Why Is Beowulf An Ideal Hero

Beowulf was a young man in the court, whom God sent to be a comfort to the people. He was very noble because he understood his fate. His fate was to lead the people do good deeds, making liberal rich gifts, so that his people could stand by him. He was not an arrogant person but he had an edge of being arrogant. Beside the fact any help with the people either it’s fighting in a war he did his best to protect and serve. He had strong courage to assist the King of the Danes, Hrothgar. The king of the Danes desperately needed his help when the huge monster Grendel attacked Heorot.
I would say he was the perfect ideal hero. He was destined and sent down from The Gods to protect and serve. As he is serving or fought in a war he understood if he dies in battle, he knew it was just fate. Beowulf was
willing to put himself in danger, and he accepts the challenges such of fighting the monster, Grendel, for the honor of assisting the Geats and to show respect to his father who pledged his case to Hrothgar after a fight had been settled.
Continuing I would say he earned the honor to be named a king.
Beowulf showed the people it is not about the work, but the good name you uphold. Beowulf’s character develops as the story goes along. It shows how each section he was preparing for the next objective.
Final part of his life before death was very sadden. When the hero spoke for his death’s speech his word follow” I give words of Thanks to the Lord of all, the king of Glory, eternal Ruler, for these adornments which I gaze here, that I was able to acquire such things for my people before the moment of death.… Whale’s Cape as a remembrance to my people, so that seafarers when they drive their tall ships from afar across the mists of the flood will thereafter call it Beowulf’s Barrow.”(2792b-2808)
His fate was to go down fighting while in battle giving it all what he have to offer. To his people he wanted them to know nobody ruled for fifty years the way he did and nobody approached his nation with allies in war or threaten with terror. Sick with mortal wounds, I can rejoice in all this; indeed, when life passes from my body, the Ruler of men has no cause to blame me for the wicked murder of kinsman.
(2738-2743a)
Finally he wanted to appreciate”… the ancient wealth, gold possessions, may eagerly examine the brilliant precious jewels, so that because of the treasure’s richness I may the more easily leave my life and country which I have held for so long.”(2749-2751)
