Some may argue that Grendel is “resentment personified." He destroys because he is jealous. Based on your reading, do
you agree with this argument? Is this a metaphor for our own day?

I do not agree with this argument.

Explanation:

Grendel is portrayed as an animalistic, wild and cruel creature. We can see that Grendel has little rationality and, like a wild animal, his actions are driven by instinct, fear and threat. When interpreting the way the story occurs, we can conclude that for Grendel the Da*es were a threat to their territory and their integrity, they were enemies and invaded and competed for their space, needing to be exterminated so that his integrity was maintained.

Thus, I do not believe that Grendel acted out of jealousy, but out of irrationality and savagery to protect his territory and himself.

Grendel can be seen as a metaphor for our day. Because it represents the unknown of nature, which we are all afraid of, just like the Anglo-Saxons. However, we invade, threaten and withdraw the space of nature, seeing us as victims when it attacks us with all its fury and savagery. We see it as a villain and a cruel monster that needs to be defeated, when in fact, we are the ones who provoke the wrath of nature.

because each is self-sufficient.
