Book Synopsis Heathen Gods in Old English Literature by : Richard North
Download or read book Heathen Gods in Old English Literature written by Richard North and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-12-11 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heathen gods are hard to find in Old English literature. Most Anglo-Saxon writers had no interest in them, and scholars today prefer to concentrate on the Christian civilization for which the Anglo-Saxons were so famous. Richard North offers an interesting view of Anglo-Saxon and Scandinavian paganism and mythology in the pre-Viking and Viking age. He discusses the pre-Christian gods of Bede's history of the Anglo-Saxon conversion with reference to an orgiastic figure known as Ingui, whom Bede called 'god of this age'. Using expert knowledge of comparative literary material from Old Norse-Icelandic and other Old Germanic languages, North reconstructs the slender Old English evidence in a highly imaginative treatment of poems such as Deor and The Dream of the Rood. Other gods such as Woden are considered with reference to Odin and his family in Old Norse-Icelandic mythology. In conclusion, it is argued that the cult of Ingui was defeated only when the ideology of the god Woden was sponsored by the Anglo-Saxon church. The book will interest students interested in Old English, Old Norse-Icelandic and Germanic literatures, Anglo-Saxon history and archaeology.

Book Synopsis The Mythology and History of Witchcraft by : Bram Stoker
Download or read book The Mythology and History of Witchcraft written by Bram Stoker and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-10 with total page 3498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mythology and History of Witchcraft serves as an unparalleled compendium that traverses the labyrinth of cultural, historical, and literary perspectives surrounding the enigma of witchcraft. Through a meticulously curated selection spanning essays, historical analyses, folklore studies, and biographical sketches, this anthology unveils the multifaceted phenomena of witchcraft as understood across different epochs and societies. The range of literary styles, from the narrative to the scholarly, not only highlights the diversity within the discourse of witchcraft but also sheds light on seminal works that have significantly shaped or challenged the understanding of witchcraft, without centering on a single authorial voice yet underscoring the collective importance of the contributors. The contributing authors and editors, a veritable whos who of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries intellectual landscape, bring to the table a plethora of backgrounds in literature, history, folklore, and theology. Such a rich array of perspectives aligns with various historical and cultural movements, ranging from the Enlightenment's rational inquiry into superstition to the Romantic fascination with the Gothic and the arcane. In their collective endeavor, these authors not only navigate the complex narrative of witchcraft's history but also contribute to a deeper understanding of the sociopolitical and cultural contexts that have historically vilified or mystified the concept of witchcraft. This anthology is a must-read for scholars, students, and enthusiasts of history, folklore, and literary criticism, offering a unique opportunity to engage with the discourse of witchcraft through a multi-disciplinary lens. It invites readers to explore the convergence of different narrative styles, themes, and perspectives, providing a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of witchcrafts historical and cultural significance. The Mythology and History of Witchcraft stands as a testament to the richness of collaborative scholarly work, encouraging continued dialogue and exploration into the complex tapestry of human belief and the literary imagination.

Book Synopsis American Heathens by : Jennifer Snook
Download or read book American Heathens written by Jennifer Snook and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Heathens is the first in-depth ethnographic study about the largely misunderstood practice of American Heathenry (Germanic Paganism). Jennifer Snook—who has been Pagan since her early teens and a Heathen since eighteen—traces the development and trajectory of Heathenry as a new religious movement in America, one in which all identities are political and all politics matter. Snook explores the complexities of pagan reconstruction and racial, ethnic and gender identity in today’s divisive political climate. She considers the impact of social media on Heathen collectivities, and offers a glimpse of the world of Heathen meanings, rituals, and philosophy. In American Heathens, Snook presents the stories and perspectives of modern practitioners in engaging detail. She treats Heathens as members of a religious movement, rather than simply a subculture reenacting myths and stories of enchantment. Her book shrewdly addresses how people construct ethnicity in a reconstructionist (historically-minded) faith system with no central authority.

Book Synopsis Theology, History, and Biblical Interpretation by : Darren Sarisky
Download or read book Theology, History, and Biblical Interpretation written by Darren Sarisky and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-29 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian Bible serves as the sacred scripture of the Christian community. It is read regularly by many people around the world today, as it has been for centuries. But how should one interpret this text? This reader presents a variety of perspective on how to relate historical and theological considerations when approaching the Bible. It encourages students and scholars to ponder how historical and theological categories shape one's view of three crucial realities: the text of the Bible, the human subject who reads the text, and the nature of the exchange between the two in the practice of reading. As historical and theological categories are applied to these realities, are they mutually exclusive, or can they be combined in some way? This reader encourages students and scholars to explore these important questions by bringing together a selection of some of modernity's most influential discussions of the issues as well as some of the present day's most distinguished attempts to weigh in on the debate.
