An Anglo-Saxon Hero was a war hero or someone that knew how to fight, if they needed to. then a hero was typically a strong man who stood up to anything dangerous and was really brave. Now a hero can be just about anyone who stands up to something evil, or helps something good.
Elegies are still seen today but they are in a different form. it is normally just told as a story. One important thing that would relate to others lives is it doesn’t take much to become ah hero today compared to the Anglo-Saxon time period.
