Another similarity for masculinity in chapter eight is heroism “The hero sees values beyond what’s possible. That’s the nature of a hero. It kills him, of course, ultimately. There is no doubt that it makes the whole struggle of humanity worthwhile.” Heroism involves courage, bravery, boldness, and many more. Grendel had heroic qualities, but was not considered a hero to some may be just a coward in the novel, but a reader could infer that Beowulf was perceived as a hero by the way he spoke and he seems to have the elements of what I reader might assume one would have for instance, a strong name, courage, patience, selflessness, et cetera. The last similarity to compare between humans and monsters like Grendel would be resistance in chapter two, Grendel says “I resist the world and the world resists me.” To resist something is to fear something, Humans and monsters may both resist but of course in different situations, a human may resist to tell their crush they like them because they might fear rejection or to take their driving test because they do not think they can
