Although you have not put the excerpt to which the question refers, I can help you by showing you how Beowulf presents an overview of the Anglo-Saxon worldview and culture.

In the epic poem Beowul we can perceive a worldview in contrast to the one we have now. While we see nature as a place of peace and tranquility, the Anglo-Saxons had nature as a dark and dangerous place. For them, it was in nature that they found very powerful and cruel monsters, like Grendel. These monsters were always willing to attack deconcentrated humans who entered their territory, for this reason, they had a strong concern with entering into nature, fearing being attacked by monsters.

In contrast, the Anglo-Saxons saw domestic environments as safe. This can be seen from the representation of the mead hall in Beowul. The hall show characteristics that Anglo-Saxons saw as favorable and safe, such as wealth, security, good food, good games, community, protection and hospitality. For Anglo-Saxons these factors were not found in nature, because they were not part of a hostile and dangerous environment.
