Sleep and ASMR by The French Whisperer

The Legend of Beowulf, Anglo-Saxon/Germanic Mythology and ASMR for Sleep

Episode Summary

For tonight, I retell you the story of Beowulf, the famous Anglo-Saxon epic poem put in writing in Old English at the turn of the Second Millennium but probably older. Beyond the story itself, what does Beowulf tells us of its time, the population of England, the emergence of the English language, or the society that produced it? And what was its influence on modern Fantasy, starting with the work of JRR Tolkien?

Episode Notes

Fall asleep exploring the mysteries of History, Space, Mythology or Sciences. Every episode of the French Whisperer ASMR Podcast is a little adventure, under the form of a documentary, narrated in a soft spoken voice. It is the best way to get absorbed in a story, forget your concerns, relax, and naturally fall asleep.
