It's hours till my bed time yet but I'm going to listen now and then again to night. I'm sure we'll never meet but your calm, intelligent, and well written stories have changed my life for the better. You never know who you'll reach but I'll bet it's going to be amazing when you do n

I am going to bed right now to go to an Old English seminar on Beowulf tomorrow, only to discover that this came out four hours ago. Didn't expect to do any more revision but here we are 😅
Thank you for this!! I studied Beowulf and the Old English language extensively as part of my degree in English Literature, concentrating on Medieval Literature. As I've learned more about Norse mythology, it's so interesting to see how elements of that as well as broader European mythologies appear in the manuscript. What I wouldn't give to have other manuscripts of the Beowulf legend to see how contemporaries viewed the story and how it changed over time!
I love to listen to these types of stories while I relax before bed. You perfectly blend history, culture, storytelling, and relaxing ASMR - thank you!
This is how I prefer to learn about Beowulf vs sitting in a hard plastic chair, at desk with the brightest yet dullest lights illuminating the room, in a classroom whose thermostat is set to arctic.
Hi! If I may, I’d have a suggestion for a future video: the history of writing I think is extremely fascinating and I think it would work well for your type of content
This is really encaptivating. Like, i was eager for more history than sleeping. Then again. I'm watching this in the morning before work. Great stuff. I love every bit of it
Thank goodness! More myths. I'm so pleased and already looking forward to this topic. Your myths and creation stories are always a favourite. My first experience of sleep stories that actually helped 😊
Great video. I've listened to portions read in Old English. Reminds me of a Scandinavian language. Recently purchased 3 different translations of Beowulf. Curious to see how the differ.
Hello and Bonjour. I have been a long time viewer and love your videos. Would you consider making a video on the history of airships. J’taime écoute des vidéos dans mon lit sur la nuit
to anyone looking to read a wonderful book relating to Beowulf, i recommend the novel Grendel by John Gardener!! it's got philosophical themes, emotional themes, and adds a load of reason to Grendel's actions!! :))
Fun fact, theirs a missing page of the legend of Beowulf that was destroyed in a fire in Ireland. But there are some archeological evidence of that missing page of the story.
A Frenchman talking about Beowulf before William and the Werewolf?! Covering 'perfide Albion' before glorious France?! You need to watch some 'Allo 'Allo.
Do you have ads now? I don’t mind them at the start of a video but they have sporadically appeared at the end and I just had one day in the middle of the video
There should not be any in the middle, unless you refresh the video. For the ones at the beginning and (sometimes) at the end, I am sorry. A few months ago RUclips made it impossible to publish videos without turning on ads. So I can no longer avoid them, except on all the videos before novembre 2023 that could retain their legacy settings and are still without ads.
@@TheFrenchWhispererASMR I refresh the video because I found it stops the ads at the end, I knew a day would come when complications were would arise. BS of RUclips, unfair that you can’t choose where ads appear considering asmr creators should have them at the start. RUclips and the creator both win this way. I really appreciate your videos, they put me to sleep quickly (and I learn). It is a sad state of affairs

Porque ya no volviste a hablar en español? Que paso?
My son studied Beowulf at school, so I've added this to our Anglo Saxon playlist. Thank you 😊

I looove the story of Beowulf and Grendel. So happy to tune in tonight ❤
As someone with noisy neighbors, all I have to say is I emptahize with Grendel more than anyone else in this story
Yes, maybe he overreacted a bit but this is relatable
“Few ever saw him and survived” 😭
Totally agree lol

I got lucky and had an awesome teacher who explained a lot so it made sense.. it's a tough read

Can’t sleep due to the time change but I saw this and immediately relaxed. Thank you for the gift of sleep 🫶
Wow 36min in and the scholarship is astonishing- thorough. Such respect!
Can’t wait for this tonight ❤. Read Beowulf at school and actually loved it so this will be a treat.
He is back with great historical stuff. Finally ❤

Read Beowulf in high school but forgot some details of this story
all in all, very relaxing😴
I always enjoy the visuals of your videos

Funny how he tells us to release the tension from our shoulders shortly after describing Beowulf ripping the monster's arm from its shoulder.
