Balder The Beautiful: A Song Of Divine Death is a poetic work written by Robert Williams Buchanan in 1877. The book is based on the Norse mythology of Balder, the god of light, beauty, and purity, who is killed by his own brother, Hodur. The poem follows the story of Balder's death and the grief of his mother, Frigga, and his wife, Nanna. It also explores the themes of betrayal, sacrifice, and the cycle of life and death. The language used in the book is rich and lyrical, with vivid descriptions of the natural world and the characters' emotions. Overall, Balder The Beautiful is a powerful and haunting work of poetry that delves into the depths of human emotion and the mysteries of the divine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
