Distributör: Religionshistoriska avdelningen, Stockholms universitet. Omslagsbild: Robin Kuusela 2017. Till minnet av min far, Mikael Kuusela, och min morfar, Gösta Jonsson. Förord Att skriva en doktorsavhandling är på sätt och vis ett ensligt och isolerat arbete. Oräkneliga timmar ägnas åt att läsa forskningslitteratur och källtexter, eller till att stirra in i datorskärmens kalla sken. Samtidigt är det en tid då många nya bekantskaper och vänskapsband knyts med ett nätverk av forskare från stora delar av världen. Många av de forskare som inspirerade mig under tiden som student och doktorand har jag fått möjligheten att träffa på konferenser och symposier. Det har gjort att det har varit värt all den tid och möda som lagts på att skriva det här manuset. Jag hade en doktorandtjänst i religionshistoria vid Stockholms universitet i två och ett halvt år mellan 2010 och 2012. Då skrev jag ett manuskript om jättar i fornnordisk mytologi. I tryckt form skulle denna text med råge ha överskridit 800 sidor. I manuskriptet samlades och diskuterades i princip de flesta tänkbara aspekter och källor som behandlar relationen mellan gudar och jättar i den fornnordiska mytvärlden. Jag blev dock aldrig nöjd med texten. Något saknades. Det stora materialet gjorde att det blev svårt att fastställa tydliga frågeställningar och att få till en logisk disposition. Om jag försöker att beskriva framväxten av avhandlingsarbetet med en metafor skulle jag likna den med hur en idé föds och blir till ett frö. Fröet planteras och slår med tiden rot. Det växer och blir till ett kraftigt träd. Trädet stöttas av många rötter och skjuter många grenar. Desto längre trädet tillåts växa, desto svårare blir det att se hur de olika delarna hänger samman. Trädet riskerar därmed att rasa eller att lämnas åt sitt öde. Doktorandens uppgift är att fälla trädet i tid. På samma sätt som hantverkaren måste doktoranden sedan karva, hyvla och putsa fram en form som är värd att presentera för omvärlden. För ett sådant jobb fordras vägledning av en mästare. Den mästaren blev för mig Olle Sundqvist. Under sommaren 2014 blev han min huvudhandledare och läste min jättelika jättetext. Med hjälp av Olles goda råd och synpunkter tog snart en doktorsavhandling form. Slutresultatet blev den här undersökningen. Det finns många jag skulle vilja tacka i detta förord. Viktig inledningsvis var Ulf Drobin, min handledare när jag skrev mina studentuppsatser om fornnordisk religion. Det var mycket tack vare Drobin som jag insåg hur fängslande och inspirerande ämnet är. Rune Palm (vila i frid) förtjänar också ett varmt tack, det var han som medryckande och inspirerande undervisade mig i fornisländska och runologi. Jag vill också tacka det högre seminariet i religionshistoria som hölls vid Stockholms universitet där många samtal varit entusiasmerande. För att undvika en lång lista över personer som berikat mina studier med diskussioner och samtal, drivkraft och otaliga kaffekoppar har jag valt att enbart tacka de personer som läst mitt manus och gett mig konstruktiv och användbar kritik. Alla ni andra vet vilka ni är. Ingen nämnd, ingen glömd. Jag vill särskilt lyfta fram fyra personer som kontrollerat mitt manus och gett mig betydelsefull respons. Henning Kure var den första som läste och kommenterade mitt manus i skrift. Han gick igenom ett större kapitel om jättar i kosmogonin. Även om kapitlet ser annorlunda ut idag så har de synpunkter och råd som gavs varit värdefulla och angelägna. Jens Peter Schjødt var en exemplarisk opponent på mitt slutseminarium i december 2016. Hans konstruktiva kritik, skarpsinne och stimulans har varit oerhört viktiga i slutfasen. Min biträdande handledare, Peter Jackson, har alltid varit ett värdefullt bollplank för idéer. Hans skärpa och förmåga att snabbt se brister eller fördelar med olika metoder har varit en god hjälp. Slutligen vill jag tacka den person som betytt absolut mest för mitt arbete: min huvudhandledare, Olle Sundqvist. Den ihärdiga hjälp som jag fått av Olle har varit handfast, konstruktiv, rättvis, inspirerande, outtröttlig och på alla sätt omistlig. Jag kan med säkerhet säga att om inte Olle erbjudit sig att vara min huvudhandledare, då hade jag nog fortfarande suttit och skrivit på ett manus vars proportioner till och med hade fått folksagans jättar att rodna. Jag vill tacka de personer som läst och kommenterat större eller mindre delar av mitt manus: Annika Karlholm, Eva Thelin, Kristina Hagren, Maths Bertell, Simon Karlin Björk, Kristoffer af Edholm, Martin Persson, Erik af Edholm, Marja-Liisa Keinänen, Sebastian Cöllen, Jessica Hancock, Frederik Wallenstein och Per Faxneld. För hjälp med engelsk språkgranskning och översättning av mina slutsatser vill jag tacka Helen Leslie-Jacobsen och Luke John Murphy. Cheers! Jag vill också tacka Torsten Söderbergs stiftelse för ett generöst stipendium som gjorde att jag kunde arbeta med avhandlingen under nio månaders tid. Den hjälpen har varit oskattbar. Även min nuvarande arbetsplats, Institutet för språk och folkminnen, har varit välsinnad och generös. Jag har därför kunnat arbeta med min avhandling under en månads tid, vilket gett mig den arbetsro som behövdes för att klara av den sista kritiska slutfasen. I Dialekt- och folkminnesarkivet i Uppsala har jag haft tillgång till ett fantastiskt forskningsbibliotek och till en bred ämneskompetens hos mina kolleger. Slut- ligen vill jag tacka min familj och min sambo, Marianne Roldan. Ni har varit ett gott stöd och ni har alltid funnits där för mig. Tommy Kuusela, Uppsala, 20 september 2017.

