  • Alliteration and Concrete Poetry
    Alliteration and Concrete Poetry In today’s mini-lesson, we are going to look at alliteration and concrete poetry. Don’t worry if you don’t understand what those are right now – all will become clear. The first thing I want you to do is to choose one of your favourite words. Abby, my step daughter, chose the word… blob The second thing I want you to do is put your word in an alliterative sentence. Alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sounds at the beginnings of the words. For example: Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. Alliteration is really useful as a way to stick things in our brain and has been used as a memory device in oral poetry. Beowulf, an 8th century Old English poem, uses lots of alliteration. Here’s an example: He was four times a father, this fighter prince: one by one they entered the world, Heorogar, Hrothgar, the good Halga and a daughter, I have heard, who was Onela´s queen, a balm in bed to the battle-scarred Swede. Let’s look now at what Abby did with her favourite word: blob Being a big broad blob brought Bob to breathlessly blubbering. But Bob began to become a believer beyond belief in his bodacious body, brought about by brilliant books by barely brainy bigwigs. The third thing I want you to do is to make these sentences into a concrete poem. A concrete is also called a shape poem and a visual poem. The earliest example of this type of poem comes from 3BCE! Quite simply, you write the poem in the shape of the thing you are talking about.

Byock | 144 pages | 03 Jun 2015 | Penguin Books Ltd | 9780140435931 | English | London, United Kingdom Hrólfr Kraki - Wikipedia The consensus view is that Anglo-Saxon and Scandinavian traditions describe the same people. Proponents of this theory, like J. Tolkien[11] argue that both the names Beowulf lit. Bodvar Bjarki is constantly associated with bears, his father actually being one. This match supports the hypothesis that the adventure with the dragon is also originally derived from the same story. When Haldan died of old age, Helghe and Ro divided the kingdom so that Ro ruled the land, and Helghe the sea. This resulted in a daughter named Yrse. Much later, he met Yrse, and without knowing that she was his daughter, he made her pregnant with Rolf. Eventually, Helghe found out that Yrse was his own daughter and, out of shame, went east and killed himself. Both Helghe and Ro being dead, a Swedish king, called Hakon in the Chronicon Lethrense proper, and Athisl in the Annales — corresponding to Eadgils — forced the Danes to accept a dog as king. The dog king was succeeded by Rolf Krage. Rolf Krage was a big The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki in body and soul and was so generous that no one asked him for anything twice. This Hartwar arrived in Zealand with a large army and said that he wanted to give his tribute to Rolf, but killed Rolf together with all his men. Only one survived, Wiggwho played along until he was to do homage to Hartwar.

  • Paternal Legacy in Early English Literature Dissertation Presented In
    Paternal Legacy in Early English Literature Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Erin Marie Szydloski Shaull Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Christopher A. Jones, Advisor Leslie Lockett Karen Winstead Copyright by Erin Marie Szydloski Shaull 2015 Abstract This dissertation argues that literature in Old English and early Middle English characterizes legacy-giving as a serious obligation of fatherhood and key paternal role. I contend that the father’s legacy in this cultural context can be understood to include property, heirlooms, wisdom, and kin ties. This project contributes to the emerging study of fatherhood, which has begun to examine fatherhood as a previously under-explored phenomenon that is both a cultural institution and a part of many men’s lived experiences. I examine Anglo-Saxon law-codes, Old English wisdom poetry, Beowulf, and the Middle English texts The Proverbs of Alfred and Layamon’s Brut in order to argue for the cultural importance of this fatherly role. I argue that many of the same cultural markers of Anglo-Saxon paternal legacy continue to be relevant after the Norman Conquest, but that the Norman practice of strict patrilineal primogeniture alters certain aspects of fatherhood. While Old English literature prizes a relationship between father and son that includes an ongoing giving of self on the part of the father, early Middle English literature prefers an ideal father who serves as a prototype for the son, dying just as the son reaches adulthood.

