It traces the revolution brought about by these events, in custom, belief, and legend up to the fourteenth century. By that time, the Author believes, most of the fundamental features which go towards the making of modern Christmas had already come to have their centre in the 25th day of December. Five chapters of the present book—but somewhat shortened—appear simultaneously in the Proceedings of the Glasgow Archmological Society.

THE GERMANIC YEAR. The oldest descriptive remark on the mode in which the Germanics divided their year is exactly eighteen hundred years old. It is found in the Germania of Tacitus, which, in all probability, was written a.d. 98, and " runs thus : They do not divide the year into so many seasons as we do. Only winter, spring, and summer have a name and a meaning among them the name of autumn they know as little as its gifts." ^ It plainly means that the Germans of the first century of our era divided their year into three seasons, the names of which cannot, of course, have exactly corre- sponded to the Latin terms, htems, ver, and aestas, each covering a quarter of a year. This statement has been assailed from various sides, and for various reasons, even Jacob Grimm expressing his belief that it was based on some misconception by Tacitus.^ He understood Tacitus to refer solely to the meaning of the words, and remarked that the Romans did not use ^ " Germania, chap, xxvi., Unde annum quoque ipsum non in totidem digerunt species : hiems et ver et aestas intellectum et vocabula habent ; autumni perinde nomen et bona ignorantur." ^Deutsche Mythologie, p. 717. A 3 YULE AND CHRISTMAS the name of atitumnus for the harvest of grain, but for the gathering of fruit, vintage, and after-math, things which were at that time unknown to the Germans. But such a view is scarcely tenable. For Tacitus speaks decidedly of the seasons as such, and in the case of autumnus, at the non- existence of which the Romans might wonder, he makes an explanatory and rather melancholy observation. In course of time, on a closer study of the questions connected with the Germanic partition of the year, extensive material has been discovered which undoubtedly goes to support Tacitus. Grimm himself lived to collect part of it, and to admit that he had been wrong.^ Another scholar has told us that he knows better than Tacitus, and that the ancient Germans had the word herbst, with the meaning " time of fruits." But that word seems to have meant originally, just like English harvest, the act of reaping the ripe grain and fruits, and not the time of their ripeness, though it was later used to denote the period of bringing in the harvest. Considerations of that kind can as little influence our judgment V on Tacitus' report as can the fact that we are unable to say exactly which German word he meant to correspond with Latin ver, spring ; for spring, lent (German Lenz), and Friihling are, as is generally admitted, of later growth. The tri-partition of the Germanic year is an unshakable fact. It has been preserved for a very long time on legal ground. The three seasons answer to the three not-ordered law courts, i.e., the three annual legal meetings which were fixed by tradition and not called by special royal ordinance. This fact is even admitted by Professor Weinhold of Berlin in his book on the German division of the year, who, on the whole, takes the view that the Germanics, just like the Romans, quartered their year according to solstices and equinoxes.^ Professor Weinhold, however, there concedes so much as to acknowledge that those law courts were originally held at the beginning of winter, in spring, and about midsummer : whilst later the beginning of winter, midwinter, spring; midwinter, Easter, mid- ^ Geschichte der deutschen Sprache, Leipzig, 1848, Vol. L, p. 74. ^ Uber die deutsche Jahrteilung, Kiel, 1862, p. 8. THE GERMANIC YEAR 3 summer ; and February, May, autumn, took the place of those terms- Professor Weinhold gives ^ proofs for the several cases. Others agree with him in this proposition. So the greatest German authority on chronology, ^ *' Grotefend, says : The tri-partition of the year has been preserved almost exclusively in juridical relations, and there finds its principal appli- cation in the so-called dreidinge, echteitdinge, echtendage, or eiting, the not-ordered law court of the country, which was held at three terms in the year. The terms vary, though with a general prevalence of midwinter (or beginning of winter), Easter, and midsummer (also the Twelve-nights, Easter, and Pentecost, or St. John's day), the basis of the tri-partition being a division of the year into winter, spring, and summer." The capitulary of Louis the Pious, of 817, ordains "/« anno tria solummodo generalia plactda"^ which, of course, can only be taken as a codification of existing law, and not as a creation of a new jurisdiction. This usage lived on till at least the fifteenth century.^ The fact of the early existence of three German annual law courts is so generally admitted that it is an exception for any authority to disagree. And even those who disagree have to account for a number of important indisputable facts. So Pfannenschmid,^ believing that there were four Germanic law assemblies annually, finds it extremely strange that far more frequently only three such assemblies are enumerated, and that the examples of four assemblies are both rarer and later than those of three. In Anglo-Saxon times the tri-partition of the year was preserved in the mode of paying the wages of female servants, who received a sheep for the feast at the beginning of winter, a measure of beans for the mid- ' lent dinner (Sunday Jnvocavit), and whey on siimera ' (corresponding ^ C/l>er die deutsche Jahrteilung, Kiel, 1862, pp. 18, 19. ^ Zeitrechnung des deutschen Mittelalters, 1891, p. 90, Jahreszeitefi. ^ Sohm, Fr'dnkische Keichs- und Gerichtsverfassung, p. 398.

