There are many themes in Beowulf, friendship, family, bravery, brain versus brawn, just to name a few. The most important though, I believe is the idea that everyone has the ability for goodness and evil in them. Beowulf chose to use himself for good. It is the oldest story in the English language, and an ultimate battle of good versus evil.
