A quotation from Thomas Carlyle

In that strange island Iceland, — burst up, the geologists say, by fire from the bottom of the sea; a wild land of barrenness and lava; swallowed many months of every year in black tempests, yet with a wild gleaming beauty in summertime; towering up there, stern and grim, in the North Ocean with its snow jokuls, roaring geysers, sulphur-pools and horrid volcanic chasms, like the waste chaotic battle-field of Frost and Fire; — where of all places we least looked for Literature or written memorials, the record of these things was written down.

New chapter of "Loki and the Ranger - Truth" is now available for your reading pleasure.

Kamigami no Asobi Episode 7: Balder explains why he cannot be hurt, see Prose Edda. Thor is surprisingly calm. This does not correspond with the medieval sources. We also see a somewhat mischievous Loki, who deliberately misbehaves, but it also appears that he is simply jealous or wants to avoid upcoming difficulties.

Kamigano no Asobi, episode 3: the gods discuss their food, and Loki doesn't really care. Yet he is a glutton. In Gylfagynning of the Prose Edda, Loki claims he can eat faster than anyone else. He competes against Logi, but loses. Logi represents fire and even consumes the trough that held the food. No wonder Loki loses. Maybe Loki doesn't care what he gets to eat in the series. The important thing is food. #anime #神々の戯 #kamigaminoasobi #norsemythology #loki #edda #proseedda

Still stuck on Kamigami no Asobi: Balder is very clumsy and constantly falls over. However, nothing happens to him and even the forces of nature don't want to hurt him. This is clearly a reference to the Poetic Edda. Frigg makes all things swear not to harm Balder, except for a mistletoe branch, which Loki later uses to kill Balder. I'm curious to see if this will be picked up later in the series. #anime #神々の戯 #kamigaminoasobi #norsemythology #balder #loki #mistletoe #edda #poeticedda

A quotation from the Poetic Edda

Now do I see  
                    the earth anew
Rise all green  
                    from the waves again;
The cataracts fall,  
                    and the eagle flies,
And fish he catches  
                    beneath the cliffs.
 
[Sér hon upp koma
                    ǫðru sinni
jǫrð ór ægi,
                    iðjagrœna;
falla forsar,
                    flýgr ǫrn yfir,
sá er á fjalli
                    fiska veiðir.]

A quotation from the Poetic Edda

The sun turns black,  
                    earth sinks in the sea,
The hot stars down  
                    from heaven are whirled;
Fierce grows the steam  
                    and the life-feeding flame,
Till fire leaps high  
                    about heaven itself.
 
[Sól tér sortna,
                    sígr fold í mar,
hverfa af himni
                    heiðar stjǫrnur;

                    við himin sjálfan.]

A quotation from the Poetic Edda

Brothers shall fight
          and fell each other,
And sisters’ sons
          shall kinship stain;
Hard is it on earth,
          with mighty whoredom;
Axe-time, sword-time,
          shields are sundered,
Wind-time, wolf-time,
          ere the world falls;
Nor ever shall
          each other spare.
          
[Brœðr munu berjask
          ok at bǫnum verða,
munu systrungar
          sifjum spilla;
hart er í heimi,
          hórdómr mikill;
skeggǫld, skálmǫld
          — skildir ru klofnir —
vindǫld, vargǫld,
          áðr verǫld steypisk;
mun engi maðr
          ǫðrum þyrma.]

My copy of the 2nd edition of The Poetic Edda translation by Jackson Crawford finally arrived!

#book #edda #viking #VikingAge #poetry

Hintergrundinformation:

Als #Edda werden zwei verschiedene, in altisländischer Sprache verfasste literarische Werke bezeichnet. Beide wurden im 13. Jahrhundert im christianisierten #Island niedergeschrieben und behandeln skandinavische Götter- und Heldensagen. Trotz dieser Gemeinsamkeiten unterscheiden sie sich ihrem Ursprung nach und im literarischen Charakter.

Ich liebe ja die Geschichten aus der #Edda und generell Erzählungen aus dem Kontext #Asatru und der nordisch-germanischen Mythologie. Heute habe ich #Udio also angewiesen, ein Stück über Lokis Frefel zu komponieren. Der Verräter instrumentalisiert den blinden Hödur und sorgt dafür, dass dieser den von allen geliebten Lichtgott, Baldur, während eines Spiels tötet. Wie kann es sein, dass eine KI Inhalte erschaffft, die mich so tief emotional berühren?

Found this anthology of Edda-poems at the thrift store the other day, curiously some remnants of “samnorsk” in the translation (it’s from 1975). #norse #edda #books

You‘ll never be as famous as the Eddic dwarf Litr, who was “kicked by Thor into Baldr’s funeral pyre for an unclear reason”.

Listening to the audiobook of LotR put me on a search for the source of dwarves (my fav plural) in fiction and folklore. First stop: Wikipedia. 🫶🏻

📢Out Now in OA: 'The #Poetic #Edda: A Dual-Language Edition' by Edward Pettit

📚 This book is an edition and translation of one of the most important and celebrated sources of #OldNorse-Icelandic mythology and heroic legend, namely the medieval poems now known collectively as the #PoeticEdda or #ElderEdda.

Included are thirty-six texts, which are mostly preserved in #medieval #manuscripts, especially the thirteenth-century Icelandic codex traditionally known as the #CodexRegius of the Poetic Edda.

The accompanying translations, informed by the latest scholarship, are concisely annotated to make them as accessible as possible.

As the first open-access, single-volume parallel #OldNorse edition and English translation of the Poetic Edda, this book will prove a valuable resource for students and scholars of Old Norse literature.

It's #Monday or #Mōnandæg [ ᛗᚩᚾᚪᚾᛞᚫᚷ ] - Mōna or Mōnē's day, the Day or the Moon God, his name is rooted on the old proto-germanic word for "to measure". It also the root of the word "mæl" (meal today) and #Mōna is the root of the word #mōnaþ [ ᛗᚩᚾᚪᚦ ] or Month.

There is very little written evidence left about Mōna, apart from his name being given to the word for today. However, as he is cognate to #Mani (Norse Moon #God) who is attested in Prose #Edda and the Poetic Edda.

I for one however, like to look at Mōna how the Germanic tribes might have, and let us create our own stories and traditions. That is how storytelling works -- nothing is made up, just remembered differently.

The #Moon was what was used to mark time, he travelled the heavens, guiding us forward, from the cradle to the grave. That is why some people believe he was also the protector of Children and life.

This piece of art, that I drew shows Mōna, cradling the children that he protects as he crosses the night sky and the passage of their lifetime. It is done in the Early Medieval Style

Tonight I took out a copy of the new and old #Edda from a public street #library located inside one of the few remaining historical (now non-functioning) public payphone booths once operated by #Telenor, somewhere in #Bodø, #Norway.

Need to remember to put a different book back in return on my next visit.