The payment of shepherds' wages is regulated not so much by an old tri-partition of the year as the by development of sheep during the year [Ibid., I., 438, 9 : " Pastoris ovium rectum est, ut habeat dingiam xii. noctium in Natali Domini, et i. agnum de juventute hornotina, et l. belflis, id est, timpani vellus, et lac gregis sui, Vli.

  • Grundtvig Learning Partnerships Compendium
    GRUNDTVIG LEARNING PARTNERSHIPS COMPENDIUM 2009 Version August 2010 INTRODUCTION The European Union's Lifelong Learning Programme (LLP) supports education and training cooperation between more than 30 countries in Europe. Part of this programme, known as Grundtvig, specifically supports general and non-vocational adult learning through grants provided to adult education staff, adult learners and European projects involving organisations active in this field. Grundtvig aims to open up new ways for adults of all ages to improve their knowledge and skills, to develop their individual aptitudes and potential, and to contribute actively to the communities in which they live. The Grundtvig Learning Partnerships bring together relevant organisations from a minimum of three European countries, with the aim of developing joint projects for exchange of experience and methods on topics of common interest to the partner organisations. A wide range of topics are covered by the partnerships, involving learners and staff in transnational cooperation activities during the two years of the project. One of the participating organisations acts as coordinator. This Compendium presents the 291 Grundtvig Learning Partnerships, involving some 1500 organisations, selected in 2009, whose activities will be carried out in the period 2009-2011. They are grouped in this document according to the country of their coordinating organisation. The information presented in the Compendium, such as project data, descriptions of the projects, topics addressed by the partnership, name and address of accepted partner organisations, have been provided by the partnerships at application stage. We hope that the reader will find this Compendium an interesting source of information and will feel inspired to develop new partnerships.

  • Anglo-Saxon Literature
    ANGLO-SAXON LITERATURE BY JOHN EARLE, M.A. PREFACE. The bulk of this little book has been a year or more in type; and, in the mean time, some important publications have appeared which it was too late for me to profit by. Among such I count the “Corpus Poeticum Boreale” by Dr. Gudbrand Vigfusson and Mr. York Powell; the “Epinal Gloss” and Alfred‟s “Orosius” by Mr. Sweet, for the Early English Text Society; an American edition of the “Beowulf” by Professors Harrison and Sharp; Ælfric‟s translation of “Alcuin upon Genesis,” by Mr. MacLean. To these I must add an article in the “Anglia” on the first and last of the Riddles in the Exeter Book, by Dr. Moritz Trautmann. Another recent book is the translation of Mr. Bernhard Ten Brink‟s work on “Early English Literature,” which comprises a description of thevi Anglo-Saxon period. This book is not new to me, except for the English dress that Mr. Kennedy has given to it. The German original has been often in my hand, and although I am not aware of any particular debt, such as it would have been a duty and a pleasure to acknowledge on the spot, yet I have a sentiment that Mr. Ten Brink‟s sympathising and judicious treatment of our earliest literature has been not only agreeable to read, but also profitable for my work. CHAPTER I. A PRELIMINARY VIEW. ANGLO-SAXON literature is the oldest of the vernacular literatures of modern Europe; and it is a consequence of this that its relations with Latin literature have been the closest.

  • The Goddess Issue
    The Goddess Issue Welcome to issue Number 5 of Skuld, we have various Goddesses featured and they are each one a4 page, we were thinking of doing them 3 or 4 pages long but we know people nowadays have a short attention span, so we focused on the core of each woman featured, that way you can decide for yourself if you wish to delve deeper into each one. Doing this issue was nothing but pure joy, as I researched each female goddess I found myself finding some sort of connection with her, that is the most wonderful aspect of the female divine we can connect with so many elements of femininity in each one featured, be it their wisdom, knowledge, honour, strength and so forth. A big thank you to Strega for her piece on Venus xo Each photo used in this issue is also mine, I spend an hour or more every single day outside taking photos’ of the gifts in abundance from mother nature, I highly recommend daily interactions with the outdoors, it grounds me, it heals me, it makes me feel at one so I can for that brief moment block out the real madness that is being shoved down our throats daily! We may do a few more Skuld –The Goddess issues, let’s face it we have barely skimmed the top.
