13 - Myth Selections | The Myths You've already read the creation story about how this whole crazy world got started from the Ginnungagap all the way to the development of the nine worlds encompassed by the World Ash Yggdrasil. Now the fun can begin. After reading this collection of Norse Myths you will have a good foundation with which to work. It will also provide you with a solid understanding of the culture which produced the heroes of the sagas which you'll study later. Required Readings: The events and gods related to each story are fair game for the quiz. You'll want to make certain that you know which gods are associated with the stories and any major events that take place. If you would like PDF or EPUB version of the books from which these came, check out the Resource: Course Texts. I have linked to adequate versions of the myths, but you may feel free to review all of the course texts to gain a deeper understanding of each story. By reading multiple interpretations you may find extra details or gain new insights. Assignments when finished reading: 1: Assignment: Thor's Journey to Utgard 2: Who do you think you are? 3: Fill in the (Ginnunga)gap Optional Readings: Feel free to expand your knowledge of Norse Myth by searching for any of these following stories in the course texts. Freya's Necklace Frey & Gerd Thor & Geirrod Heimdall |
