The Dream Of The Rood And Beowulf Analysis

Greenblatt, Stephen. The Norton Anthology of English Literature: The Major Authors. New York: W.W. Norton, 2013. Print. The Anglo-Saxon period was the oldest known period of a time that had an art, and great large numbers of literature. The literary materials including: “The Dream of the Rood” and “Beowulf”. First of all, I will set some information about a religious poem called “The Dream of the Rood”. Jesus’ sacrifice story is mentioned in the bible. Also, old and new Biblical book mentioned it, although it was written in a different style. Also, the poem’s plot was framing upon Jesus’ base. This poem was written at the Anglo-Saxon time. Neither the author name or the date of composition is really known. However there were some scholars said that the poem was written

One of those works is “The Dream of the Rood” and the other is “Beowulf”. These kinds of writings evolved from that period often including many heroic and fighter and also involving some kind of underlying religious themes. The both works were mostly narrated by an unknown resource and eloquently worded. The central characters were brave and tough, faithful and reliable. In the two poems, the reader can see how these descriptions were illustrated by “Beowulf”, the “Rood”, and in some cases “Jesus”, all in a similar way. In my view of the point if these poems that were written in one book under the same title no one will probably guess that there are two different authors for them. The story massage for both as I think is to deliver to people that every one of us should be grateful to God and never lose faith and also if you died for someone that does mean you are sacrificing your life to help another person and this proves that you have enough courage to throw your life in danger to lead another life to the safe
