Hello! Do you know of any good sources for learning about Odin that aren't steeped in neo-nazi shit?

There's a book that's going to be coming out soon, though will be very expensive, but which will undoubtedly be very good. Annette Lassen is a very good scholar: https://www.routledge.com/Odins-Ways-A-Guide-to-the-Pagan-God-in-Medieval-Literature/Lassen/p/book/9781032035710

Surely one of the best is The Viking Way by Neil Price despite its unfortunate title. It's also quite recent and much of the text is concerned with reviewing prior scholarship, so it's useful for finding other sources as well. A PDF of the older edition is floating around the internet although the second edition is actually a significant improvement. Maybe a little unfocused, since it only concentrates on Óðinn insofar as doing so advances knowledge of seiðr, although that's quite a lot.

Josh Rood's MA thesis is quite good and also includes a great deal of discussion of prior scholarship: http://hdl.handle.net/1946/27717

Stephen Mitchell has a couple of very interesting papers that have to do with Óðinn including this one, "Odin, Magic, and a Swedish Trial from 1484" and this one about necromancy. Some other scholars with papers and articles about Óðinn include Jens Peter Schjødt, Terry Gunnell, Ármann Jakobsson, Amy Jefford Franks, and many others. Luke John Murphy's thesis isn't about Óðinn per se but is about valkyries so obviously that can't be addressed without also talking about Óðinn. If you look at enough of these papers on academia.edu the website is going to throw other suggestions at you too.

One of the classic introductions to Norse religion is Myth and Religion of the North by E.O.G. Turville-Petre, which is now in the public domain. He has a chapter dedicated to Óðinn. It's somewhat outdated but still good for a summarized introduction to the raw material that more people are working with.

Obviously there is much more but this should give you a lot to work with, and like I said check out the sources that those works cite, especially Price's and Rood's.

As someone who was looking into this through the way I'm drawn to him in media nowadays, what books should I read to gain a better understanding of being a Lokean? I've bought myself a Norse Mythology book that I started reading a bit ago. I tried clicking on your reading list link in the FAQ but it just takes me back to the FAQ.

@nikboi asked:

I’ve been looking books on Loki. Lore, working/worshipping him just anything really about him. I tried a multitude of search and marvel was still the first thing to pop up. Do you have any recommendations?

Hey there. I've combined these asks into one like a Voltron for probably obvious reasons, but the main link that should be helpful here is our reading list-- I did try the link in the FAQ and it worked for me on desktop, but if there are any continued issues for that feel free to write in again or submit a screenshot, and we'll definitely try to get it sorted out.

I have very little to add on the recommendations part other than what's on that page in the links, but one thing I would point out is that even if you don't buy it from Amazon, they usually have previews of at least some of the text, which is worth checking out, and also that while it's certainly not required, there's also nothing wrong with having multiple translations: I have Larrington, Crawford, and then Gísli Sigurðsson's Icelandic version. Obviously the latter isn't what I'd suggest to start with unless you're familiar with the language and/or into pretty books, but more as an example that you have options and can change your setup on that front as you see fit as well. Additionally, while I do think these are covered in some of those links, Carolyne Larrington's Norse Myths: A Guide to the Gods and Heroes is a good option for more of an "overview," in that it's not just the poems or texts by themselves but a book that provides more context and explanation for things, which is very helpful if you're new to Norse myth in general-- E.O.G Turville-Petre's Myth and Religion of the North is very similar and available online for free (that link should take you to the Internet Archive version), but as with public domain translations it is a bit dated, so be prepared to possibly come across new scholarship/info and adjust for that (though that's really good advice beyond reading recs).

Checking out some of the posts on books and source criticism in our basic informational tag can be helpful on that front, and there's more in this resource list under the "Not Specifically Norse/Additional Research" heading-- I technically maintain it for OldBastard101, but generous mutual giving is the key to lifelong friendship, etc etc. One link I will point out in particular is the ASNC Viking Age site-- that link goes specifically to their Independent Research guide, but the rest of the site is a good basic informational start to learning the Viking Age, so it's worth clicking around.

On a similar note, while the Google searching (or god forbid, this labyrinth of a site) can be difficult, using search operators is very helpful for weeding a lot of stuff out. This is a good thread on them (though alas I don't think the tilde function works anymore), but the first two: quotation marks, which attempts to only search for what you have in the quotation marks, and then the hyphen/minus sign, which lets you remove terms from a search. Searching for "Loki mythology" also should take a lot of the Marvel or other pop culture out, so while you should still definitely check for sourcing/be critical as described above (typing and publishing something on the Internet, alas, still doesn't make it accurate), but it should give results more along the lines of what you're looking for.

Best of luck, and I hope some of that was helpful to you!

Today’s compilation:

Signalflow 1999 IDM

I am so totally floored by just how good this comp is. The UK's Toytronic label hasn't released all that much music since it opened its doors in 1997, but good lord, is the shit always stunning and intriguing when they do. See, with this, their first ever comp, Toytronic realized a basic formula: pairing IDM beats with deeply probing and emotional synth work makes for a very deadly combination. By doing that, your songs manage to hit both the feels and the head simultaneously, thus yielding something that's just so goddamn fulfilling.

