Black Dogs Represent Evil, Having Derived from Odin’S Black Hound in Viking Mythology’
Cave Canem by Chris Huff The Black Dog phenomenon remains an enduring connection to our ancient history. But many of the ‘facts’ we thought we knew about the phenomenon may not be true after all. Black Dog (henceforth BD) legends and folk tales are known from most counties of England, there are a few from Wales and one example that is known to the author, from the Isle of Man. There are many tales about these spectral animals. Few are alleged, in the popular sources, to bode well for the witness, and there has grown a misleading folklore around the phenomenon which is largely unsubstantiated by the scanty evidence. What exists is a collection of folk tales, spread across the length and breadth of Britain, about large spectral hounds, with black fur, large glowing eyes and perhaps an ethereal glow around them, which may explode, emit sulphurous breath, augur death and misfortune and produce poltergeist-like activity. At the outset I must take pains to point out that any recorded examples of BDs which may be a genuine haunting by a dog which happened to be black have (bar one at Ivelet in Swaledale) been screened out. The evidence presented below is not comprehensive but is believed to be a representative sample of the available recorded cases and thus may produce an insight into the phenomenon, or promote further in-depth study. Some common misconceptions or misrepresentations about the BDs include the following three statements: (1) It has frequently been claimed that the BDs are to be found in the Anglo-Saxon and Viking areas of Britain. -
For Peer Review 19 20 Indeed, the Performative and Affective Potential of the Monster Is Something That Recent Human Geography Has 21 22 Interrogated
cultural geographies On the s paces and movement of monsters: The itinerant Forcrossings Peer of Gef the Review talking mongoose Journal: cultural geographies Manuscript ID CGJ-14-0123.R2 Manuscript Type: Article Keywords: Monster, Monstrous geographies, Mobility, Supernatural, Isle of Man Geographical enquiries of the monster and the monstrous have increased in recent years. Through the accounting of a particular monster that emerged in the Isle of Man in the 1930s, I seek to contribute to these debates. The monster detailed in this paper underscores the argument that the power of the monster lies in both their proximity to familiar spatial and cultural codings, and their distance in the unfamiliarity they perform. However, I argue that the geographical accounts of the monster must focus their attention not only on their ambiguous status, but how they are Abstract: constituted through mobility and movement. It is the constant itinerancy in-between and in-the-between wherein the monster finds its disruption and potential. Furthermore, in exploring monstrous modes of mobility, I argue the monster is best understood as an itinerant crossing that is incessantly and continually emergent. I finish by reminding those interested in monstrous geographies that whilst these strange beings may act as sources of hope and potentiality, geographers must not lose sight of how the monster still has the capacity to warn and to bite. http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/culturalgeog Page 1 of 33 cultural geographies 1 1 2 3 On the spaces and movement of monsters: The Itinerant crossings of Gef the talking mongoose 4 5 6 7 8 Abstract 9 Geographical enquiries of the monster and the monstrous have increased in recent years. -
