Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies and Notes in Philology and Literature, Vol. 9: Scandinavian Influences in the English Romantic Movement Descent of Odin, in 1768, he felt obliged to append to the text certain explanations which implied that cultivated Englishmen of his time could hardly be expected to understand simple allusions to the elements of Scandinavian mythology. Half a century later, on the other hand, an English poet who looked to the Norse Eddas or sagas for his inspiration could be sure that a good share of his readers, though they might feel on rather less familiar terms with the deities of Valhalla than with those of Olympus, would at any rate find allusions to Odin, Thor, Freyr, or Loki perfectly intelli gible.l An attempt is made in the following pages to trace the steps by which various adventures of the old Scandinavian gods and sundry exploits of the Norse vikings, for a long time known in England only to a few painful antiquaries, gradually became more or less familiar to the English people at large.

Download or read book British Romanticism and Continental Influences written by P. Mortensen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-02-03 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1790s and 1800s, cultural critics became convinced that Britain was being 'inundated' by pernicious literary translations imported from the European Continent. British Romanticism and Continental Influences discusses Romantic writers' complex and ambivalent responses to this threatening literary invasion. Confronted with foreign texts that seemed both attractive and repulsive, Mortensen argues, Romantic writers such as Wordsworth and Coleridge publicly distanced themselves from European sensationalism, even as they assimilated and revised its conventions in their own writing.

Download or read book Nordic Terrors written by Robert William Rix and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2024-10-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century British literature, Scandinavia emerged as a setting for Gothic terror. This book explores the extensive use of Nordic superstition as it provided a vocabulary for Gothic texts, examining the cultural significance these references held for writers exploring Britain’s northern heritage. In Gothic publications, Nordic superstition sometimes parallels the representations of Catholicism, allowing writers to gloat at its phantasms and delusions. Thus, runic spells, incantations, and necromantic communications (of which Norse tradition afforded many examples) could replace practices usually assigned to Catholic superstition. Yet Nordic lore did more than merely supplant hackneyed Gothic formulas; it presented readers with an alternative conception of ‘Otherness’. Nordic texts—chiefly based on the Edda and the supernatural Scandinavian ballad tradition—were seen as pre-Christian beliefs of the Gothic (i.e., Germanic) peoples, including the Anglo-Saxons. The book traces the development of this Nordic Gothic, situating it within wider literary, historical, political, and cultural contexts.
Download or read book The Golden Horns written by John L. Greenway and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2008-06-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an introduction to modern myth, The Golden Horns masterfully encompasses a wide circle of historical and literary materials. John Greenway first establishes the theoretical base of his discussion by examining the nature of time in Norse mythic consciousness. After suggesting several ways in which the mythic apprehension of reality conditioned medieval Icelandic narrative, he then elaborates on the dialectical relationship between myth and reason. Maintaining that myth is neither true nor false but always either expressive or not, the author then traces the origin, rise, and fall of two great modern myths of northern birth: seventeenth century Swedish Gothicism and the Ossianic craze of the eighteenth century--both of which illustrate the singular tension in the modern mind between mythic imperatives and the impulse to de-mythologize. Finally, The Golden Horns traces the romantic belief in a "new mythology" which synthesizes myth and reason from its early acceptance through its eventual repudiation. In his conclusions about the state of myth in the modern world, Greenway postulates that we have inherited the romantic respect for myth as truth but lack the romantic faith in transcendence necessary to establish myth's reality. Consequently, we express our mythic consciousness of who we are in quasi-scientific language, consciously manipulating mythic symbols for social control.
