What impression of beowulf does the poet convey through beowulf's open remarks to hrothgar?

The open remarks might portray Beowulf as loyal because he refers to his sovereign. he might be seen as courageous due to the fact that he might be ready to fight the monster and Grendel. Finally,  It could be said that he is proud of his heroic deeds and his fame.

The main themes of the play are: fate and free will with the inevitability of oracular predictions is a theme that often occurs in greek tragedies the conflict between the individual and the state similar to that in sophocles’ “antigone” and   people’s willingness to ignore painful truths both oedipus and jocasta clutch at unlikely details in order to avoiding facing up to the inceasingly apparent truth and sight and blindness the irony that the blind seer tiresius can actually “see” more clearly than the supposedly clear-eyed oedipus, who is in reality blind to the truth about his origins and his inadvertent crimes.
