Dragonlore Issue 14 09-12-2001
An A to Z of Dragonlore—Supplement (continued) GLAISTIG, basically a female Urisk, from the Scottish Highlands. GUIVRE, a toxic horned serpent that infested mediaeval France, it was extremely bashful and would flee from the sight of a naked male figure, a weakness that, once discovered, led to its total expulsion by bold young men. HEMICYNES, dog-headed humanoids from the Black Sea shores according to Dragonlore the Greeks. HYBRIDS, new monsters are still appearing in stories and in heraldry, that The Journal of The College of Dracology combine features from two or more animals but often do not have a specific name of their own. Examples are a fish with bird’s wings and a lion with peacock’s tail from Switzerland, a salmon with antlers and a wolf-headed raven from Number 14 St Andrew’s Day 1997 Scandinavia, and the supporters of the arms of the Canadian Heraldic Authority with upper half of a red raven and lower half of a polar bear. ICE-MAIDEN, perhaps a frozen mermaid. JACKALOPE, a hare or jack-rabbit with antlers, first noted in Germany but later a popular diversion in North America and much favoured by pranksters. KITCHI-AT’HUSIS, a forty foot long water serpent with antlers and venomous fangs that once lived in the waters of Boyden Lake in Maine, North America, but was beaten and eaten by a Weewilmekq; it was possibly a protean shaman. KUKULKAN, a Mayan feathered serpent perhaps related to Quetzalcoatl. LAMASSU, Assyrian man-headed winged lions and bulls used as gate guardians LINDORM, in Scandinavian heraldry, a kind of Wyvern probably the same as a Lindworm though in folklore the legs and wings were often missing.

Re-Envisaging Masculinity: the Struggle to Be Or Become A
Re-Envisaging Masculinity: The Struggle to Be or Become a Man Some myths about masculine transformation, using the legends of ‘Parsifal’, ‘Iron John’ and ‘Prince Lindworm’ COURTENAY YOUNG Abstract There are a multitude of historical myths that Joseph Campbell (1969) called “roadmaps” to masculine development: many are out of date or (now) culturally inappropriate; most are ignored; and much has been forgotten. The Jungian analyst, Robert Johnson re-examined the Arthurian myth of Parsifal in his book, He: Understanding Masculine Psychology; additionally, the American poet and promoter of the ‘Wild Man’ movement, Robert Bly, uses the Brothers Grimm’s fairy tale of Iron John (Iron Hans) in his ‘lexiconography’; and there is also a dark and ancient Scandinavian fairytale called, Prince Lindworm, that speaks about the redemption of a ‘monstrous’ prince through the persistence against all odds and in the face of great fear, of a naïve and innocent girl. All these three myths or legends talk about the transformation of a ‘boy’ (or a potential monster) into a ‘man’. As with all old myths and fairy tales, there are numerous and varied versions – with different emphases – yet all with incredibly richness: however, they all have a common theme: possibly an unconscious one – the ‘struggle’ or ‘transformation’ that a boy has to go through to become a man. But this is not about the physical process of puberty; nor is it about a “rite of passage”; or even a social-cultural initiation; it is about a psycho-spiritual transformation that can happen at any time and that can be quite upsetting and provoking.

Dragonlore Issue 60 11-06-05
ROUGE DRAGON The little red dragons which dwell in the caves Deep under the mountains of Wales, They comfort themselves in the long, long night By telling the old, old tales; And they tell the tale of a wonderful king Dragonlore With a dragon gules on his helm, Who put down rapine and war and want; And his peace lay over the realm. The Journal of The College of Dracology And the dragons claim, from his dragon-crest All the dragons of Wales are descended; And they say, some day the king will return, Number 60 St Erkenwald’s Day 2005 And their long, long night will be ended. For the king will rule throughout all the land On Loegria’s ancient throne; And the serpent’s reign will be over and past, And the dragons come into their own, at last! The dragons will come by their own. From “Motley Heraldry” by C.W. Scott-Giles (London, n.d.) and kindly sent in by Mary Pierson. Scott-Giles was Fitzalan Extraordinary, and kindly signed my copy of his book, which I had forgotten all about until Mary reminded me. He was a superb heraldic artist, and illustrated all his own books and verses. (See the cover of No 1.) The Return of the “Dragon” Brand “With our thinning hair we notice how fashions change over the years. Shortly after the occupation, a quantity of enamelled cast-iron table-ware was discovered, and the favourite colours were mirror-finish, light blue and olive green. Nowadays fiery orange, chocolate and shiny black seem to be preferred, but why “Dragon” brand? Fire-proof, perhaps?” (Note – this entire section came in a dream.

