[Autumn Push] Are there any books and materials related to Nordic mythology that you can recommend?

The main work of Norse mythology is Ada Sutra, in addition to the famous Song of Nibelungen, Beowulf and Sybil's Prophecy. Those who survived the baptism of war and disaster are the Nordic myths we see now. Of course, most of the stories have been lost. /kloc-After 0/3rd century, the Viking power weakened, the influence of European churches increased greatly, Nordic myths began to be lost and banned in all parts of Europe, and the Vikings were forced to convert to Christianity and Catholicism and left Iceland in the form of poems and essays. These minstrels are called "Scudder". They were originally descendants of the lost Viking nobles and had a high level of knowledge. They can freely use all kinds of complicated similes and metaphors to record and create stories of Nordic myths and heroes, and they keep pace with the times. Some scholars say that the reason why Nordic mythology gives people such a sad but strange and heroic feeling can be said to be their masterpiece, because they are descendants of lost nobles who fled here. Therefore, my heart is naturally filled with the sadness of national ruin and exile in a foreign land. In addition, Iceland has a perennial ice and snow climate, and Iceland itself is a volcanic island formed by volcanoes. The land is rocky and barren, and the volcano on the island erupts from time to time, which is in sharp contrast with the cold weather. Therefore, it is not difficult to imagine how beautiful and heroic the Nordic myths written by these poets are full of tragic heroes. At that time, only Christian priests could read. They are responsible for recording and saving documents. They hate pagan legends, manuscripts and songs and clean them up. Only some materials survived:-Beowulf in England,-Song of Nibelungen in Germany and some fragmentary fragments -Saga (Legend of Heroes), and-Eda, two poems of Icelandic mythology. In addition, the Germans thought that the ancient Chinese character Runenschrift originally used was a magical spell. If the language is shaped into words, it is equivalent to giving the enemy mysterious power. Therefore, today is not only the belief of the ancient Germans, but also the way of life. Iceland is the last Christian northland. Missionaries seem to be more moderate or less influential. Latin did not expel the literary language of the North. People are still telling old stories in Mandarin, but the author and time are gone. 13rd century later, the old and new Ada (poetry anthology) and Philson and Sakya (prose anthology) were discovered one after another and rewritten in new languages [because the Nordic people first used an ancient language called Ford Huck, also known as Luna, which is said to have been created by Odin, one of the three pillars gods, and belongs to the ancient Germanic language, belonging to the 9th century. It is used to write poems and essays, so it can't be read directly in the17th century and needs translation. It was not until the17th century that it spread again in the Germanic countries such as Northern Europe and Germany, and became the only treasure in the study of Nordic mythology. The oldest Ada Sutra-Elders' Ada Manuscripts was written around AD 1200, that is, 200 years after the introduction of Christianity. There are 29 ancient songs in the book, and 34 similar songs have been found elsewhere. These songs have no titles, and the names of authors and editors are unknown. Scholars have determined that they are very old, dating from 850- 1 150. At this time, it was the Viking era. These pirates sent the legendary songs heard by the residents in the lower reaches of the Rhine back to Scandinavia and Iceland, and then they were recited by the bard and polished into the form handed down today. These oral songs were not written until the middle of13rd century. This is the process of the old Ada Sutra. -"Young Ada" is a prose novel written by Snorri Lu Sen at the end of 12 century. The main body is a technical paper that teaches people to write poems, plus some ancient mythological materials, which are not available in the old Ada Sutra. The old Ada Sutra is more important and consists of many poems, which usually describe the same story but are not connected with each other. There is great epic material in it, perhaps bigger than the content of the Iliad in Greece, but no Nordic poet rewrote the story before the Iliad like Homer. There is no genius in northern Europe to weld all the poems into a whole and become a beautiful and vast epic; No one even throws away the rough and ordinary content and deletes the childish and annoying repetition. Sometimes the old Ada Sutra lists several pages of names in a row. Although the style is poor, the story itself is brilliant. The poets in the old Ada Sutra seem to have a big concept, but they have no expressive skills. Many stories are great. Greek mythology can't be compared with it except the stories rewritten by a few tragic poets. The best Nordic stories are tragic, describing men and women who are determined to die, and even deliberately choose to die. They planned it long ago. Heroes are the only light in the darkness. What runs through all this is a tragic world view of fighting, which is in sharp contrast with the Greek mythology in the south. The battle of eternal robbery hangs over the whole myth, and the world of Nordic mythology is born and destroyed by war. The myth of any nation has the legend of Genesis, but the Nordic myth tries its best to describe the destruction of the universe. This is the biggest difference between the northern Germanic myth and other national myths, and it is also the masterpiece of these Schild people.
