Grendel is the Beowulf legend retold from the monster’s point of view. In the
poem, Beowulf, a hero of the Geats in Scandinavia, comes to the aid of
Hroðgar, the king of the Danes, whose mead hall (in Heorot) has been under
attack by a monster known as Grendel. After Beowulf slays him, Grendel's
mother attacks the hall and is then also defeated. Victorious, Beowulf goes
home to Geatland in Sweden and later becomes king of the Geats. After a period
of fifty years has passed, Beowulf defeats a dragon, but is fatally wounded in
the battle. After his death, his attendants bury him in a tumulus, a burial
mound, in Geatland. Read more
