Clash of the Gods: Beowulf

H2 Programming:
Tuesday, March 19, at 8/7c


The epic poem Beowulf is one of the most widely read works in the English language. Clash of the Gods: Beowulf explores the significance of this literary classic, investigating how and why this tale of heroism has been so widely read for generations. This one-hour episode traces the central events in the poem as Beowulf and his warriors are pitted against an increasingly challenging series of foes. Radiocarbon testing, archaeological explorations and careful analysis have unearthed new information regarding the context in which the story was created. Did a mead hall much like Heorot, the gathering place for warriors, actually exist? Did a hero much like Beowulf once lead the Geats? This program examines these new dimensions to the Beowulf epic and provides an excellent visual companion to this landmark text.

Curriculum Links:
Clash of the Gods: Beowulf would be useful for History, English Literature and Global Studies courses, and for course units on mythology and literary theory. It is appropriate for 8th grade students and above.

Civil War Ends April 1865

April 1865
Friday, March 22, at 8am/7c


After four years of intense conflict, the Civil War finally came to an end in April of 1865. In just one month, the city of Richmond fell, General Lee embarked on his harrowing retreat and the Confederates surrendered at Appomattox. The nation was shocked just a few days later when President Lincoln was tragically assassinated. April 1865, a two-hour documentary based on the bestselling book by historian Jay Winik, traces this critical month in American history, capturing the concluding days of the Civil War.

Curriculum Links:
This documentary will be very useful in U.S. History, Government and Political Science courses. It is suitable for 8th grade students and above, including community college.
