HELP ME PLEASE RIGHT NOW PLEASE!!!!!!! Although Grendel in Beowulf represents all that is evil, Gardner seems to take a different, more complex approach. Identify some signs of potential goodness in Grendel. What prevents these "seeds" of goodness from developing? What exactly makes Grendel a monster? Consider not only his physical appearance but also his moral and spiritual understandings. Where does Grendel find Evil in the world? According to Grendel, who or what are "the bad guys"? Who or what is Good in Grendel's eyes? Of what does that goodness consist?
Grendel had the chance to kill the women but he didn’t. He let her live instead. He could have been good but what hindered it was the way people acted towards them. They were mean to him and they made him a monster. He could have also killed Ork but did not.
