For tomorrow's commentary you can choose to answer one of the following questions:
1. What are the qualities of the Anglo-Saxon epic hero? How are those qualities represented in Beowulf?
2. How does the Anglo-Saxon hero compare with the Mesopotamian hero (Gilgamesh) or the Greek hero (Odysseus)? The modern hero?
Please be sure to bring copies of the Beowulf text in addition to any notes you may want to use.
You must also bring in one outside source for this commentary (a newspaper article, a book, etc.) and you must cite from this source! If using an article, please staple a copy of the article to your commentary. Be sure to also cite Beowulf as well.
