  • The Prose Edda
    THE PROSE EDDA SNORRI STURLUSON (1179–1241) was born in western Iceland, the son of an upstart Icelandic chieftain. In the early thirteenth century, Snorri rose to become Iceland’s richest and, for a time, its most powerful leader. Twice he was elected law-speaker at the Althing, Iceland’s national assembly, and twice he went abroad to visit Norwegian royalty. An ambitious and sometimes ruthless leader, Snorri was also a man of learning, with deep interests in the myth, poetry and history of the Viking Age. He has long been assumed to be the author of some of medieval Iceland’s greatest works, including the Prose Edda and Heimskringla, the latter a saga history of the kings of Norway.

  • GIANTS and GIANTESSES a Study in Norse Mythology and Belief by Lotte Motz - Hunter College, N.Y
    GIANTS AND GIANTESSES A study in Norse mythology and belief by Lotte Motz - Hunter College, N.Y. The family of giants plays apart of great importance in North­ Germanic mythology, as this is presented in the 'Eddas'. The phy­ sical environment as weIl as the race of gods and men owe their existence ultimately to the giants, for the world was shaped from a giant's body and the gods, who in turn created men, had de­ scended from the mighty creatures. The energy and efforts of the ruling gods center on their battles with trolls and giants; yet even so the world will ultimately perish through the giants' kindling of a deadly blaze. In the narratives which are concerned with human heroes trolls and giants enter, shape, and direct, more than other superhuman forces, the life of the protagonist. The mountains, rivers, or valleys of Iceland and Scandinavia are often designated with a giant's name, and royal houses, famous heroes, as weIl as leading families among the Icelandic settlers trace their origin to a giant or a giantess. The significance of the race of giants further is affirmed by the recor­ ding and the presence of several hundred giant-names in the Ice­ landic texts. It is not surprising that students of Germanic mythology and religion have probed the nature of the superhuman family. Thus giants were considered to be the representatives of untamed na­ ture1, the forces of sterility and death, the destructive powers of 1.

  • The Rök Runestone and the End of the World. Futhark 9–10
    The Rök Runestone and the End of the World Per Holmberg (University of Gothenburg), Bo Gräslund (Uppsala University), Olof Sundqvist (Stockholm University), and Henrik Williams (Uppsala University) Abstract The Rök runestone from central middle Sweden, dated to around 800 CE, is famous, among other things, for a supposed reference to the emperor Theodo­ ric the Great. This study proposes instead that the inscription deals with an anxiety triggered by a son’s death and the fear of a new climate crisis similar to the catastrophic one after 536 CE. Combining perspectives and findings from semiotics, philology, archaeology, and history of religion, the study presents a completely new interpretation which follows a unified theme, showing how the monument can be understood in the socio­cultural and religious context of early Viking Age Scandinavia. The inscription consists, according to the pro­ posed interpretation, of nine enigmatic questions. Five of the questions con­ cern the sun, and four of them, it is argued, ask about issues related to the god Odin. A central finding is that there are relevant parallels to the inscription in early Scandinavian poetry, especially in the Eddic poem Vafþrúðnismál. Keywords: Rök, runestones, Viking Age, riddles, Eddic poetry, skaldic poetry, climate crisis he Rök runestone (Ög 136) is the most famous runic monument of Tthe Viking Age. It was erected c. 800 CE in a prosperous agricultural district in today’s central middle Sweden by Varinn as a memorial to his son Vāmōðʀ. Except for one damaged line, its more than 700 runes and other characters are still clearly legible, and cover all five visible sides of a five­ton granite slab, over two and a half meters high above the ground.

    16. Gerión 24-1 21/6/06 10:17 Página 287 Communitary and Individualistic Gods in German and Roman Religion Adolfo ZAVARONI Reggio Emilia, Italy RESUMEN Según dos episodios contados por Saxo Grammaticus, Othinus fué reemplazado temporalmente por Mythothyn y, en una circunstancia diferente, por Ollerus. El análisis textual enseña que Mythothyn aspiró a la posesión y a la gloria personal, prohibiendo las ofertas dedicadas en común a los dioses. Ollerus-Ullr “Gloria, Esplendor” evidencia una semejante inclinación en el nombre mismo. Puesto que Iovis hijo de Fortuna fué venerado por los patricios romanos, mientras la tríada Ceres-Liber-Libe- ra, el antiguo Mercurio y Saturno fueron adorados por los plebeyos como divinidades comunitarias, podemos deducir que los dioses de la luz diurna fueron creídos partidarios de poder individual desde muchos siglos. Palabras clave: epulum Iovis, Fortuna, Gullveig, Iovis, Latinus, Mercurius, Mithothyn, Ollerus-Ullr, Odin-Othinus-ÓDinn, Summanus, Vulcanus. ABSTRACT According to two episodes told by Saxo Grammaticus, Othinus was temporarily replaced by Mythothyn and, in a different circumstance, by Ollerus. Analysis shows that the former aspired to per- sonal ownership and glorification, prohibiting votes dedicated to all gods, while the latter shows such an inclination in the name itself (Ullr “Glory”). Analogously Iovis son of Fortuna was the god worshipped by the Roman patricians, while the Ceres- Liber-Libera triad, the early Mercury and Saturn were worshipped by the plebeians as communitary divinities. We may infer that the gods of daily light had been considered promoters of individual power since many centuries. Key Words: epulum Iovis, Fortuna, Gullveig, Iovis, Latinus, Mercurius, Mithothyn, Ollerus-Ullr, Odin-Othinus-ÓDinn, Summanus, Vulcanus.

