"Beowulf: A New Telling" is a modern adaptation of the epic poem "Beowulf." The main characters include Beowulf, a heroic warrior from Geatland; Grendel, a monster terrorizing the Danes; King Hrothgar, ruler of the Danes; and Wiglaf, a loyal warrior who helps Beowulf in his final battle.
Beowulf straddles the cultures of the Geats and the Danes. He is a Geat warrior who leaves his homeland to help King Hrothgar of the Danes defeat the monster Grendel, showing his loyalty to both societies. Beowulf's actions and heroic deeds reflect the values of both the Geats and the Danes, making him a bridge between the two cultures.
Danes is the traditional name for people from Denmark.
Tinney is probably English or Scottish; the -ey ending may indicate that it was an area settled by Norwegians or Danes (during the Danelaw), meaning "tin island."
