Grendel
Grendel is a very intelligent monster with very mean characteristics. In the story Beowulf, Grendel could walk into a room and kill hundreds of people at a time. He was a very vicious and horrible monster. Grendel sought acceptance, and because he did not receive it he became a cave dwelling carnivorous, creature. In the poem Beowulf, Grendel is a miserable and lonely monster, which has a very grotesque appearance, but in reality is quite human on the inside. In medieval times a monster, was no more than a person, with serious birth defects causing them to look hideous and monstrous. Like any other human being after many years of rejection one starts to act as a monster and display the nature of ones temper. Being outsiders caused Grendel along with all the other monsters to become very unpleasant and not accepted my society. The birth defects were a sign from god, telling all living things that
Grendel's mother possesses fewer human characteristics than Grendel and seeks vengeance on Herot. He is a hideous beast and also has no heart and passion that should possess a normal human being. A great feast is brought to celebrate the honor of Beowulf and after the feast Grendel shows up, and Beowulf rips of his arm. Alas, mankind could not even consummate the expectations of a forsaken, cave-dwelling creature whose only hope was acceptance from society. Grendel is forced into the swamp to die. He has to scour over every man, woman or beast and have many colossal attributes. Caine being a depraved beast teaches Grendel only to be one himself. Children mock or repeat the actions of an adult figure; or in Grendel's case a father figure. He has to have many teeth to kill as many people as he does and has to have an enormous mouth and a broad throat. And thus when the human race fabricated war on Grendel, a being who by all rights was just as bright and even more powerful than the normal man, the monster responded correspondingly. He also has to have no sensitivity and have no sensibility to do such a thing. Beowulf is arranged to fight 3 dragons Grendel, the monster, and Grendel's mother in order to recreate peace in the kingdom. Grendel, whose only crime was being deviant, therefore, pledged to crush not humankind, but the hurtful elements of society.
