Narrative Pulse of Beowulf
Hill, John M![Narrative Pulse of Beowulf](https://support.digitalhusky.com/media/annotations/sorted/200/20092976/CHSBZCOP0320092976.jpg)
John M. Hill discerns a distinctive 'narrative pulse' arising out of the poem's many scenes of arrival and departure. He argues that such scenes, far from being fixed or 'type' scenes, are socially dramatic and a key to understanding the structural density of the poem.