  • Hƒ›R's Blindness and the Pledging of Ó›Inn's
    Hƒ›r’s Blindness and the Pledging of Ó›inn’s Eye: A Study of the Symbolic Value of the Eyes of Hƒ›r, Ó›inn and fiórr Annette Lassen The Arnamagnæan Institute, University of Copenhagen The idea of studying the symbolic value of eyes and blindness derives from my desire to reach an understanding of Hƒ›r’s mythological role. It goes without saying that in Old Norse literature a person’s physiognomy reveals his characteristics. It is, therefore, a priori not improbable that Hƒ›r’s blindness may reveal something about his mythological role. His blindness is, of course, not the only instance in the Eddas where eyes or blindness seem significant. The supreme god of the Old Norse pantheon, Ó›inn, is one-eyed, and fiórr is described as having particularly sharp eyes. Accordingly, I shall also devote attention in my paper to Ó›inn’s one-eyedness and fiórr’s sharp gaze. As far as I know, there exist a couple of studies of eyes in Old Norse literature by Riti Kroesen and Edith Marold. In their articles we find a great deal of useful examples of how eyes are used as a token of royalty and strength. Considering this symbolic value, it is clear that blindness cannot be, simply, a physical handicap. In the same way as emphasizing eyes connotes superiority 220 11th International Saga Conference 221 and strength, blindness may connote inferiority and weakness. When the eye symbolizes a person’s strength, blinding connotes the symbolic and literal removal of that strength. A medieval king suffering from a physical handicap could be a rex inutilis.

