  • Number Symbolism in Old Norse Literature
    Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Medieval Icelandic Studies Number Symbolism in Old Norse Literature A Brief Study Ritgerð til MA-prófs í íslenskum miðaldafræðum Li Tang Kt.: 270988-5049 Leiðbeinandi: Torfi H. Tulinius September 2015 Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my supervisor, Torfi H. Tulinius for his confidence and counsels which have greatly encouraged my writing of this paper. Because of this confidence, I have been able to explore a domain almost unstudied which attracts me the most. Thanks to his counsels (such as his advice on the “Blóð-Egill” Episode in Knýtlinga saga and the reading of important references), my work has been able to find its way through the different numbers. My thanks also go to Haraldur Bernharðsson whose courses on Old Icelandic have been helpful to the translations in this paper and have become an unforgettable memory for me. I‟m indebted to Moritz as well for our interesting discussion about the translation of some paragraphs, and to Capucine and Luis for their meticulous reading. Any fault, however, is my own. Abstract It is generally agreed that some numbers such as three and nine which appear frequently in the two Eddas hold special significances in Norse mythology. Furthermore, numbers appearing in sagas not only denote factual quantity, but also stand for specific symbolic meanings. This tradition of number symbolism could be traced to Pythagorean thought and to St. Augustine‟s writings. But the result in Old Norse literature is its own system influenced both by Nordic beliefs and Christianity. This double influence complicates the intertextuality in the light of which the symbolic meanings of numbers should be interpreted.

  • Dennis Investigates Anglo-Saxon Dragons
    What does an Anglo-Saxon have in common with the staff at Lincoln Castle? They both love stories Dennis the Investigate dragon has been finding out Dennis The Dragon’s about dragons! about the history of dragons. It turns out that people way back in Anglo-Saxon times were telling stories Delicious Claw Cookies about dragons too! ~ Who were the Anglo-Saxons? ~ Well they were a mixture. Sometime after the end of Roman rule in Britain some groups of people who had been raiding Roman Britain turned up and settled down. They came from across the North Sea, northwest Germany, western Denmark and northern Netherlands. They were a mixture of tribes that included Angles, Saxons, Jutes, and Frisians. As well as mixing together, they mixed with the locals (though there was some fighting). Later on, when Vikings settled parts of England (especially here in Lincolnshire) the two groups mixed again. In 1066 the last Anglo-Saxon king was killed at the Battle of Hastings and the Normans took over. An Anglo-Saxon church once stood where the Castle is now. ~ Anglo-Saxon Dragons ~ In the year 793 the Anglo-Saxons wrote in their Chronicle that they saw fiery dragons in the sky. It sounds incredible to us, but it was probably a real thing that they saw. In northern Europe you sometimes see strange red lights in the sky; we call them the Northern Lights and we know they are caused by sunspots which are more active about every 11 years. When we consult the charts, it seems 793 is very close to a peak in sunspots, so the Anglo-Saxons weren't seeing things that did not exist, just things they couldn't explain so they thought the lights were dragons! (although, of course, we aren’t saying dragons don’t exist!) ~ Beowulf and the Dragon ~ This story is adapted from Beowulf, a poem from the Dark Ages.

  • The Norman Conquest: Ten Centuries of Interpretation (1975)
    CARTER, JOHN MARSHALL. The Norman Conquest: Ten Centuries of Interpretation (1975). Directed by: Prof. John H. Beeler. The purpose of this study was to investigate the historical accounts of the Norman Conquest and its results. A select group of historians and works, primarily English, were investigated, beginning with the chronicles of medieval writers and continuing chronologically to the works of twentieth century historians. The majority of the texts that were examined pertained to the major problems of the Norman Conquest: the introduction of English feudalism, whether or not the Norman Conquest was an aristocratic revolution, and, how it affected the English church. However, other important areas such as the Conquest's effects on literature, language, economics, and architecture were observed through the "eyes" of past and present historians. A seconday purpose was to assemble for the student of English medieval history, and particularly the Norman Conquest, a variety of primary and secondary sources. Each new generation writes its own histories, seeking to add to the existing cache of material or to reinterpret the existing material in the light of the present. The future study of history will be significantly advanced by historiographic surveys of all major historical events. Professor Wallace K. Ferguson produced an indispensable work for students of the Italian Renaissance, tracing the development of historical thought from the fifteenth to the twentieth century. V Professor Bryce Lyon performed a similar task,if not on as epic a scale, with his essay on the diversity of thought in regard to the history of the origins of the Middle Ages.

