  • How Uniform Was the Old Norse Religion?
    II. Old Norse Myth and Society HOW UNIFORM WAS THE OLD NORSE RELIGION? Stefan Brink ne often gets the impression from handbooks on Old Norse culture and religion that the pagan religion that was supposed to have been in Oexistence all over pre-Christian Scandinavia and Iceland was rather homogeneous. Due to the lack of written sources, it becomes difficult to say whether the ‘religion’ — or rather mythology, eschatology, and cult practice, which medieval sources refer to as forn siðr (‘ancient custom’) — changed over time. For obvious reasons, it is very difficult to identify a ‘pure’ Old Norse religion, uncorroded by Christianity since Scandinavia did not exist in a cultural vacuum.1 What we read in the handbooks is based almost entirely on Snorri Sturluson’s representation and interpretation in his Edda of the pre-Christian religion of Iceland, together with the ambiguous mythical and eschatological world we find represented in the Poetic Edda and in the filtered form Saxo Grammaticus presents in his Gesta Danorum. This stance is more or less presented without reflection in early scholarship, but the bias of the foundation is more readily acknowledged in more recent works.2 In the textual sources we find a considerable pantheon of gods and goddesses — Þórr, Óðinn, Freyr, Baldr, Loki, Njo3rðr, Týr, Heimdallr, Ullr, Bragi, Freyja, Frigg, Gefjon, Iðunn, et cetera — and euhemerized stories of how the gods acted and were characterized as individuals and as a collective. Since the sources are Old Icelandic (Saxo’s work appears to have been built on the same sources) one might assume that this religious world was purely Old 1 See the discussion in Gro Steinsland, Norrøn religion: Myter, riter, samfunn (Oslo: Pax, 2005).

  • 1 Jupiter the Antiquarian : the Name of Iulus (Virgil, Aeneid 1.267–8)
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-11627-6 - Latin Literature and its Transmission: Papers in Honour of Michael Reeve Edited by Richard Hunter and S. P. Oakley Excerpt More information 1 JUPITER THE ANTIQUARIAN : THE NAME OF IULUS (VIRGIL, AENEID 1.267–8) ALESSANDRO BARCHIESI In his prophecy to Venus , Jupiter declares: at puer Ascanius, cui nunc cognomen Iulo additur – Ilus erat, dum res stetit Ilia regno – … But the boy Ascanius, to whom now the extra name ‘Iulus’ is given (he was called ‘Ilus’ while the Ilian state stood fi rm with its kingdom) (Virg. Aen . 1.267–8) This is a very intense moment in the poem and in its recon- struction of the Roman past. The name ‘Iulus’ provides the transition – brilliantly analysed in terms of prosody and politics by Cowan 2009 – between Trojan Ilus and Roman Iulius. The survival and metonomasia of Ilus are also cru- cial to the diffi cult negotiation between Augustan dynastic ideology and the Latin tradition of Silvius and the kings of Alba Longa. 1 The sentence is usually considered as a statement of fact – at this point in the story Iulus is acquiring his future name, and it appears to be obvious that Jupiter’s prophecy is complemen- tary to the narrator’s voice. Taken together, the two voices con- spire to give nunc a particular emphasis: a loaded moment in the plot, in the story itself, and in the tradition of the Aeneas legend, a legend so fertile in dynastic manipulations. Yet, if we consider whose voice it is, this will be seen to be more than I thank Cesare Letta and T.

Not since the time of the Norse (proto-Germanic) People crossing together with the Jewish population of Rome in Britain has a union resulted in such a perfect th st admixture, UNTIL the emergence of North America (17 -21 centuries). The migration of Israel and Rome into N.W. Europe is a well-documented fact of History. Together, we have structured a world of commerce over centuries. Once again, we are One People, stronger than ever, descended of Royal Race - The American Line. ~~~~ The Greatest Awakening in History will be experienced over the coming Quarter Century. After which time, a fixed and developed geo-politics will have a lasting affect for centuries to come… This Work is part of the larger discussion that currently rages within the Interdisciplinary Sciences and the drivers that influence the very edifice of Religion and Politics… The knowledge of our illustrious heritage is stirring a sudden and rapid awakening.

