The Frisians in Beowulf - Analysing The Battle of Finnsburh (2017x60)

Air date: Sep 02, 2017

Finally a video about the Frisians of old! One of our only sources for the early Frisians is the Finnsburh episode written about in both Beowulf and the aptly named Finnsburh Fragment. It's a bit scholarly and making a lot out of a little but I hope you enjoy the video!
