Read the passage about Grendel from Beowulf. For no cause whatever would the earlmen’s defender Leave in life-joys the loathsome

newcomer, He deemed his existence utterly useless To men under heaven. Now, read the passage about Hrothgar from Grendel. Meanwhile, those who paid tribute to him were forced to strike at more distant halls to gather the gold they paid to Hrothgar—and a little on the side for themselves. His power overran the world, from the foot of my cliff to the northern sea to the impenetrable forests south and east. They hacked down trees in widening rings around their central halls and blistered the land with peasant huts and pigpen fences till the forest looked like an old dog dying of mange. Which is the most accurate comparison of the two passages? From Beowulf’s perspective, the Danes are helpless innocents, but from Grendel’s perspective, Grendel is the helpless innocent. From Beowulf’s perspective, Grendel is a villain, but from Grendel’s perspective, Hrothgar and the Danes are the villains. Both Beowulf and Grendel think they are acting to save the environment from further destruction. Both Beowulf and Grendel think they are acting according to the will of the gods.

How do Monsieur Hamel's actions contribute to the development of both the theme and main idea within the story?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Monsieur Hamel's actions contribute to the development of both the theme and main idea within the story because he wants to show the students that no matter the circumstances, they should remember to not let the lessons they've learned go to waste.

In paragraph 30, it states,

"Thereupon he turned to the blackboard, took a piece of chalk, and, bearing on with all his might, he wrote in the largest letters he could: “VIVE LA FRANCE!”

Monsieur Hamel does not want the students to feel discouraged about the new life that they'll be forced into. He wants them to not forget everything and for them to continue learning French.
