Answer 1

@SolomonZelman @charlotte123

Answer 2

you would think so, right? Beowulf is actually the night ... ! NO< but really he is not...
based on the story, did he fight/act like a night....

I really would think that Beowulf is not a "night" as the definition of it, but morally (as his character) and heroically, he is certainly a night.

Answer 3

Knight, not night...

Answer 4

great , thanks for the answer... This will help me with my compare and contrast essay, now I can say Camelot and Heorot are both similar because they hosted knights.

Answer 5

I said that according to definition he isn't a knight... however, you can say "hosted a hero"

Answer 6

Beowulf is a hero,
Beowulf is not a knight

should I explain myself (?) , (I can) !

Answer 7

well is Sir Gawain a hero?

Answer 8

REALLY ?

Answer 9

Well, you tell me ...

Answer 10

or did both halls host knights? I know heorot hosted knights.

Answer 11

Hosted the geats.... well, yeah , I would guess that you are able to call geats knights, but I usually picture a knight like "The Knight" Canterbury tales.

Answer 12

Sir Gawain is a hero... Beowulf is a hero....


....................................

Answer 13

actually camelot hosts knights... all I can find about heorot is "his band of young soldiers swelled to a swarm."

Answer 14

and "with craftsmen summoned from many kingdoms" but I suppose I will put that both halls hosted heroes.. thank you.

Answer 15

*a hero

Answer 16

yes, ik about Camelot, it obviously hosted knights....yeah, good idea to say that both hosted a hero

Answer 17

I don't remember the stories well right now.. but i am sure there are plenty similarities.
