What makes a hero endure beyond his age? In this spotlight on Beowulf, we explore how the memory of one warrior became a mirror for a people’s hopes, fears, and moral boundaries. With a monster at the door and legacy on the line, Beowulf’s tale opens our new season with fire and gravity. This episode sets the stage for our two-part premiere—and reminds us why some stories are never just stories.