  • OBITUARY It Is Announced with Deep Regret That Hakon Gruner-Nielsen
    62 INTERNATIONAL FOLK MUSIC JOURNAL OBITUARY H. GRUNER-NIELSEN It is announced with deep regret that Hakon Gruner-Nielsen, co-director of the Danish Folklore Collection, born 1881, died on February 24th, 1953. H. Gruner-Nielsen devoted his whole life to the study of folklore, especially Danish and Faeroese ballads and other songs, their texts and tunes. Having taken his degree at the University of Copenhagen, he immediately was appointed to the new Folklore Collection (1906), founded by Axel Olrik and others. In the field of text editing and investigation, Gruner-Nielsen was the pupil of Olrik, and he finished the standard ballad edition of Svend Grundtvig and Olrik, Danmarks gamle Folkeviser (I-IX, 1853-1923, and Appendix X). In the study of folk music he collaborated with Hjalmar Thuren, after whose untimely death (1912) Griiner- Nielsen was for many years the only qualified scholar of folk music. He published Faeroese tunes, collected by Thuren, older folklorists, and himself, and wrote mono­ graphs on this subject. Post-medieval Danish folk songs of different genres were published in exemplary editions, and in 1935, Gruner-Nielsen began the great melody edition of our ballads (Danmarks gamle Folkeviser, XI). This edition is a masterpiece of minute investigation and honest folkloristic editorial technique which, taking no liberties, publishes and comments on the material as it was taken down. Many students and scholars in Denmark and abroad have drawn from his in­ exhaustible helpfulness. His reserved but warmhearted personality will be sincerely missed. ERIK DAL-* GEORGE PULLEN JACKSON George Pullen Jackson (1874-1953), native of Maine, long resident in the South (where he accomplished his life work), was head of the Department of German at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee.

  • HAMLET's MILL.Pdf
    Hamlet's Mill An essay on myth and the frame of time GIORGIO de SANTILLANA Professor of the History and Philosophy of Science M.l.T. and HERTHA von DECHEND apl. Professor fur Geschichte der Naturivissenschaften ]. W. Goethe-Universitat Frankfurt Preface ASthe senior, if least deserving, of the authors, I shall open the narrative. Over many years I have searched for the point where myth and science join. It was clear to me for a long time that the origins of science had their deep roots in a particular myth, that of invariance. The Greeks, as early as the 7th century B.C., spoke of the quest of their first sages as the Problem of the One and the Many, sometimes describing the wild fecundity of nature as the way in which the Many could be deduced from the One, sometimes seeing the Many as unsubstantial variations being played on the One. The oracular sayings of Heraclitus the Obscure do nothing but illustrate with shimmering paradoxes the illusory quality of "things" in flux as they were wrung from the central intuition of unity. Before him Anaximander had announced, also oracularly, that the cause of things being born and perishing is their mutual injustice to each other in the order of time, "as is meet," he said, for they are bound to atone forever for their mutual injustice. This was enough to make of Anaximander the acknowledged father of physical science, for the accent is on the real "Many." But it was true science after a fashion. Soon after, Pythagoras taught, no less oracularly, that "things are numbers." Thus mathematics was born.

Kvæðin snúast mikið til um hetjur einnar fornaldarsögu, Völsunga sögu, sem reyndar er að miklu leyti afurð þessa kveðskapar. Um er að ræða átján kvæði; hin elstu eru að jafnaði talin ort á 9. öld, en þau yngstu virðast vera mjög ung, jafnvel frá 13. öld.1 Þótt erfitt sé reyndar að segja nokkuð með vissu um aldur hetjukvæðanna þykir ljóst að þau muni vera misgömul og þar af leiðandi hafa þau gengið mislengi í munnmælum fram að ritunartíma. Hetjukvæðin spanna efni Völsunga sögu allt frá lokum 8. kafla og til enda, og þótt telja megi líklegt að höfundur sögunnar hafi einnig stuðst við kvæði í fyrsta hluta hennar, eru slík kvæði hvergi varðveitt. þar með verður ekki fullyrt að hvergi hafi varðveist vísbendingar um tilveru slíkra kvæða, enda bera nokkrar — og þá vægast sagt heldur ólíkar — heimildir vott um það. Áður en ég sný mér að aðalviðfangsefni greinarinnar, þ.e.a.s. því sem felst í titli hennar og varðar sameiginlegt efni í sögnum um Sigmund Völsungsson og Artúr konung, vil ég gera þessum heimildum nokkur skil, enda málinu skyldar. Fyrst mun ég þó gera stuttlega grein fyrir því efni sem tilheyrir fyrsta hluta Völsunga sögu og varðar viðfangsefni greinarinnar (3.– 8. kafla).

