WE PRESENT: digitalized
By Jonas Lau Markussen In Heimskringla's picture gallery you will find a large collection of works by graphic artist Jonas Lau Markussen. With graphical precision and simplicity he pinpoints the differences between the various styles of Viking Age art, he gives examples of Germanic style and outlines Swedish rune stones. New pictures are added every week. – If you would like to learn the art or just to dig deeper, Jonas has written a short textbook, which can be downloaded free or you can buy the printed version here. |
WE PRESENT: on print
By Axel Olrik In this booklet the author takes on the task of investigating what ragnarok means in the eddic poem Völuspá. – How for instance are we to understand the defeat of the gods and the downfall of mankind? – But the author does much more than just giving a description. In an attempt to grasp at the very core of the Norse ragnarok, he compares the various motives of ragnarok with similar motives in folklore, in Christianity, and in Celtic myths. – This is a publication from HEIMSKRINGLA reprint and is available here. | |
