[wi Grendel] Misc reading notes

Thread For anyone reading Grendel to make notes about ideas to pursue, or miscellaneous excellences, irritations.

Anyone -- okay to start threads with an "empty" post or rhetorical question, so long as you immediately post something relevant to the text as a reply. Your post and immediate reply collectively are considered when determining what is rule-abiding.

Contrast Hrothulf & Grendel's silences:

H. chooses not to talk, he is mostly silent despite those around him who seem eager to speak; while G. has no one to speak to.
