Describe the personal characteristics that makes Grendel an antagonist in Beowulf

Answers

Answer: I actually just ready Beowulf for my Brit Lit class :)

Explanation:

Grendel displays nothing but the most primitive human qualities in the original Beowulf epic. However, he is an intelligent and temperamental monster in Grendel, capable of logical thinking as well as unreasonable emotional outbursts. The monster Grendel also appears as human in the novel as the people he observes. This vague characterisation is reinforced by Grendel 's history. Grendel is pursued by the novel through three phases of his life. The first stage is his childhood, which he spends innocently, untroubled by the outside environment or existential concerns, exploring his confined world. His first exposure to the wider world is Grendel's exploration of the lake of firesnakes and the realm beyond it, one full of risk and possibility. As such, when Grendel moves into adulthood, crossing the lake is a critical step for him. When the bull hits him, the second step, which decisively makes Grendel an adult, happens, causing him to understand that the universe is basically unpredictable, follows no pattern and is ruled by no discernible cause. This realization, in turn, prompts the query that forms the adult quest of Grendel, perhaps the twentieth century's greatest philosophical query: given a world without inherent meaning, how should one live his or her life? Grendel attempts to address this question in the second, adult stage of his life by studying the human race, which fascinates him because of its capacity to create patterns and then enforce those patterns on the environment, generating a perception that a consistent, orderly structure is pursued by the environment. His deadly struggle with Beowulf and the weeks leading up to that war encompass the third and final stage of Grendel 's life. Ultimately, the experience gives a violent conclusion to Grendel 's quest.

Answers

Answer:

A : more accidents have not already occur

Explanation:

The narrator tells of what a terrible experience it is for children who have to walk along the road with cars speeding by at an alarming rate. He mentioned that it was a thing of luck that more accidents have not already occurred.

Sidewalks are meant to be a safer route for passersby. Since the students are at the mercy of cars speeding along in Green Street, that would only mean that there is an absence of sidewalks to protect them.

Answer: D

WHAT IS THE MAENING OF"THESE EARTHLY DIFFICULTIES"?​

Answers

Religious believers make the distinction between earthly problems and things that are far more important in the long term. For example these earthly worries have to do with material things, like jobs, money, cars, and houses — rather than spiritual concerns like love, faith, and beauty.

In one sense, we were huddled in there, bonded togethher in seeking security and warmth and comfort from each other, and we didn't know it. All of us—who might have probed space, or cured cancer, or built industries—were, instead, black victims of the white man's American social system. What did Malcolm mean when he said this?

Answers

Answer:

By this quote, Malcolm X suggests that whether they realize and accept it or not, the black people of Harlem are and will always be victims of a politically influenced white American society.

Explanation:

In his "The Autobiography of Malcolm X", Malcolm X in conversation with Alex Haley delves into his life, childhood, and becoming a human rights activist, especially for the black African-Americans facing racism. The book gives an insight into the life of the famous world of Malcolm X.

The given passage is from Chapter VI of the book titled "Detroit Red". This passage reveals the sad reality of the people of Harlem. Malcolm admits "we were huddled in there, bonded together in seeking security and warmth and comfort from each other" while it also became unintentionally that they were "black victims of the white man's American social system." The political reality is that even though they may feel like they owned the streets of Harlem, their act of coming into the 'safety and homely' nightclub make sit evident that they are still victims of oppression under the whites.

So, by this very statement, Malcolm seems to suggest and verify that they are victims of racism, and that it is not because of what they did but more of how the American political system makes it seem so.

Passage 1 and passage 2 are similar because both passages are promoting the new G2 tablet, They're different because passage 1 talks about the cons of your old tablet while passage 2 only talks about the pros of the G2 tablet. The purpose of both passages are to promote/endorse the G2 tablet. Passage 1 uses supporting details by saying "tired of the slow, glitchy performance of your old, tired tablet? " and backs it up by using examples of the cons of your old tablet as supporting details. Passage 2 uses supporting details by saying ''This convenient, portable, and useful device will help users run their lives while running their errands." and backs that statement up by telling the reader the pros of the tablet using that as supporting details.
