Answer

Brief Explanations:

  • "Beowulf" is an ancient epic poem. "Grendel" is a modern retelling (novel) from Grendel's perspective.
  • "Beowulf" is an epic poem written long ago. "Grendel" (by John Gardner) is a 20th - century work. So the first option is incorrect.
  • "Beowulf" tells Beowulf's story of defeating Grendel. "Grendel" tells Grendel's story. Both involve Grendel's encounters with humans.
  • "Beowulf" is in an omniscient (third - person - like in a traditional epic sense) perspective. "Grendel" is in first - person (Grendel's). So the third option is incorrect.
  • Only "Grendel" (the novel) shows Grendel's perspective. "Beowulf" shows the hero (Beowulf)'s side more. So the fourth option is incorrect.

Answer:

tell the story of Grendel's encounters with humans.
