Describe the personal characteristics that makes Grendel an antagonist in Beowulf
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.

The author's choice to tell the story from the children's perspectives is effective. The children do not have the same prejudices and concerns that the adults have. As a result, they are open to one another and become friends despite their differences. They provide the reader with unbiased insight into what is happening on the mainland and on Malaga Island.
Hello. The correct question for the answer posted above is:
The author chose to tell this story from the perspective of children, rather than adults. Is this strategy effective for recounting the story of the injustice done to the people of Malaga Island? Write three to four sentences to support your position, and include details from the story.
Answer:
The strategy chosen by the author is effective.
Explanation:
As stated above, children are not afraid to use their words and are very truthful because they have no reason, modesty, shame or manipulation when they decide to tell a story. They tell a story as it actually happened, often, in minute detail, as they are very observant.
So when the author decides to tell the story from the children's perspective, he wants to tell a story as true and impartial as they are. So yes, this strategy was effective in telling what happened on the island of Malaga.
Read this excerpt from “Poor Harold.”
A room in Washington Square South. By the light of a candle, a young man in tousled hair and dressing gown is writing furiously at a little table. A clock within strikes seven.
A door at the back opens, and a young woman looks in, sleepily. She frowns. The young man looks up guiltily.
SHE. What are you doing?
HE. (innocently) Writing.
SHE. So I see. (She comes in, and sits down. It may be remarked that a woman's morning appearance, in dishabille, is a severe test of both looks and character; she passes that test triumphantly. She looks at the young man, and asks) – Poetry?
HE. (hesitatingly) No. . . .
SHE. (continues to look inquiry).
HE. (finally) A letter. . . .
SHE. (inflexibly) – To whom?
HE. (defiantly) To my wife!
SHE. Oh! That's all right. I thought perhaps you were writing to your father.
HE. (bitterly) My father! Why should I write to my father? Isn't it enough that I have broken his heart and brought disgrace upon him in his old age –
SHE. Disgrace? Nonsense! Anybody might be named as a co-respondent in a divorce case.
HE. Not in Evanston, Illinois. Not when you are the local feature of a notorious Chicago scandal. Not when your letters to the lady are published in the newspapers. – Oh, those letters!
SHE. Were they such incriminating letters, Harold?
HAROLD. Incriminating? How can you ask that, Isabel? They were perfectly innocent letters, such as any gentleman poet might write to any lady poetess. How was I to know that a rather plain-featured woman I sat next to at a Poetry Dinner in Chicago was conducting a dozen love-affairs? How was I to know that my expressions of literary regard would look like love-letters to her long-suffering husband? That's the irony of it: I'm perfectly blameless.

excerpt from The Story of My Life
by Helen Keller
At the age of 18 months, Helen Keller was rendered deaf and blind. Unable to read, write, or speak, it was thought that Helen would never be able to communicate. "The Story of My Life" describes Helen's education with Anne Sullivan and the unorthodox teaching methods that enabled her to learn how to communicate and thrive.
We read and studied out of doors, preferring the sunlit woods to the house. All my early lessons have in them the breath of the woods—the fine, resinous odour of pine needles, blended with the perfume of wild grapes. Seated in the gracious shade of a wild tulip tree, I learned to think that everything has a lesson and a suggestion. “The loveliness of things taught me all their use.” Indeed, everything that could hum, or buzz, or sing, or bloom had a part in my education—noisy-throated frogs, katydids and crickets held in my hand until forgetting their embarrassment, they trilled their reedy note, little downy chickens and wildflowers, the dogwood blossoms, meadow-violets and budding fruit trees. I felt the bursting cotton-bolls and fingered their soft fiber and fuzzy seeds; I felt the low soughing of the wind through the cornstalks, the silky rustling of the long leaves, and the indignant snort of my pony, as we caught him in the pasture and put the bit in his mouth—ah me! how well I remember the spicy, clovery smell of his breath!
Sometimes I rose at dawn and stole into the garden while the heavy dew lay on the grass and flowers. Few know what joy it is to feel the roses pressing softly into the hand, or the beautiful motion of the lilies as they sway in the morning breeze. Sometimes I caught an insect in the flower I was plucking, and I felt the faint noise of a pair of wings rubbed together in a sudden terror, as the little creature became aware of a pressure from without.
Another favourite haunt of mine was the orchard, where the fruit ripened early in July. The large, downy peaches would reach themselves into my hand, and as the joyous breezes flew about the trees the apples tumbled at my feet. Oh, the delight with which I gathered up the fruit in my pinafore, pressed my face against the smooth cheeks of the apples, still warm from the sun, and skipped back to the house!
Our favourite walk was to Keller's Landing, an old tumbledown lumber-wharf on the Tennessee River, used during the Civil War to land soldiers. There we spent many happy hours and played at learning geography. I built dams of pebbles, made islands and lakes, and dug river-beds, all for fun, and never dreamed that I was learning a lesson. I listened with increasing wonder to Miss Sullivan's descriptions of the great round world with its burning mountains, buried cities, moving rivers of ice, and many other things as strange. She made raised maps in clay, so that I could feel the mountain ridges and valleys, and follow with my fingers the devious course of rivers. I liked this, too; but the division of the earth into zones and poles confused and teased my mind. The illustrative strings and the orange stick representing the poles seemed so real that even to this day the mere mention of temperate zone suggests a series of twine circles; and I believe that if any one should set about it he could convince me that white bears actually climb the North Pole.

What is Imagery?Poets, novelists, and other authors utilize imagery in their language to summon up certain mental images in the reader. It is claimed to be a state in which sensory perceptions of the outside world are present.
The attitude of the author while writing is expressed in any literary work's tone. This illustrates the writer's moods and emotions as they guided their word choice for idea expression.
As a plot device used to arouse the reader's interest and keep them engaged, suspense is referred to as one of the story's elements. Conflicting events that are presented through the use of flashbacks can heighten the suspense in the narrative and surprise the viewer.
An atmosphere is created by color and lighting, while suspense is created by specific aspects of an image.