    Satire and the Heroic Life: Two Studies (Helgakvida Hundingsbana I, 18 and Bjgrn Hitdrelakappi’s Gramagafltm) Scholars like Otto Rank, Lord Raglan, and Jan de Vries have pointed out a remarkably rigid patterning in the lives of many legendary “ heroes,” 1 and one of the most interesting recent tendencies in the study of heroic legend pursues such patterns to the influence of myth or ritual or, at least, to tradition in an oral culture.2 Another route to what might be called “ heroic conformity” begins with the elusive background in a heroic ethos, and George Fenwick Jones’ The Ethos o f the Song o f Roland can stand as a good representative of this more sociological (and hence less exact) scholarly direction.3 Strangely the two approaches—the one from traditional narrative structures and the other from the real-life ideological matrix supporting such 1.

  • Estudis De Literatura Oral Popular / Studies in Oral Folk Literature, 3
    Danish Folkloristics: between Philology and Ethnology Michèle Simonsen University of Copenhagen [email protected] Abstract This paper gives an overview of the most important scholars within Danish folkloristics – Svend Grundtvig, Axel Olrik, Evald Tang Kristensen, Bengt Holbek, Iørn Piø – and argues that, although most of them were originally trained in philology and mostly interested in oral literature, they were all, each in their own way, concerned with the “ecology” of folklore: i.e. its interplay with its environment. Who were the “folk” and what was “lore” for these scholars? The paper also tries to assess how Danish folkloristics deals with the contemporary shift of paradigm from folkloristics to cultural studies. Keywords Folklore; Denmark; Ballads; Epic Laws; Svend Grundtvig; Axel Olrik Resum Aquest article ofereix una visió general dels estudiosos més importants del folklore danès —Svend Grundtvig, Axel Olrik, Evald Tang Kristensen, Bengt Holbek, Iørn Piø— i sosté que, encara que la majoria d’ells van ser formats originalment en filologia i sobretot es van interessar per la literatura oral, estaven tots, cadascú a la seva manera, d’acord amb l’«ecologia» del folklore: és a dir, la seva interacció amb l’entorn. Què era el «poble» (folk) i què era la «saviesa» (lore) per a aquests erudits? L’article també tracta d’avaluar com els folkloristes danesos van tractar el canvi de paradigma des dels estudis folklòrics als culturals.

Printing: Háskólaprent ehf. Tromsø, Norway: May 2016 "1 Abstract The present thesis involves a study of the various ways in which the Northernmost regions of Fenno-Scandinavia and their inhabitants were depicted as being associated with the supernatural in pre-Modern literature. Its findings are based on an exhaustive study of the numerous texts engaging with this subject, ranging from the Roman era to the publication of the Historia de Gentibus Septentrionalibus of Olaus Magnus in 1555. The thesis presents and analyses the most common supernatural motifs associated with this Far- Northern area, which include animal transformation, sorcery and pagan worship, as well as speculating about their origins, and analyzes the ways in which such ideas and images evolved, both over time and depending on the nature of the written sources in which they appear.

I hope you appreciate the work we put into this committee and really make this committee your own. We tried to leave it as open ended as possible, I hope to see some collaboration among the members of the Alliance. As for my expectations for the committee, I neither expect nor want this to follow history in any way; however, I expect you to follow your character’s positions, and stay in character. I know the background guide and blurbs might be a bit confusing so if you have any questions at all, do not hesitate to shoot me an email.
