Beowulf Critical views • One of the oldest and most important remains of the Anglo-Saxon literature is the epic poem of Beowulf. Its age is unknown; but it comes from somewhere between the 7th and the 10th centuries. It is like a piece of ancient armour; rusty and battered‚ and yet strong.

My view of ugliness People used to perceive beauty as the ones pleasing to the eyes. Those who have straight hairs have them curled‚ while those who have curly hairs have them straightened; yellow and white skins have them tanned while black and brown complexions have them whitened.

Shakespeare’s View on Love Shakespeare’s plays are very drastic with how he ties love into them. Shakespeare always adds comedy or tragedy to any romance that might be taking place. For example in Twelfth Night‚ As You like It and Romeo and Juliet there is romance but he also puts comedy in there so love is not that easy. In the play Othello he makes it into a tragedy which makes the love even harder to take place. Shakespeare has always found a way to make love as complicated as he can which
