III Are we Free from stubborn will, From low hate and malice small, From opinion's tyrant thrall ? Are none of us our own slaves still ? IV Are we Free to speak our thought, To be happy, and be poor, Free to enter Heaven's door To live and labor as we ougft? V Are we then made free at last From the Fear of what men say, Free to reverence Today, Free From the slavery of the Past?

There are many people who claim to be experts on vampire lore and legend who will say that they know all about Vlad Tepes and Count Dracula or that they can name several different types of vampiric species. I can do that, too, but that is not how I came to be a known vam- pirologist. Knowing the “who, what and where” is one thing, but knowing and more impor- tantly understanding the “why” is another.

    Edited by d Ülo Valk and Daniel Sävborg Daniel and Valk d Ülo by Edited This collection of articles addresses the narrative construction of places, landscapes and their supernatural dimensions, the relationship between tradition communities and their environments, and the spatial conditions for encounters with the supernatural as they are manifested in European folklore and in early literary sources, such as Places Supernatural the Old Norse sagas. Storied and Supernatural Storied and and Storied Articles in the book discuss places cursed and sacred, churches, graveyards, haunted houses, cemeteries, grave mounds, hill forts, and other tradition dominants in the micro-geography of the Nordic, Places Baltic and Baltic-Finnic peoples. It emerges that places accumulate Studies in Spatial and Social Dimensions of Folklore and Sagas meanings as they are layered by stories and memories about personal experiences.

Onder het bewerken van de eerste helft mijner grammatische studie betreffende de oud-Nederfrankische psalmen had ik tot mijn leedwezen geen gelegenheid om de handschriften zelve te vergelijken en moest ik mij dus tevreden stellen met de bekende uitgave van Heyne. Toen bij de bewerking der laatste helft de vormen zelve door mij waren overgenomen, zooals ik ze in die editie had aangetroffen, stelde ik de collatie der op de Leidsche bibliotheek berustende glossen tot later uit, dewijl toch de weinige afwijkingen van Haupt's tekst, die ik zou kunnen constateeren, op de slotsom van mijn onderzoek weinig of geen invloed zouden kunnen hebben. Door de heuschheid van den Heer bibliothecaris alhier in staat gesteld de glossen zelve met Haupt's uitgave te vergelijken, bie ik thans den belangstellenden lezer het resultaat mijner collatie aan. Gelijk nader zal blijken, heeft Haupt niet overal met de vereischte nauwkeurigheid gelezen: de veranderingen, die hij zich in de spelling van 't Latijn heeft veroorloofd, billijk ik in allen deele; maar onverklaarbaar is het mij, waarom hij op eenige plaatsen de volgorde der glossen eigendunkelijk heeft veranderd en op andere, in plaats van de lezing van den codex trouw weer te geven, onzin heeft geleverd, die niet altijd door eene conjectuur is te verbeteren. Ook op Heyne's editie heb ik eene aanmerking, die wel niet zeer gewichtig is De taal- en letterbode.

  • Romanian Sky's Constellations
    0 “Zodiac” - A collection of European legends, stories and myths related to astronomy- “Reach The Sky” 2015-2017 1 “Zodiac” - A collection of European legends, stories and myths related to astronomy- “Reach The Sky” 2015-2017 ROMANIA The rich mythology and folklore of Romania is poorly-known beyond the borders of that country, largely because of cultural isolation for much of this century and before. The mythology is in general a mixture of Christian and earlier Pagan themes, and in parts seems to preserve very ancient aspects from earlier cultures that other European mythologies have either forgotten, or perhaps never had. For instance, the Romanian constellations are similar to those found in the West, but are a mixture of adapted Christian and agricultural symbols, with a few retaining historical links to the Roman conquest of Romania (then called Dacia). 2 “Zodiac” - A collection of European legends, stories and myths related to astronomy- “Reach The Sky” 2015-2017 The Making of the World By Marcel Olinescu Marcel Olinescu (September 17, 1896–February 15, 1992) was a Romanian engraver. In 1926, Olinescu went to Botoșani to teach at “A. T. Laurian” High School. The following year, he settled at Arad, where he taught drawing at the boys' commercial high school. From 1933 to 1937, he edited the local “Știrea” (The News) newspaper, while in 1931, he co-founded an artistic society in Arad. Together with other members he edited the literary and cultural magazine “Hotarul” (The Border). His book "Romanian Mythology" is one of the well know piece of his writing masterpieces.
