Beowulf Defeats Grendel & Grendel's Mother | Symbolism, Setting, Alliterative Verse in Beowulf

Join me in this video where I discuss what happened in the battle of Grendel and Beowulf at Herot, as well as Beowulf's battle with Grendel's mother in the lake. We discuss the layers of meaning surrounding symbolism in the epic poem and some of the finer implications as well.

*This video corresponds with the abridged version of Beowulf in the Holt McDougal English 12 Literature book, the version published in 2014. The video is reviewing Beowulf, pages 50-61.
