This research paper: A 3 page essay that contrasts and compares Odysseus, from Homer’s epic the Odyssey, and Beowulf. The epic heroes Odysseus and Beowulf appear to be very similar. They each are featured in an ancient epic poem and therefore engage in heroic action. Also, they each can be viewed as representative of their era and society’s culture. However, these cultures had distinctly different worldviews and valued different aspects of human behavior. Examination of both texts reveals that Odysseus is presented as being deeply human and, therefore, initially having flaws in his character. Beowulf, on the other hand, is portrayed as perfect. No additional sources cited.
