    I think that Hawthorne’s description of Dr. Heidegger’s study describes the four friends. “It was a dim, old-fashioned chamber, festooned with cobwebs and besprinkled with antique dust…” In this quote, it represents the physical characteristics of the four friends, old and wrinkled.

    My beliefs about the bible incorporate the written words which were inspired by God through the Holy Spirit to the human scribes as truth. To full understand the bible, one should understand the cultures of the people in the biblical world and their understanding and influences of the world around them. Scriptures are historical, narrative, and are factual. Some of the words transcribed by monks over the centuries may have lost some of the true meaning. The errors one find in the scriptures are

    Beowulf is the classic hero archetype, his personality and heroics lauded and replicated in literature to this day. However, the same cannot be said about the Northern Anglo-Saxon society that fashioned him. A thorough dissertation of Beowulf exposes a society principally centred on opulence, strife, vengeance, brutality, superstitions, and chauvinism although underlying positive aspects subsist. Often disguised as “honor, glory, might and wealth” battle glory, affluence and retribution were rudimentary
