Elf Means “White Person” Amazon Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power Hates Tolkien!
Elves, by Definition, Cant be Black or Brown. Get Over it. 🙄💁♂️
The word elf is found throughout the #norse and Germanic languages and seems originally to have meant 'white being.' #LordofTheRings #etymology #Mythology
The word álf (pl. álfar) derives from the same Proto-Indo-European root word from which the Latin albus (white) derives.
The original meaning of the word is significant to the character of the álfar of Norse mythology, who retained their light-derived, divine status.
in medieval Scandinavian texts whiteness is associated with beauty, Alaric Hall has suggested that elves may have been called "the white people" because whiteness was associated with (specifically feminine) beauty.[38]
Some scholars have argued that the names Albion and Alps may also be related.[35]
These all come from an Indo-European root *h₂elbʰ-, and seem to be connected by the idea of whiteness.
The Germanic word presumably originally meant "white one," perhaps as a euphemism.
Often related or compared to the Vanir (fertility gods) in nature, the elves can be found in association with divinities throughout the Eddas.
The álfar are divided, as are faerie beings in many mythologies, between "Light" and "Darkness," which are often related to the dualistic principle "Good" vs. "Evil," though that is a leap of logic.
From the parallelism, though, we derive the two forms of álf: Light (or High) Elves and the Black (or Dark) Elves (compare the Seelie and Unseelie Courts of the Sidhe in Celtic mythology, the Angels and Demons of Christianity, and the Devas and Asuras of Hinduism).
Do note that Dark Elves, for being dark and/or light avoiding, are sometimes characterized as evil and so are sometimes maligned, but at the same time are said to aid both Light Elves and the Æsir at Ragnarök.
Further, it should be noted that the dualism of Light/Darkness correllates to the "struggle between Good and Evil," the Light Elves are often made into the "good guys," while the Dark Elves (and even Dwarves) are the "bad guys." Such a simplistic view, however, fails to evaluate the Eddas correctly, for the Elves (both Light and Dark), Dwarves, Æsir, Vanir, and Jotuns are capable of "good" and "evil."