The Legend of Basel's Basilisk
T h e Leg e n d of Basel‘s Basilisk Group 1: Read the story and retell your class colleagues the legend! The legend of Basel’s Basilisk In 1474 in Basel a cockerel laid an egg. Normally, cockerels do not lay eggs. But this one did and the people of Basel were shocked because of that. They believed that an egg, laid by a cockerel, must contain a Basilisk, a creation half cockerel and half snake. But this only happens if the cockerel is in the age of seven and the egg has been hatched in muck by a snake, called Coluber. This cockerel, back then was seven years old and his eggs had been hatched in muck by a snake, called Coluber. Therefore, the cockerel had to be killed. An executioner cut the cockerel open before he burnt it to death. While he was cutting the cockerel open, he found three more eggs. At this time, many people from Basel City and people from the countryside came to see him doing this. Vocabulary: cockerel snake (Coluber) Images: Cockerel =http://www.poultry.allotment.org.uk/Chicken_a/assets/cockerel.jpg Snake = http://a1.ec-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/49/8f996e66b7262d7370971b4ed778c7e8/l.jpg Group 2: Read about the danger of a Basilisk and how to kill it and tell your class colleagues about it! The Danger of a Basilisk and how to kill it Even though a Basilisk is not longer than a couple of handspans, a Basilisk is more terrific and more horrible than the biggest lindworm or the biggest dragon, for it can kill with a glance of an eye.

Diction in the Description of Dragons in Icelandic Texts from C. 871 1600
Diction in the Description of Dragons in Icelandic Texts from c. 871-1600 by Ryan E. R. Stewart A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of University of Manitoba In partial fulfilment of the requirement of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Icelandic Language and Literature University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2019 by Ryan E. R. Stewart 1 Abstract This thesis investigates the physical appearance of dragons as they appear in medieval Icelandic texts. I collected examples of descriptive diction from Icelandic texts to construct a pool of possible dragon descriptors. This pool, along with contemporaneous art, allowed me to construct a timeline of features that helped me evaluate common descriptions and to determine which terms correlated with others. The variety of terms collected present the Icelandic dragon as a chimeric entity, a being comprised from the anatomy of various creatures, including worms and serpents, fish and whales, as well as birds. When these features are consolidated, the Icelandic dragon as a whole functions as a symbol of domination that arises from a powerful and synergistic array of donor animals. Overall, this thesis shows that some previous translations and interpretations of the features of Icelandic dragons were misleading or incomplete. Correcting these translations and interpretations will not only help us to see the Icelandic dragon more clearly but will also help correct our understanding of their place in the global taxonomy of dragons. 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Birna Bjarnadóttir for accepting me into the program, as well as her oversight before transferring responsibility to Dr.

The Gold Horns: the Life and Religion of the Anglo- Saxons
The Gold Horns: The Life and Religion of the Anglo- Saxons Finn Rasmussen 2018 1 The image on the cover (figure 1) is a reconstruction of the two gold horns of Gallehus based on drawings. This book is aimed at students and graduates of History and Archaeology. In particular, those interested in the pre-Christian Anglo-Saxons. It provides an original analysis of archaeological finds and documentation of the Anglo-Saxon religion. The book does not presuppose historical knowledge, so it can be read by anybody interested in English heritage. The mysterious figures on the famous Gold Horns unveil how life was viewed among the heathen Angles. The two Gold Horns are the most precious find from Danish antiquity because the pictures on the horns offer a substantial explanation of the pre-Christian religion of the Germanic tribes. The Gold Horns were sacrificed and buried by a group of Angles shortly before they migrated to England. The migration of the different Angle tribes from southern Jutland can be traced to different parts of England. The Angles brought their view of life with them and this can be observed in finds from the heathen Anglo-Saxons. The most important of these finds – the Sutton Hoo ship burial, Franks Casket, the square-headed brooches, idols, amulets, funeral ceramics and drinking vessels – are described in the book as is a most remarkable invention of the Angles: runes and how the runic alphabet reveals the Germanic outlook on life. 2 Contents Introduction 5 The Find 8 Use of Drinking Horns 10 Runic Inscription 16 Migration
