Beowulf: Dialectical Journal 43

Theme of Religion

This theme can very confusing and intermixed at times. The story is told in early medieval times which is pegan as well as late medieval times which was Christian. There are clear differences throughout the story but in a way it makes for a more versatile epic. The interesting thing that the narrator does though, is makes Beowulf pagan, and at the same time makes him have major trust in and connection to God (Christian context.)
