I never thought literature could be facinating. You and Dr. Jackson Crawford have made it so. This is history, which I love.

That man looks alot like Odin. I love the Seer's Prophecy. It just shows how the Seer is making their point in their magickial skill and the inevitable war amongst the high tree.

Thanks for this excellent presentation! I have a question about learning Old Norse: how would you suggest I go about it, given that I won't be able to come to one of your bootcamps? Should I just pick up the book by Kristjansson and Olason and the dictionary you mention on your page or are there any other good books or online resources you could recommend? I speak English and German... Would be grateful for your advice!

First, are there any resources you can use that are local to you? Colleges that teach classes? Reading groups? (We have a reading group at Hurstwic that meets monthly to read the sagas in the original and translate them on the fly. Some of the participants meet virtually, on-line.) Next option might be to use a Old Norse / Old Icelandic textbook that teaches the language. There are several. (The one I'd probably recommend is sadly out of print.) There are the 4 Volumes of the "New Introduction to Old Norse" published by the Viking Society for Northern Research that can be downloaded at no charge here (scroll down a bit until you find it): vsnrweb-publications.org.uk/ There are some on-line courses, as well, but I am not familiar enough with them to be able to comment on any of them. The book I talk about in the video would only be useful after you had some understanding of the language - it does not teach the language. And good luck. Your knowledge of German will take you a long way to learning Old Norse. Many aspects of the language that are mystifying to English speakers will be second nature for a German speaker.

thorleifr Thank you so much! I will look for an Old Norse course or textbook for German speakers then. In the meantime, I will have a look at the publications by the VSNR. By the way, I first got interested in old norse poetry by reading some of Tolkien's translations of alliterative verse. But there's something enchanting about both Old Norse and Old English, and I guess being able to read the original texts is the next best thing to time travel :)

Most of Old Norse is lost in translation. Danish is the closest to Old Norse and you could pick up some of the Ancient Tounge we used.

I wanted to ask you opinion on something I had wondered about No disrespect meant to any ones religious beliefs. All-Father Who art in Haven Hallowed be thy name Thy will be done Till Kingdom come At our Hearth As it is in Haven All-Father -Odin Haven is a small farming village to the south of Odense near Soby. Nice area to retire. Hallowed - Hail Odd - Odin Kingdom - the opposite of Freedom Ragnarok - the last battle for Freedom. End of the free world It was understood that after Ragnarok the "undead" would roam the earth, those unfortunate souls born without the Freedom to live yet are not dead themselves. There seems to be to much coincidence for it to be a mistake. Your thoughts?

You'd have to look at the sources to tell. I imagine (just speculating) that in translating the Lord's prayer or other New Testament material from the Greek that the gospels were written in, to their own languages, that Germanic people would use familiar elements if they had them. The question is whether that was done prior to Wycliffe and Tyndall (well after the Norman invasion). As I understand it, during the dark ages, the church kept everything in Latin, even in Germanic countries. However, it may well be that the Lord's Prayer in particular was translated into local dialects so that people could recite it on their own.

The Norse poetry sounds a lot like Indian epics. Odin corresponds to Lord Maha Vishnu in Hindu epic. Far Above Himalayas, to the north, there is a land called land of Gods. That's where Lord Vishnu is from. What I am interested in 5000-10000 years ago
