Heoroweard is a character who appears in Beowulf and also in Norse legends, where he is named Hjörvarðr or Hiartuar. If he existed in real life, his name would have been Proto-Norse *Heruwarduz[1]. In the Norse sources, Hereoweard rebelled against Hroðulf/Hrólf Kraki and killed him, but otherwise the sources vary greatly. This is an account of the differences: In the paraphrase of Bjarkamál in the Gesta Danorum of Saxo Grammaticus, his army consisted of Swedes in one line and of Geats in another line. This information does not appear in any other sources.

  • Heoroweard is a character who appears in Beowulf and also in Norse legends, where he is named Hjörvarðr or Hiartuar. If he existed in real life, his name would have been Proto-Norse *Heruwarduz[1]. In the Norse sources, Hereoweard rebelled against Hroðulf/Hrólf Kraki and killed him, but otherwise the sources vary greatly. This is an account of the differences: In the paraphrase of Bjarkamál in the Gesta Danorum of Saxo Grammaticus, his army consisted of Swedes in one line and of Geats in another line. This information does not appear in any other sources. Several sources mention that he was married to Skuld, who according to Angrim's summary of the lost Skjöldunga saga was the daughter of Aðils the Swedish king (called Eadgils in Beowulf). However, according to the Chronicon Lethrense and Hrólf Kraki's saga, she was the daughter of Helgi (Halga), whereas Saxo is vague whether it was Adils or Helgi who was her father. Hrólf Kraki's saga does not mention where he came from, but according to Arngrímur Jónsson, Heoroweard was the king of Öland and according to Saxo, he became Hrólf's jarl in Sweden, whereas in the Chronicon Lethrense, he was German and the jarl of Skåne. In Beowulf, he is the son of Heorogar, the elder brother of Halga (Helgi) and Hroðgar (Hróar). (Consequently, he had greater right to the Danish throne than Hrólf Kraki (Hroðulf), and it is not surprising that he was the one who slew Hrólf.) He is mentioned only once, at lines 2160-2161. Beowulf, in the act of giving to his lord Hygelac the armor of Heorogar (which Hrothgar had given to Beowulf as a reward), repeats what Hrothgar told him: "No sooner would Heorogar give it to his son, valiant Heoroweard, though he was true to him..." He did not survive long after Hrólfs death. According to Arngrímur Jónsson's epitome of Skjöldunga saga, Hrólf Kraki's saga and the Chronicon Lethrense, he was killed shortly after. According to Hrólf Kraki's saga, he was killed during the battle, and according to the other sources, he became king but was killed the same day. (en)
  • Heoroweard è un personaggio che appare nel Beowulf e che compare anche in alcune leggende norrene, dove è chiamato Hjörvarðr o Hiartuar. Se fosse esistito, il suo nome nella lingua del tempo (il proto-norreno) sarebbe stato *Heruwarduz[1]. Nelle fonti norrene, Heoroweard si ribellò contro Hroðulf/Hrólfr Kraki e lo uccise, ma per il resto le fonti variano molto l'una dall'altra. Nella parafrasi del nelle Gesta Danorum di Saxo Grammaticus, il suo esercito consisteva di Sueoni per una linea e di Geati per un'altra. Questa informazione non compare in nessun altro racconto. Diverse fonti sostengono che fosse sposato con Skuld, che secondo il riassunto di Arngrímur della perduta Saga degli Skjöldungar era la figlia di re Aðils di Svezia (chiamato Eadgils nel Beowulf). Tuttavia, secondo il Chronicon Lethrense e la Hrólfs saga kraka ok kappa hans, lei era figlia di Helgi (Halga), mentre Saxo è vago sull'identità del padre di Skuld. La Hrólfs saga kraka ok kappa hans non dice da dove venisse, ma secondo Arngrímur Jónsson Heoroweard era re di Öland e, secondo Saxo, divenne jarl di Hrólfr Kraki in Svezia, mentre per il Chronicon Lethrense era tedesco e jarl di Scania. Nel Beowulf egli è figlio di Heorogar, il fratello maggiore di Hroðgar (Hróar) e Halga (Helgi); di conseguenza aveva più diritti di Hrólfr Kraki (Hroðulf) di ascendere al trono di Danimarca, e infatti fu proprio lui ad ucciderlo secondo altre fonti. Nel Beowulf è citato solo una volta, ai versi 2160-2161. Beowulf, nel dare al suo signore Hygelac l'armatura di Heorogar (che Hroðgar gli aveva dato come ricompensa), ripeté ciò che Hroðgar aveva detto a lui: "Giammai Heorogar l'avrebbe data a suo figlio, il valente Heoroweard, sebben fosse sincero con lui...". Heoroweard non sopravvisse a lungo dopo la morte di Hrólfr. Secondo il riassunto di Arngrímur Jónsson della Saga degli Skjöldungar, la Hrólfs saga kraka ok kappa hans e il Chronicon Lethrense fu ucciso poco dopo. Secondo la Hrólfs saga kraka ok kappa hans fu ucciso durante la battaglia, e secondo le altre fonti divenne re ma fu ucciso lo stesso giorno. (it)
