NORSE MYTHOLOGY
In the age of Vikings, many citizens of what is now known as Norway, Denmark, and Sweden left their native soil to journey the world in search of riches. Riding the tumultuous waves of the sea, the adventurers would come to be known as raiders, pirates, traders, and settlers across the European nations and islands. This is around the time it was discovered that, to the surprise of those the Vikings bombarded, they did not belong to a Christian faith. It was not one God they swore fealty to, but instead an entire pantheon.
Their use of myth and storytelling to showcase their divine pantheon stems not from a place of holy magic, but instead is found in the practical world. Their numerous gods and goddesses reflect the natural world rather than a single, omnipotent presence.
Passed through word of mouth, written in stone, and taken to page before being translated into hundreds of different languages, these mythical tales are truly held in the utmost respect to be preserved so thoroughly. They solidify the nature, the culture, and the faith of lives in centuries past, and are covered in depth within the pages of this book.
