first recorded stories of the time‚ Beowulf‚ tells the story of a young heroic prince who defeats evil by having unwavering faith in God. The speaker uses diction‚ vivid imagery‚ and parallelism to juxtapose Christianity and Paganism and how Paganism is a heathen‚ ineffective religion‚ while through Christianity and faith in God anything can be accomplished‚ even the most impossible of tasks. The use of kennings and alliteration are ever present in Beowulf. In lines 62-64 the speaker uses the

Beowulf Beowulf is the single greatest story of Old English literature and one of the greatest epics of all time. Ironically‚ no one can lay claim to being the author of this amazing example of literature. The creator of this poem was said to be alive around 600 A.D. and the story was‚ since then‚ been passed down orally from generation to generation.

He seeks only for fame‚ and to be remembered‚ through the defeat