  • Beowulf Translation by Seamus Heaney So. the Spear-Danes in Days Gone by and the Kings Who Ruled Them Had Courage and Greatness
    Beowulf Translation by Seamus Heaney So. The Spear-Danes in days gone by And the kings who ruled them had courage and greatness. We have heard of those princes’ heroic campaigns. There was Shield Sheafson, scourge of many tribes, A wrecker of mead-benches, rampaging among foes. This terror of the hall-troops had come far. A foundling to start with, he would flourish later on As his powers waxed and his worth was proved. In the end each clan on the outlying coasts Beyond the whale-road had to yield to him 10 And begin to pay tribute. That was one good king. Afterwards a boy-child was born to Shield, A cub in the yard, a comfort sent By God to that nation. He knew what they had tholed, The long times and troubles they’d come through Without a leader; so the Lord of Life, The glorious Almighty, made this man renowned. Shield had fathered a famous son: Beow’s name was known through the north. And a young prince must be prudent like that, 20 Giving freely while his father lives So that afterwards in age when fighting starts Steadfast companions will stand beside him And hold the line. Behavior that’s admired Is the path to power among people everywhere. Shield was still thriving when his time came And he crossed over into the Lord’s keeping. His warrior band did what he bade them When he laid down the law among the Danes: They shouldered him out to the sea’s flood, 30 The chief they revered who had long ruled them.

  • Beowulf, Ynglingatal and the Ynglinga Saga
    Beowulf, Ynglingatal and the Ynglinga Saga : fiction or history? Rausing, Gad Fornvännen 80, 163-178 http://kulturarvsdata.se/raa/fornvannen/html/1985_163 Ingår i: samla.raa.se Beowulf, Ynglingatal and the Ynglinga Saga Fiction or History? By Gad Rausing Rausing, G. 1985. Beowulf, Ynglingatal and the Ynglinga Saga. Fiction or History? Fornvännen 80. Stockholm. Can Beowulf be used to test the value of the earliest Norse sagas as historical sources? Since at least one, and possibly two, of the persons and of the events mentioned in Beowulf can be corroborated and dated with the help of contem­ porary chronicles we must, until the opposite can be proved, accept the rest of the accounts as historical. Since several persons who figure in Beowulf are also mentioned in other, independent sagas, Ynglingatal, the Ynglinga Saga and Widsid, we must assume them to be historical and, if so, also the rest of the east of these sagas. The geographical notices in Beowulf also appear to fit reality and the conclusions appear to be confirmed by the distribution of the archaeological material. Thus, those modern historians who have denied the historical value of the sagas appear to bc wrong, since they have not taken into account all the material available. Beowulf should be taken as "history" and so should all the sagas with the same east, Ynglingatal, the Ynglinga Saga och the Sköldunga Saga. Gad Rausing, 78 Addison road, London W14 8ED, England. Our convcntional and arbitrary division of in Viking-age Seandinavia, where new fami­ the past into "prehistoric" and "historie" lies came into power, apparently in the up­ times is misleading, there being no clear bor- heavals during the "missionary period", derline between the two.

  • Granholm Genealogy
    GRANHOLM GENEALOGY NORSE ROYAL ANCESTRY (Norwegian and Finnish) INTRODUCTION The Norse or Scaninavian mythology has many deities, gods and goddesses. This part begins by listing Norwegian and Finnish ancestors, Njörd and Fjornot. Where the name in the lists are highlighted I have included a biography. There is no clear direct lineage from them, they are intermixed with the Swedish and Danish mythologies. In those separate booklets have I included the information about Odin and others near to him. Here I have shown our lineage from other mythical figures.These lineages do not start from a single person. The lists that follows converge different lineages which all lead to us. So me of the persons are referred to as Kings of Finland. As in all listings of mytological/historical persons there is a gray area where the reader may use his or her imagination in deciding where the transition between myth and history is. But a fact is that somebody was there and had some influence, for instance how a name was established serves as some kind of proof of their existence. See the quotation below: Njörðr's name appears in various place names in Scandinavia, such as Nærdhæwi (now Nalavi), Njærdhavi (now Mjärdevi), Nærdhælunda (now Närlunda), Nierdhatunum (now Närtuna) in Sweden, Njarðvík in eastern Iceland, Njarðarlög and Njarðey (now Nærøy) in Norway. Njörðr's name appears in a word for sponge; Njarðarvöttr. Additionally, in Old Icelandic translations of Classical mythology the Roman god Saturn's name is glossed as "Njörðr". King Thorri of Finland, a descendant of the first king Fornjot, is the 41st great grandfather.