  • A Portion of an Old Icelandic Mythological Poem and a New English Translation Ellis B
    Volume 1 • Issue 1 z.umn.edu/MURAJ A Little Bit of Lokrur: A Portion of an Old Icelandic Mythological Poem and a New English Translation Ellis B. Wylie Abstract: The rímur known as Lokrur is preserved in a single manuscript, AM 604G 4to, and has been transcribed by such prominent scholars as Jón Þorklesson, Finnur Jónsson, and Sverrir Tómasson. Lokrur follows the tale of Þór and Útgarðaloki, as found in Snorra Edda, and weaves for us a more intricate tapestry of images, details, and events than we erstwhile get from Snorri. And while the popularity of the Eddas endures, within academia and without, variations on these popular tales remain fairly inaccessible to the general public. In this exercise I have rendered the first two sections of the poem in English, and provided analyses and references which expand upon the kennings and heiti found therein, in an effort to make Lokrur as accessible to an audience outside of academia as its eddaic counterpart. I have worked to provide a translation of scholarly quality, and a fairly normalized transcription, that can both contribute to the modern study of Icelandic poetry and invite the eye of any interested party outside of academia. “All were afraid of Ygg’s son, strength he often employed; giants fled silently from the land once he took Mjöllnir in his hand.” - rímur 1, verse 7 The tradition of epic poetry in Iceland is quite a long one. The middle ages saw the rise of eddaic poetry, and its fall to the more elaborate courtly meter of the skalds.

  • Cosmology As an Empirical and Analytical Concept
    The Part or the Whole: Cosmology as an Empirical and Analytical Concept CATHARINA RAUDVERE University of Copenhagen Abstract In the study of Old Norse religion, mythology and cosmology are two core concepts frequently used in inter-disciplinary discussions as to the content, changes and spread of the pre-Christian religion in Scandinavia. The article discusses the concept of cosmology in rela- tion to religion and world-view, with examples from picture-stones and from mythological and heroic texts. Cosmology is not a criterion of religion, any more than the occurrence of an explicitly formulated cosmology necessarily implies that the aim in presenting a world-view is exclusively religious. We may be justified in looking closely at a body of material that is to be studied and asking ourselves where its systematicity is formulated: in the researcher’s argumentation, in a compiler like Snorri, or in the emic tradition? And not least, which individual narratives in the local tradition are singled out as cosmo- logical? Hybrid forms are rarely identified by studying cosmologies as doctrinal systems. The representation of world-views can take other forms than systematised accounts, but then they are less easily accessible to research. In a discussion of the concept of cosmology, there may be good reason to ask what motifs in text and image recurring over a long time imply for different interpretations and what their ambivalence means for their analysis today. Then as now, there is a wide range of possibilities when it comes to the interpretation of individual expressions. The explanatory value of concepts such as cosmology, or for that matter mythology, is sometimes obscure, since the terms are used to capture a particular type of empirical material rather than to answer an analytical question.

  • Embercombe Course, Waking Dragons
    WAKING DRAGONS - Summary Embercombe College - 2020 ©Andreas Kornevall I have written here below the rune-row in relations to the creation myth - as the runes have “Ur-Log” (Ur=Origin Log = Law) within their symbolism; such as the killing of Ymir, the harnessing of the giants powers to create and the debt to the Giants - the debt from the wild, the earth. There is also the law of reconciliation between opposing forces - the earth spirits and the sky Gods reconcile through the spit and tears to create wisdom in the seven worlds. Although this has not happened yet in our world. These laws (urlogs) are important to note as we go on with the material. Please add to these notes with your own thoughts, especially if you have your own regular practice, be it meditation or psychology. Some of the ideas presented should be questioned and filled with your own insights. As a word of advice try and learn the name of the runes (don’t worry about pronunciation, do the best you can) and their symbol from the creation story below. Do the best you can, if you can learn one or two per day that is enough pace. The first letter of the rune is always its linguistic value; DAGAZ is D, ASS is A, etc. Practice spelling your name with the runes in this way. Central to this knowledge, and especially esoteric knowledge, is the question: “what do you want and how much are you prepared to pay?” Nothing of value comes without a price, and wisdom, I am afraid (and according to all myths across the world) asks for a fair amount.
