The Maiden with the Mead

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Students of the Poetic Edda have long ignored a seemingly unassuming, yet most important mythical character: Namely the mead-offering Maiden that appears at the heart of many a myth and heroic legend. This study shows how the Maiden with the Mead appears at the climax of a ritual structure within the myths - a structure that clearly is based on Pagan initiation rituals.

The Goddess Iðunn

By: Maria Kvilhaug

Kvilhaug's book of The Goddess Iðunn uncovers her true associations and links through poetry and myths. Iðunn is often linked to concepts like youth and fertility, but why is this? Kvilhaug examines why she is so often linked to these concepts and offers to comparative view of the goddess to other myths that often depict similar goddess in the same light despite the fact that they do not share any actual source depicting them as such.

The Poetic Edda Six Cosmology Poems

By: Maria Kvilhaug

The Edda poems were written down in the Old Norse language by Icelandic scholars during the 11th to 13th centuries AD. They contain a poetical, metaphorical lore about Cosmos and the fate of mortals on the path to immortality. A lore that is, despite having been transmitted in writing by medieval monks and scholars, deeply steeped in ancient Pre-Christian beliefs.
