Roshni Narasimhan Treasure as a Symbol in ?Beowulf? Epic poems were very popular during the Anglo-Saxon period. They were filled with stories of courage and bravery. One such poem is ?Beowulf?, which is about a warrior who heroically fights three epic battles: one against a monster named Grendel, another against Grendel?s mother, and a final battle against a fierce dragon. This Anglo-Saxon piece of literature is scattered with symbols which help understand the deeper meaning of the poem. One such symbol is the ?treasure? mentioned throughout ?Beowulf?. The symbolism associated with the ?treasure? changes as the poem progresses.
