The Price of Defeating the Ultimate Evil Beowulf by Seamus Heaney introduces an epic hero named Beowulf, whose strength and power lead him to defeat many evil monsters. Beowulf displays his unconquerable strength when he defeats a monster that no one else can defeat.

The most notable example of America’s great fear of the perceived evils of communism can be seen during the 1950s.
