About Vikings Bok: The Poetic Edda

Product description What is this new Paganism that is again challenging the spirit and values in people of northern European heritage? It is the Old Custom, and the Poetic Edda holds a vital place in it. This newly revised edition of the Poetic Edda uses the more readable, highly acclaimed Olive Bray translation and contains the Prophecy of the Wise Woman and The Hávamál. Together with a New Glossary of modern Heathen terms and an "edgy" introduction, this is a primary resource for understanding the Northern Way. Review "The introduction is concise and very well written and edited...I enjoyed the edginess of [Wickham's] perspective... The translation is very clean and reads well, and the text itself is engaging." -Dr. David Mazel, Dept. Head of English, Theatre, and Communications, Adams State University Colorado "Mr. Wolf Wickham is now on my list of those rare teachers to have given me a deeper understanding of my own ancient roots. I wanted to cheer when I read that it was his mission to 'root out the anti-Teutonic inversion of the Northern way and bring it back to life again...' " Laura Savage From the Author The Vikings Bók, commonly known as the Poetic Edda, is the spiritual foundation for the Heathen revival today. It is the indigenous, historical remains of a once widespread Teutonic spirituality that has been too long absent from the Western world. This newly revised edition is based on the rare and highly acclaimed Olive Bray translation. Together with a New Glossary of modern Heathen terms and a concise introduction, this single source book is a practical "must have" for those interested in following the Northern Way! About the Author The current publishers research suggests that the translator Olive Bray, a distinguished member of the Viking Society for Northern Research in London, came from a well-to-do English family and died at the age of 31 in 1909, the year after her monumental work appeared. Wolf Wickham, recognizing the value of Bray's translation, revised and published it in this new, user friendly form. Wolf has studied and worked for the restoration of primal Teutonic Heathenism since 2005, when he made an oath to dedicate himself to the advancement of the Northern Way.
