Beowulf is a notable Old English poem that narrates the battles of Beowulf against Grendel, Grendel’s mother, and a dragon. It is considered one of the best religious poems because of its explicitly Christian passages and because Beowulf’s monstrous foes are depicted as God’s enemies and Beowulf himself as God’s champion.