  • Who Were the Anglo-Saxons? Part of History Anglo-Saxons the Last Roman Soldiers Left Britain in 410
    Who were the Anglo-Saxons? Part of History Anglo-Saxons The last Roman soldiers left Britain in 410. New people came in ships across the North Sea – the Anglo-Saxons. The Anglo-Saxon age in Britain was from around AD410 to 1066. They were a mix of tribes from Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands. The three biggest were the Angles, the Saxons and the Jutes. The land they settled in was 'Angle-land', or England. If we use the modern names for the countries they came from, the Saxons were German-Dutch, the Angles were southern Danish, and the Jutes were northern Danish. Growing up in an Anglo-Saxon village Anglo-Saxon children had to grow up quickly. By the time they were ten, they were seen as an adult. This wasn't always a good thing. They had to work as hard as any adult and would be punished as adults, if they stole or broke the law. Girls worked in the home. They were in charge of housekeeping, weaving cloth, cooking meals, making cheese and brewing ale. Boys learned the skills of their fathers. They learned to chop down trees with an axe, how to plough a field and how to use a spear in battle. They also fished and went hunting with other men from the village. Only a few girls and boys learned to read and write. The sons of kings or wealthy families might be taught at home by a private teacher. The only schools were run by the Christian church, in monasteries. Some children lived there to train as monks and nuns.

    4/12/2019 Online Version 3/2019 - Google Docs Viking Runes Viewmont High School’s Literary Magazine — Bountiful, Utah — March 2019 A Message to Every Viewmont Viking by Aaron Butterfield To all of those who feel that their voice isn’t heard, The ones always told that when the winds don’t blow, Vikings row— But feel as if they are sitting aboard a sinking vessel. All around them are people pushing through, oars plunging deep— Those who have proved themselves strong— And amongst these people they feel completely alone, Worthless, Too weak to man the oar. Seeing the vacant seat at the oarlock were they should reside, They sit alone, feeling they have nowhere to go, Wasted space on a mission doomed to fail. To all those who feel as such, there is but one thing that you should know: We all have a place aboard this broken boat. Even those who seem so strong manning the oars are just strokes away from collapsing, Only fighting through the pain for the good of everyone else on board. Know that even if you can’t take an oar in calloused hands, there is a place for you. Though you may feel that nothing you do will keep the ship afloat, An encouraging word to those manning the oars Could be the only thing keeping those you deemed strong moving. Everyone has a place here. All Vikings. All in.

  • The Anglo-Saxon Period of English Law
    THE ANGLO-SAXON PERIOD OF ENGLISH LAW We find the proper starting point for the history of English law in what are known as Anglo-Saxon times. Not only does there seem to be no proof, or evidence of the existence of any Celtic element in any appreciable measure in our law, but also, notwithstanding the fact that the Roman occupation of Britain had lasted some four hundred years when it terminated in A. D. 410, the last word of scholarship does not bring to light any trace of the law of Imperial Rome, as distinct from the precepts and traditions of the Roman Church, in the earliest Anglo- Saxon documents. That the written dooms of our kings are the purest specimen of pure Germanic law, has been the verdict of one scholar after another. Professor Maitland tells us that: "The Anglo-Saxon laws that have come down to us (and we have no reason to fear the loss of much beyond some dooms of the Mercian Offa) are best studied as members of a large Teutonic family. Those that proceed from the Kent and Wessex of the seventh century are closely related to the Continental folk-laws. Their next of kin seem to be the Lex Saxonum and the laws of the Lom- bards."1 Whatever is Roman in them is ecclesiastical, the system which in course of time was organized as the Canon law. Nor are there in England any traces of any Romani who are being suffered to live under their own law by their Teutonic rulers.

  • The Concept of Identity in the East Midlands of England NATALIE
    The Concept of Identity in the East Midlands of England NATALIE BRABER Investigating feelings of identity in East Midlands adolescents Introduction When considering dialectal variation in the UK, linguists have frequently considered the North/South divide and the linguistic markers separating the two regions (see for example Trudgill, 1999; Wells, 1986). But it has been noted that this is not a straightforward division (e.g. Beal, 2008; Goodey, Gold, Duffett & Spencer, 1971; Montgomery, 2007; Wales, 2002). There are clear stereotypes for the North and South – but how do areas like the East Midlands fit into the picture? The boundaries between North and South are defined in different ways. Beal’s linguistic North does not include the East Midlands (Beal, 2008: 124- 5), neither does Wales’ (2002: 48). Trudgill states that in traditional dialectology the East Midlands area falls under ‘Central’ dialects, which come under the ‘Southern’ branch, but in modern dialectology it falls in the ‘North’. Hughes, Trudgill and Watt (2005: 70) contains a map which has the East Midlands in the North. Linguistically, the question has been raised whether there is a clear North/South boundary (see for example Upton (2012) where it is proposed that it is a transition zone). This paper revisits this question from the point of view of young people living in the East Midlands, to examine their sense of identity and whether this cultural divide is salient to them. The East Midlands is a problematic area in its definition geographically, and people may have difficulty in relating this to their own sense of identity.
