About this listen
From the Teutoburg Forest to Hastings, from Hengist and Horsa to Hereward the Wake, from ancient Germania to Roman Britain, from Germanic Gods to Christianity, discover the epic true story of how the English people and England itself came to be. Who were their Gods, legends, monsters and heroes? What were their customs, folklore, and traditions? See Beowulf in a new light, analysed and detailed like never before. Learn of Woden, the leader of the Wild Hunt, the forbearer of Father Christmas. Discover Woden's elite warriors, the Harii, Wolf-Coats and Berserkers. Through figures such as Alfred the Great, discover the emergence of English identity.
Like an old word-smith sitting in a smoky mead-hall of England's past, the author takes you on a journey of discovery, learn of masculine Anglo-Saxon warrior culture, the divine feminine weavers and healers, conjurers of magic and chaos, light and dark, life and death. Discover England's Christian and pre-Christian past in all its glory!
