This article offers a fresh view on the story Beowulf. As it begins it talks about the cultural origins of the Beowulf story. Afterwards it proceeds to go through a run down of the main points of the Beowulf story and events following. That being said this is nothing new, it is when the article looks at the types of evil aspects in the story that the fresh look really takes shape. The article uses modern thinking to compare to the story. By the use of this concept, we are able to more relate to the story. we are able to better understand it. The article compares Beowulf and Grendel as if they were boxers going into a title match in a way. It describes the stats in detail. On top of that, the article examines the psychological aspects of the story and characters.

I chose to post the entry created by Addy Walker in 4th period that she used for her Grendel musical. She used the song Eye Of The Tiger by Survivor. I felt that she tied the lyrics of the song and the events of the story together quite well. She used the lyrics of the song to explain Grendel's thought and i though this action was very creative. She was able to make the progression of the song go hand in hand with the progression of the story, by doing this she was able to create a spectacular post.

For my musical i chose the song Waves by Electric Guest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehPDI1cHNu8

While this song is not about Beowulf in any way shape or form, i feel that some of its lyrics accurately describe the Grendel. The song opens with the lyrics, "I know I, I wont make it dont know what to do". when i heard this i related it to the Grendel knowing his end was near when he saw Beowulf arrive. The song then talks about how love is easy for others and how everyone else is full of glee. I related this to the Grendel in that fact that he has no love for anything and nobody loves him. Hrothgar's warriors are full of glee but not the Grendel. Finally the song says "treat me like you do I think its time for you to go". I saw a relation to Beowulf in the fact that Hrothgar's warriors earlier in life killed the Grendel's father and he's finally tired of them and he's going to get rid of them.

The Grendel is described as being "spawned in slime". He was "conceived by a pair of monsters spawned from Cain killing Abel". I interpret this to mean the Grendel is one scary and gruesome monster. He's humanoid and walks upright like a man, but is far from one, at least he is now anyway. In the story Grendel is able to enter the mead hall unnoticed but also is able to snack on 30 men. With this in mind, The Grendel would have to be large and powerful, but small enough to fit through a human sized door. While he may or may not have been human at one time, he's certainly a beast now. He also possesses a set of eerily yellow eyes and a set of razor sharp teeth. The Grendel's appearance is truly terrifying.
