“The Battle with Grendel’s Mother”
1. In what ways does Beowulf seem superhuman? How have previous parts of the story attempted to prepare us for this?

3. How is Beowulf’s fight with Grendel’s mother different from his fight with Grendel?

4. What 2 (apparently) supernatural aids does Beowulf receive in his battle in the underwater cave?

5. Contrast the Danes and Geats reaction when Beowulf doesn’t return immediately. What does this reveal about the two tribes?

6. What does Beowulf bring back from the watery cave? Why do you think he brings back just these items?
