Anglo Saxon Poetry. Three famous Poems of the Anglo Saxons

In this episode, we read three Anglo Saxon Poems. We start with the Seafarer, then move on to the Wife's lament and finally moving on to the Wanderer. All of these poems are very well known and show a way of thought that is no longer with us. The poems hint at life and how it was lived, They also delve into depression and unbalanced psychosis. These poems were written by people who knew similar people to those in the poems. I hope you enjoy the episode.
