  • Memory, Genealogy and Power in Íslendingabók
    MEMORY, GENEALOGY AND POWER IN ÍSLENDINGABÓK Costel COROBAN „Ovidius” University of Constanța [email protected] Abstract: The aim of this study is to reveal the manner in which memory and genealogy are employed in Íslendingabók with the purpose of legitimizing the power and promoting the prestige of chieftains (goði), bishops and kings. This source is probably one of the best known literary production of Medieval Iceland and one of the earliest vernacular prose works (also known as Saga of the Icelanders or Libellus Islandorum). It was written in Old Norse by Ari fróði Þorgilsson (1067–1148) during the early 12th century (circa 1122-1133), and is regarded by most scholars as the first history of Iceland and the foundation of Icelandic literature. The manuscripts are preserved at the Árni Magnússon Institute for Icelandic Studies in Reykjavik in two documents (AM 113 a fol and AM 113 b fol) copied in the 17th century by priest Jón Erlendsson at the indications of Bishop Brynjólfur Sveinsson (14th September 1605 – 5th August 1675) of Skálholt from an original copy from the 12th century that had been lost afterwards. Keywords: Íslendingabók, Ari Þorgilsson, memory, genealogy, power, legitimation, sagas. Ari Þorgilsson, the celebrated author1 of Íslendingabók2 was praised by Snorri Sturluson as “truly learned about past events both here and abroad…eager to learn and having a good memory” as well as having a “perceptive intellect” 3. Despite such examples of praising, more modern commentators have found Ari’s Íslendingabók lacking in details and 1 J.

  • On Freyr—The 'Lord' Or 'The Fertile One'? Some Comments on the Discussion of Etymology from the Historian of Religions
    On Freyr—the ‘Lord’ or ‘the fertile one’? Some comments on the discussion of etymology from the historian of religions’ point of view1 Olof SUNDQVIST Introduction Ever since the beginning of modern research in the 19th century, histo- rians of religions have used gods’ names, and the etymologies that can be associated with them, as a method to determine and distinguish the various mythical beings, their nature and functions. Also the Old Norse deities have been interpreted by means of their names. In the present paper focus will be put on the ancient Scandinavian deity Freyr. His name has been a matter of debate in recent research, especially among philologists and specialists on names (onomasticians). Their arguments have, however, not always been based on linguistic arguments exclu- sively, but also on knowledge brought from the history of religions. Since some of the theories on Freyr in the history of religions are dis- puted, it is important that such aspects are brought to light also for the researchers in onomastics. A paradox may be discerned in research today. A new etymology of the god’s name has been suggested. This etymology has support from previous interpretations of the god Freyr made by historians of religions working in the mid 20th century. While a new and more nuanced image of Freyr, produced by historians of religions around 1995-2015, can find support from the old etymology. Freyr and the etymology of his name There has almost been consensus that Freyr’s name should be con- ceived as a Proto-Nordic *Fraujaz (derived from the Indo-European 1 During the preparation of this article some individuals have given me important advices, answered questions and discussed some problems related to linguistic aspects.

  • Hvorledes Norge Ble Bosatt
    Hvorledes Norge ble bosatt 1. Om Fornjot og hans ættmenn. Nå skal det fortelles hvorledes Norge først ble bosatt og hvilke kongsætter som oppstod der og i andre land, og hvorfor de het Skjoldunger, Budlunger, Bragninger, Ødlinger, Vølsunger eller Niflunger som kongsættene er kommet fra. Fornjot het en mann og han hadde tre sønner. Den første het Hler, den andre Logi og den tredje Kåri. Sistnevnte rådde for vinden, Logi for ilden og Hler for sjøen. Kåri var far til Jøkul, far til kong Snæ og barna hans var Thorri, Fønn, Drifa og Mjøll. Thorri var en navngjeten konge som rådde over Gotland, Kvenland og Finland. Til ham blotet kvenene for å få snø og godt skiføre. Dette var deres beste tid. Blotet skulle være midt på vinteren, og derfor kalles det siden Thorremåned. Kong Thorri hadde tre barn; sønnene hans het Nor og Gor, og datteren Goi. Goi ble borte og Thorri blotet da en måned senere enn han pleide å blote, og siden kalte de denne måneden de da hadde framfor seg for Goi. Nor og Gor lette etter søsteren sin. Nor hadde store slag vestenfor Kjølen og de kongene som het Vee og Vei, Hunding og Heming ble felt av ham. Nor la så under seg alt land helt til havet. Brødrene møttes i den fjorden som nå heter Norafjord. Derfra for Nor opp på Kjølen og kom der som det heter Ulfamoar, deretter dro han gjennom Østerdalen og siden til Vermaland, til den innsjøen som heter Vænir, og så til havet. Hele dette landet la Nor under seg, alt vestenfor denne grensa.

  • Und Anchises Im Kontext Der Karolingergenealogien Und Der Fränkischen Geschichtsschreibung Gerhard Lubich
    Die Namen Ansegis(el), Anschis(us) und Anchises im Kontext der Karolingergenealogien und der fränkischen Geschichtsschreibung Gerhard Lubich Die wohl älteste erhaltene Genealogie der Karolinger trägt den Titel Commemo- ratio genealogiae domni Karoli gloriosissimi imperatoris.1 Von einem Beginn, der auf römische Wurzeln hinzuweisen scheint, bis zum Endpunkt Karl dem Großen werden darin acht aufeinanderfolgende Generationen aufgeführt. In der agnatischen Linie findet sich in der vierten Generation der Name Anschisus – ein durchaus ungewöhnlicher Name, der sich weder im römischen Namen­ bestand findet noch unmittelbar aus germanischen Wurzel ableitbar ist. Auch im Mittelalter lässt er sich nicht weiter eigenständig nachweisen, sondern taucht beinahe ausschließlich in Texten auf, die in der Regel sogar auf Basis, zumin­ dest aber in Zusammenhang mit der Commemoratio Karoli entstanden sein dürften; dementsprechend beziehen sie sich auch auf den Vorfahren Karls. Lediglich in zwei Verbrüderungsbüchern finden sich – unter zehntausenden Namen – insgesamt vier Einträge vermerkt, die in der Form Anschis oder Ansgis(us) in Verbindung mit dem Namen Anschisus zu bringen wären, jeweils in Gruppeneinträgen von Mönchen, bei denen man weder einen genealo­ gischen noch einen deutlichen regionalen Zusammenhang mit der Herrscher­ dynastie herstellen könnte.2 Auch die Karolinger selbst griffen niemals mehr auf den Namen dieses Vorfahren zurück, auch nicht in der germanischen Form Ansegis(el), die deutlich häufiger belegt ist.3 Damit scheint der Name 1 Die Ausgabe der Commemoratio, ed. Waitz (1881: 245f.) ersetzt die in vielen Punkten verbesserungswürdige Ausgabe von Pertz (1829: 308f.). 2 Ein Anschisus ist verzeichnet im Liber memorialis von Remiremont, f. 59 r, ed. Hlawitschka (1970: 132, Z. 2). In den Confraternitates Augienses findet sich pag.
