Analyzing Beowulf: Kennings and Personal Reflection

In this lesson, we aim to analyze and draw conclusions about specific sections in the epic poem "Beowulf." We will explore the definition of kennings, poetic metaphorical phrases used in Old English literature, and identify examples in our reading. Today's agenda includes a journal entry reflecting on how you wish to be remembered, a discussion on kennings, and reading pages 24-29 of "Beowulf" while answering essential study guide questions. Let’s engage with the text and reflect on our legacies.
