Beowulf told in Anglo-Saxon society (1 gen 700 anni – 1 gen 975 anni)

Descrizione:

From what was likely its first telling just before or during the Christianization of England until its transcription, Beowulf was told in Anglo-Saxon society with erratic consistency. While England was still mostly Pagan, the tale would have been very popular, told by scops [sh-OH-pes], the Anglo-Saxon bards. However, its popularity would wane in later years, as it was told less in favor of Christian stories and legends.
