Lokasenna - A Reading
Lokasenna (The Flyting of Loki/Loki's Quarrel) | The Poetic Edda
Translated by Henry A. Bellows | Recorded by Folkbuilder Nicholas Rice
Lokasenna depicts a verbal contest or exchange of insults between Loki, the trickster god, and various gods and goddesses in the hall of the sea god Ægir.
The poem begins with Ægir hosting a feast for the gods. Loki, known for his cunning and mischief, arrives uninvited and disrupts the festivities. The gods initially try to ignore Loki's presence, but he provokes them with a series of insults and accusations.
Loki directs his taunts at multiple deities, accusing them of various transgressions and exposing their flaws. The gods respond with their own insults, engaging in a heated exchange known as flyting. The insults become increasingly vicious, touching on personal matters, misdeeds, and scandals.
The exchanges involve notable figures such as Odin, Thor, Freyja, and others. Loki's accusations range from questioning the integrity of the gods to highlighting their questionable behavior and relationships. The flyting culminates in Thor's threatening intervention, prompting Loki to flee.
Lokasenna is significant for its exploration of the darker aspects of the gods' personalities, their flaws, and the tensions within the divine realm. The poem offers a glimpse into the complexities of Norse mythology, portraying the gods not as perfect beings but as flawed and subject to moral ambiguities.
The verbal contest reflects the importance of wit and cunning in Norse culture, showcasing the tradition of flyting as a form of poetic and rhetorical skill. Additionally, Lokasenna contributes to the broader themes of fate, morality, and the inevitable conflict leading up to Ragnarök, the Norse apocalypse.
Lokasenna is a dramatic and provocative poem that explores the tensions and conflicts within the divine realm through a heated exchange of insults between Loki and the gods during a feast in Ægir's hall.

Hárbarðsljóð - A Reading
Hárbarðsljóð (Hárbarð's Song) | The Poetic Edda
Introductory Note by Carolyne Larrington | Main Text Translated by Henry A. Bellows
Recorded by Folkbuilder Nicholas Rice
Hárbarðsljóð presents a spirited and contentious dialogue between Thor and a ferryman named Hárbarðr. The conversation takes place as Thor, accompanied by his servant Thjálfi, attempts to cross a river.
Thor and Thjálfi arriving at the river's edge, where they encounter Hárbarðr on the opposite bank. Instead of assisting Thor in crossing, Hárbarðr engages in a series of insults and provocations, attempting to goad Thor into a confrontation.
Thor responds with his own verbal assaults, accusing Hárbarðr of being a deceitful and cowardly ferryman. The exchange becomes increasingly hostile, with both figures trading insults related to their respective reputations and actions.
As the argument escalates, Hárbarðr reveals derogatory details about Thor's past exploits, including his encounters with giants and his involvement in various conflicts. Thor, in turn, defends his actions and boasts of his heroic deeds.
The poem concludes without a physical confrontation between Thor and Hárbarðr, leaving the nature of their relationship and the reason behind Hárbarðr's antagonism unresolved.
Hárbarðsljóð is notable for its use of flyting, a traditional Norse poetic form involving a contest of insults and verbal sparring. The poem provides insights into the characteristics and reputation of Thor, portraying him as a powerful and assertive figure, while also showcasing the complexity of his relationships with other beings in the mythological world.
The unresolved tension at the end of the poem adds an element of mystery, leaving the nature of Hárbarðr's motivations and the potential consequences of the encounter open to interpretation.
Hárbarðsljóð is a provocative and engaging poem featuring a verbal duel between Thor and the enigmatic ferryman Hárbarðr, exploring themes of rivalry, reputation, and the complexities of divine interactions in Norse mythology.

Skírnismál - A Reading
Skírnismál (The Lay of Skírnir) | The Poetic Edda
Introductory Note by Carolyne Larrington | Second Introductory Note and Main Text Translated by Henry A. Bellows
Recorded by Folkbuilder Nicholas Rice
Skírnismál focuses on the god Freyr's quest to win the hand of the giantess Gerðr, whom he sees from a distance and becomes infatuated with.
Freyr sitting on Odin's high seat, Hlidskjálf, from where he observes the giantess Gerðr in her dwelling. Smitten by her beauty, Freyr becomes consumed by desire and laments his unfulfilled love.
Freyr's servant, Skírnir, offers to undertake the quest to win Gerðr's hand for his master. Freyr lends Skírnir his magical horse and sword, and Skírnir embarks on the journey to Gerðr's abode.
Skírnir arrives at Gerðr's dwelling and attempts to convince her to marry Freyr. He uses both persuasive words and threats, promising her rich gifts and warning of the consequences if she refuses. Despite Skírnir's efforts, Gerðr remains unyielding.
Skírnir resorts to using a curse-spell, invoking powerful forces to influence Gerðr's emotions and force her to accept Freyr's proposal. The poem concludes with Skírnir returning to Freyr and delivering the news of Gerðr's reluctant agreement to marry him.
Skírnismál explores themes of love, desire, and the use of magic to achieve one's goals. The narrative highlights the lengths to which the gods are willing to go in pursuit of love and the challenges they face in dealing with beings from different realms.
The poem also provides insights into Norse mythology's cultural and social aspects, including the significance of marriage alliances, the use of magical artifacts, and the interplay between divine and mortal realms.
Skírnismál is a mythic poem that tells the story of Freyr's quest for love, with his servant Skírnir playing a crucial role in attempting to win the giantess Gerðr's hand through a combination of persuasion, promises, and magical influence.

