life, although he has never killed a giant or a werewolf type creature, his success can be measured by the millions of dollars he has earned, and the respect of the entire music ind!ustry. As you can see there are differences that separate Beowulf from Ice Cube, but there are also similarities that draw these two heroes together. Ice Cube had the courage to come out with such a provocative album, when rap music wasn't well known or appreciated throughout the world. In doing this, Ice Cube paved the way for future rap artist to come. For example, Beowulf possessed the quality of heaving great courage. Ice Cube, much like Beowulf shared success, although Cubes success came through his music. Ice Cube's courage is different; his courage comes with being a pioneer of the rap industry. Here it shows that only death will stop Beowulf from being successful.
