Beowulf is seen as the most important and epic works of Anglo-Saxon literature written in Old English. Beowulf was composed in Old English, probably in Northumbria in northeast England, sometime between the years 700 and 750. These are someof the reasons why Beowulf is a great example of an early English epic.
Since that time many translations and retellings of >Beowulf's tale have. But fearing the beast, Beowulf requests a special shield made of iron.

What it is Beowulf (pronounce it 'Bay-O-Wulf', not 'Beer-wulf' if you want to be taken seriously) is an Old English (formerly known as Anglo-Saxon) poem. Beowulf was able to come out on top on the international charts just as it did domestically, but it was by a lot closer margin of victory. Hrothgar’s warriors were powerless against him. Beowulf is an example of using both fate and free will to live out his life. Beowulf also discovered Unferth's lifeless head hanging from a tree. If Beowulf can't win a match like that, Unferth asserts, he surely can't defeat Grendel. The protagonist of the epic, Beowulf is a Geatish hero who fights the monster Grendel, Grendel’s mother, and a fire-breathing dragon. “Then he who feared no man, the proud leader of the Geats,” said the author about Beowulf before he went to seek Grendel. As the introduction to this book explains, Beowulf, an Old English epic poem, was written sometime around the early 11th century when an anonymous author pinned 3,182 alliterative long lines of poetry following the epic deeds of the hero Beowulf. He also perfectly embodies the manners and values dictated by the Germanic heroic code, including loyalty, courtesy, and pride. Beowulf hits the dragon on the head and his sword breaks.
Shown through his interactions and comparisons with the other characters of the story, Beowulf emerges as a true hero of the old code. The poem is introduced with the great king of ancient Danes, Shield Sheafson who had rose to power and honored by many clans. Then he goes on and tells them who hes and that he is there to kill Grendel. Grendel, the monster, is seized with hateful jealousy.