And beyond that, a lot of these songs are pretty adventurous, too. They don't really follow much of a linear structure at all, and once you realize that, you generate a good bit of anticipatory excitement as to where exactly each track might be taking you next. "Caps Lock" by Multiplex is the song on here that I think best exemplifies this notion. The bookends are adjoined by a strangely quiet tunnel in the middle, and while those two bookends use a lot of the same sounds, they still sound very different from each other.

The emotional element that's added to this otherwise ostensibly robotic music and the unpredictable journeys that lie within most of these tracks are the things that make this, hands down, one of the greatest IDM comps that I've ever heard. It's relatively short, but this is such an intriguing and hair-raising good time. All killer, no filler.

Highlights:

Mr. Projectile - "Bleepy Pooh" E.O.G. - "Bulb" Num Num - "Bias" Braille mdxx - "Conviction" Accelera Deck - "U Can't Scam The Twin" Multiplex - "Caps Lock" Abfahrt Hinwil - "Sonic Surface"

“Many modern Heathens have claimed that Loki doesn’t have any historical people or geographical sites named after him, which apparently proves that he was reviled in his native countries. However, this argument is hardly viable, as there actually were people, places, and even stars that were named after Loki.

Axel Olrik provides a list of Scandinavian names which he believes contain Loki’s name in Loke in the Younger Tradition. In 12th century Northumberland, England, there is a record of a man named Locchi. In Småland, Sweden, Locke has been preserved as a hereditary surname. On a rune stone in Uppland, Sweden, the name “Luki” (Loki?) appears. It has also been traced to the place names Lockbol, Luckabol, Lockesta, and Locastum.11 Jacob Grimm also tells us that there is a giant’s grave in Vestergötland, Sweden, named Lokehall.

There was also a settler in Norway called Þórbjørn loki, and a man called Þórðr loki.13 Another name for Loki also prominently appears in the biography of Snorri Sturluson. Snorri’s foster-father was named Jón Loptsson (“son of Lopt”), Lopt being one of the most prominent bynames for Loki. Ironically, Lopt, Jón’s father, was a priest from a well-to-do family. It isn’t hard to imagine that at least someone from heathen Scandinavia was granted the name Lopt or Loki. Loki was considered to be the most cunning god of the Norse pantheon, and surely at one time it would have been considered auspicious for a clever man to bear his name. Though it is a common statement in the Heathen community that Loki has no geographical place names within Scandinavia, there is at least one in the Faroe Islands called Lokkafelli (Loki’s Fell). It is noteworthy that the Faroe Islands are also the country of origin for the folk tale Lokka táttur (or “Loki’s Tale”), which was first recorded in the late 18th century. Loki stars as the hero of this story, who is the only one who is clever enough to rescue a farmer’s son from a giant when Óðinn, Hönir, and Loki are all petitioned to help him. Because of the lateness and obscurity of this poem it seems to have been largely ignored or overlooked”

[gotojobin]

#HEL #THEUNDERWORLD #HELTHEUNDERWORLD Similarly laughable is Snorri’s assertion that those who die in battle go toValhalla, the sublime hall of the godOdin, while those who die of sickness or old age go to Hel. Snorri himself blatantly contradicts his distinction between Valhalla and Hel in his version of the tale of the death of Baldur, Odin’s son, who is killed violently and is nevertheless borne to Hel.[9] No other source makes this distinction, and several offer further examples to the contrary. The Road to Hel The Old Norse sources describe in uncharacteristic detail the course that one has to travel in order to reach Hel. It even has a name that comes up repeatedly in Old Norse literature:Helvegr, “The Road/Way to Hel.”[10]Given how closely the accounts of this course correspond to the narratives of traditional shamanic journeys of other circumpolar peoples,[11] they seem to recount, and possibly provide templates for, the journeys of Norse shamans. Throughout the Old Norse sources, we find instances of such journeys to Hel undertaken by gods or humans in order to recover a dead spirit or obtain knowledge from the dead. A journey by the hero Hadding from theGesta Danorum (History of the Danes) by the medieval Danish historian Saxo Grammaticus is typical. Here is Old Norse scholar E.O.G. Turville-Petre’s apt summary: While he was living with Ragnhild, Hadding had another mysterious experience. A woman appeared bearing some herbs. Wishing to know where such herbs grew in winter, Hadding went with this woman under the earth. They passed through mists, and then through sunny, fertile regions, where the herbs had grown. Then they came to a raging torrent, flowing with weapons. Crossing by a bridge, they came upon armies of fallen warriors, locked in eternal battle. As they pressed forward, a wall stood in their way; they could go no further, but the woman tore off the head of a cock, which she happened to have with her, and flung it over the wall. Immediately the cock came to life and crowed.