  • Classical Mythology in the Victorian Popular Theatre Edith Hall
    Pre-print of Hall, E. in International Journal of the Classical Tradition, (1998). Classical Mythology in the Victorian Popular Theatre Edith Hall Introduction: Classics and Class Several important books published over the last few decades have illuminated the diversity of ways in which educated nineteenth-century Britons used ancient Greece and Rome in their art, architecture, philosophy, political theory, poetry, and fiction. The picture has been augmented by Christopher Stray’s study of the history of classical education in Britain, in which he systematically demonstrates that however diverse the elite’s responses to the Greeks and Romans during this period, knowledge of the classical languages served to create and maintain class divisions and effectively to exclude women and working-class men from access to the professions and the upper levels of the civil service. This opens up the question of the extent to which people with little or no education in the classical languages knew about the cultures of ancient Greece and Rome. One of the most important aspects of the burlesques of Greek drama to which the argument turned towards the end of the previous chapter is their evidential value in terms of the access to classical culture available in the mid-nineteenth century to working- and lower- middle-class people, of both sexes, who had little or no formal training in Latin or Greek. For the burlesque theatre offered an exciting medium through which Londoners—and the large proportion of the audiences at London theatres who travelled in from the provinces—could appreciate classical material. Burlesque was a distinctive theatrical genre which provided entertaining semi-musical travesties of well-known texts and stories, from Greek tragedy and Ovid to Shakespeare and the Arabian Nights, between approximately the 1830s and the 1870s.

  • Building Runic Networks
    Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Viking and Medieval Norse Studies Building Runic Networks A Digital Investigation of Dialects in the East Norse Runic Corpus Ritgerð til MA-prófs í Viking and Medieval Norse Studies Benjamin Holt Kt.: 220589-4719 Leiðbeinendur: Haraldur Bernharðsson Michael Lerche Nielsen September 2017 ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to create a complex and three-dimensional overview of East Norse dialects in the age of runic inscription (approximately 700 AD through 1200 AD). It does so through the use of two innovations – namely, variable co-occurrence and network analysis – that allow for greater depth and complexity than previous studies offer. Prior scholarship has focused primarily on only one set of linguistic variables. By examining and analyzing the occurrences of two sets of variables simultaneously, this thesis exponentially increases the complexity – and thus credibility – of the resultant dialectal analysis. Creating networks of runic inscriptions based on these co-occurrences makes it possible to free dialectal data from abstract tables and visualize linguistic connections and patterns in a previously unexplored manner. By so doing, this thesis presents new and innovative insight into the dialects of Runic Swedish, Runic Danish, and Runic Gutnish and paves the way for future digital research into the same. ÚTDRÁTTUR Markmið þessarar ritgerðar er að skapa margbrotið þrívíddaryfirlit yfir austnorrænar mállýskur í rúnaáletrunum (u.þ.b. 700–1200).

CLARKE, M.A. Cambridge : SEEN BY at the University F ress 1 PRESERVATION 191 SERVICES \\ PR SI PRINTED BY JOHN CLAY, M.A. AT THE UNTVEKSITY PRESS PREFACE following chapters are the outcome of two periods THEof stud}7 undertaken during the tenure of research scholarships awarded by Girton College, and form an attempt to discover the amount of historical truth under lying the allusions to persons and events in the Old English heroic poems. The essay deals with an aspect of these poems, which I has not, so far as know, been treated systematically by- anyone who has previously written on the subject. Thus, in the absence of any model, I have had to work on independent lines, especially as regards the grouping and arrangement of different traditions, and the method of discussion followed in the several chapters. The actual arrangement has been adopted for convenience of discus sion, according to the nationality of the persons concerned, except in cases where a particular section forms a complete epic narrative with a personal (as opposed to a national) interest of its own: in these cases the tradition has been discussed under the heading of the poem in which it is contained, or that of the character round whom the narrative centres.
