Lee M Hollander's translation of the Poetic Edda employs some pretty amazing alliteration in translating the Voluspa. #poetrytranslations #leemhollander #poeticedda #thepoeticedda #voluspa #norseepicpoetry #snorristurluson #runicpoetry #poetry #poem #poems #poets #alliterativemeter #alliteration #poetrycommunity #poetryofinstagram #middleenglishpoetry #oldenglishpoetry #saint_wulfram @saint_wulfram #tolkienesque #epicpoetry #heroicpoetry #narrativepoem #narrativepoems #narrativepoetry (at Nashville, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsYh82AHvtF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ucwoskv74f24

#Freyr . Associated with peace, virility, good harvest and fair weather. His sister was #freya they were #vanir and children of #njörðr . Freyr told #Skírnir (his foot-page) that he fell in love with a beautiful woman #Gerdr and thought he'd die if he couldn't have her. He asked Skírnir to go and woo her for him. . Then Skírnir answered thus: "He would go on his errand, but Freyr should give him his own sword 'which is so good that it fights of itself' - and Freyr did not refuse, but gave him the sword. Then Skírnir went forth and wooed the woman for him, and received her promise; and nine nihhts later she was to come to the place called Barrey, and then go to the bridal with Freyr". #Gylfaginning XXXVII . According to the #ProseEdda Freyr had to fight #Beli without his #sword and slew him with an antler. . According to #SnorriSturluson Freyr was the most renowned of the #Æsir . Freyr then faced #Surtr at #Ragnarök without his trusty weapon and died. Could Surtr's sword be the same blade Freyr gave up? . #SWORDOFTHEWARGOD #norsesaga #norse #norsemythology #mythology #gods #writer #bookseries #book #skírnismál .

Old Norse Mythology is full of magic. 'Seiðr' is understood as a potentially shamanic source of sorcery, which may have included precognition. Practitioners were predominantly female. Men practicing seiðr found themselves subject to persecution because it displayed 'ergi', or effeminacy, which was greatly disapproved of in the age of the Viking. Despite this, Oðinn (or Odin), ruler of Asgard and god of wisdom, war, poetry, magic, and gods themselves, was a practitioner, much to the amusement of troublesome trickster, Loki (who was not his son, according to the Poetic & Prose Eddas rather than Marvel lore). Loki also accused Frejya, the goddess of war, death, sex and magic of being a witch. As the goddess of seiðr, Loki's assumptions were founded, but he caused outrage in accusing her of incest. Eventually, Thor arrived and sent the trickster to Hel, rather than the coveted Valhalla, putting a temporary end to Loki's mischief. 📸: "Ah, What a Lovely Maid it is!', which depicts Thor unhappily dressed as Freyja whilst Loki giggles in the background, by Elmer Boyd Smith, 1902, via Wiki Commons. . #generallygothic #gothic #witch #seasonofthewitch #magic #seidr #seiðr #norsemythology #oldnorse #vikings #vikingage #odin #oðinn #thor #loki #freyja #marvel #valhalla #norsewitch #proseedda #poeticedda #war #death #sorcery #snorristurluson #lore #mythology #history #gods #goddess https://www.instagram.com/p/BxctpNDgOrS/?igshid=18jsw4xso29w6

Packing our books. Can’t beat a stack of the Sagas. They’re going into the 20th book box so far. 📚 If you haven’t tried any of these, give them a go. They’re not as daunting or boring as they may seem. In fact they are fairly humorous at times. If you enjoyed Gaiman’s Norse Mythology, then you’ll enjoy these. I think (if I remember correctly) he used The Prose Edda as one of his sources. 📚 #bookstagram #bookaddict #readersofinstagram #instabooks #igbooks #movingsoon #packingbooks #packingboxes #saskatchewanbound #theproseedda #snorristurluson #thesagaofthevolsungs #thevinlandsagas #comicsagasandtalesfromiceland #hrafnkelssagaandotherstories #orkneyingasaga #penguinbooks #penguinclassics https://www.instagram.com/p/CATYDxogonO/?igshid=yc7sryx57e5b

“Who has ever wandered through such forests, in a length of many miles, in a boundless expanse, without a path, without a goal, amid their monstrous shadows, their sacred gloom, without being filled with deep reverence for the sublime greatness of Nature above all human agency, without feeling the grandeur of the idea which forms the basis of Víðarr's essence?” #SnorriSturluson
