Beowulf's Weapon: Poem Analysis
He say he wasn't going to use weapons. I mean, in the poem, Beowulf said the reason Grendel didn't use weapons because his mind was frenzied, primal, and unorganized. This means that Grendel doesn't use any tools in combat at all. I think that includes chains and doors. If Beowulf wanted to be fair, he should have tried to take off Grendel's.. So his clothes is considered a weapon? Wow, the movie's just trying to find some excuse to have his clothes off KIDDING He used a door and a chain... And they used a weapon to pin the chain to the pole.... I've read the book and I hear the movie does a terrible job portraying the real story. Didn't he rip Grendel's arm off with his bare hands? That would have been more awesome than him running around
