Hi! Morwen here! Yeah I agree.. but there is the point that he could not marry her at first and Edith's family disapproved of him because of their religious differences.. Protestant and Catholic... hugely significant in in 1900s England... and Beren was a "mere mortal", so maybe Tolkien created Beren because he saw Edith as "more than human"?
It's the romance aspect.
_Morwen.