Grímnismál - A Reading
Grímnismál (The Ballad of Grimnir) | The Poetic Edda
Introduction by Carolyne Larrington | Main Text Translated by Henry A. Bellows
Recorded by Folkbuilder Nicholas Rice
Grímnismál features a conversation between the god Odin, disguised as Grímnir (the hooded one), and the giantess Geirröðr. The narrative unfolds as Odin provides Geirröðr with a detailed account of the cosmology of Norse mythology, the creation of the world, and various realms inhabited by gods, giants, and other beings.
The poem begins with Geirröðr questioning the identity of the hooded stranger, who is revealed to be Odin in disguise. Odin responds by sharing his knowledge of the cosmos and the interconnectedness of all things.
Odin describes the creation of the world and the structure of the cosmos, including the nine realms such as Asgard, Midgard, and Hel. He details the various dwellings of gods, giants, elves, and other supernatural beings, emphasizing the diversity and complexity of Norse cosmology.
The narrative then shifts to Odin's account of his own exploits, including his self-sacrifice on Yggdrasil, the world tree, to attain wisdom and knowledge of the runes. Odin also describes the fates of different worlds and beings during Ragnarök, the ultimate destiny of the cosmos.
Throughout Grímnismál, Odin imparts his wisdom and insights to Geirröðr, weaving a rich tapestry of mythological lore, cosmogony, and esoteric knowledge. The poem combines narrative and dialogue, providing a comprehensive overview of the Norse worldview.
Grímnismál contributes to the broader understanding of Norse mythology, offering a glimpse into the complex cosmological framework and the cyclical nature of existence. The poem showcases Odin's role as a wise and knowledgeable figure, willing to share his wisdom with those who seek it, even if it means revealing the inevitability of Ragnarök and the transient nature of the world.
Grímnismál is a poetic and didactic narrative in the Poetic Edda, presenting a conversation between Odin and the giantess Geirröðr. The poem explores the cosmology of Norse mythology, the creation of the world, and the fate of the cosmos, providing a comprehensive overview of the Norse worldview.

Hávamál - A Reading
Hávamál (The Ballad of the High One)
The Poetic Edda | Translated by Henry A. Bellows
Recorded by Folkbuilder Nicholas Rice
Hávamál is a rich and multifaceted poem that combines mythic narrative, practical advice, and mystical insights attributed to Odin. It remains a cornerstone of Norse literature, offering a window into the wisdom and ethos of the ancient Norse culture, imparting guidance on various aspects of life, ethics, and behavior.
Hávamál begins with the mythic narrative of Odin's self-sacrifice on the World Tree, Yggdrasil, where he hung for nine nights to gain knowledge of the runes. The poetic dialogue shifts to Odin's words of wisdom, presented in a series of stanzas, touching on diverse topics such as hospitality, the pursuit of knowledge, social conduct, and the art of living.
The advice in the poem covers a wide range of practical and ethical considerations. Odin emphasizes the importance of being mindful, cautious in dealings with others, and generous in hospitality. The poem also delves into the secrets of the runes, offering insights into their mystical and magical qualities.
The Hávamál can be broken up into various sections including Gestaþáttr (Guest's Section), Vetrnætr (Lay of the One in the Winter, or more correctly, Winter Nights) or Dómi Óðins (Judgment of Odin), Loddfáfnismál (Lay of Loddfáfnir), Rúnatal (Rune Song), and Ljóðatal (List of Charms).
The enduring appeal of Hávamál lies in its timeless wisdom, philosophical insights, and the embodiment of Asatru values. The poem serves as a cultural and ethical guide, reflecting the worldview and moral principles of the European people.

Vafþrúðnismál - A Reading
Vafþrúðnismál (Vafþrúðnir's Sayings) | The Poetic Edda
Translated by Carolyne Larrington | Recorded by Folkbuilder Nicholas Rice
Vafþrúðnismál is part of the collection known as the "Völuspá hin skamma" or the "Short Völuspá," and it takes the form of a dialogue between Odin and the giant Vafþrúðnir.
The narrative begins with Odin disguising himself as Gagnráðr and visiting the giant Vafþrúðnir. Odin challenges Vafþrúðnir to a wisdom contest, and they take turns asking each other questions.
The questions cover various aspects of Norse cosmology, mythology, and the fate of the world. Odin, using his cunning, seeks to extract knowledge from Vafþrúðnir while revealing as little as possible about himself.
The questions touch upon the creation of the world, the origins of gods and giants, and the ultimate fate of the cosmos, including the events leading up to Ragnarök. Vafþrúðnir displays impressive knowledge but eventually fails to answer one crucial question posed by Odin.
The poem concludes with the revelation of Odin's true identity and his departure from Vafþrúðnir's hall.
Vafþrúðnismál is notable for its exploration of Norse mythology and cosmology through the format of a wisdom contest. The questions and answers provide insights into the nature of the Norse universe, the interplay between gods and giants, and the inevitability of Ragnarök. The poem highlights Odin's role as a seeker of knowledge and the lengths to which he goes to unravel the mysteries of the cosmos.
