The Norse Eddas are among the most significant collections of ancient texts in Norse mythology, preserving the beliefs, legends, and wisdom of the Viking Age. These texts, passed down through oral tradition before being written down, provide a glimpse into the cosmology, gods, heroes, and prophecies that shaped the worldview of the Norse people. At the heart of these works are the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda, two distinct but complementary sources that serve as the foundation of our understanding of Norse mythology. While the Poetic Edda consists of mythological and heroic poems that likely originated in pre-Christian Scandinavia, the Prose Edda, written by the Icelandic scholar Snorri Sturluson in the 13th century, provides an organized narrative and interpretation of these myths. Norse mythology is unique among the world’s great mythological traditions, offering a vision of a cosmos that is both grand and tragic. The stories contained in the Eddas depict a universe governed by fate, where even the gods themselves are not immune to doom. Central to these myths is the idea of cyclical destruction and rebirth, embodied in the prophecy of Ragnarok—the apocalyptic battle that will end the reign of the gods and bring forth a new world. Unlike the immortals of other mythologies, the Norse gods are flawed, mortal beings who struggle against inevitable destruction, making their tales both heroic and deeply human. Beyond their mythological significance, the Eddas also reflect the values, traditions, and daily life of the Norse people. Honor, loyalty, and wisdom are recurring themes, guiding both gods and mortals in their choices and destinies.Ver libro
From Max Hastings comes a collection of talks and lectures exploring the wars of the 20th century with the verve, insight and originality that has made him a number one bestselling historian. What is war like to live through, for civilian victims, especially women, as well as soldiers, sailors and fliers? Hastings has been a life-long student of warfare, a ‘chronicler of conflict’, working first as a foreign correspondent on battlefields, then as a prolific prize-winning historian of the 20th century’s greatest struggles. He has now been studying warfare for over fifty years, published thirty books, and given hundreds of talks and lectures. Here are thirteen of the best. Addressing questions of truth versus myth and revisiting many last-generation narratives, Hastings leads us through the most important conflicts in recent times. Listen as he explores D-Day, the Dambusters raid, Churchill’s character and achievement as war leader, Vietnam, and – in his most recent book, published in 2022, the Cuban missile crisis – 13 days when we came closest to annihilation and which stands as a mirror to the grave threats the world faces today. Max Hastings, the Sunday Times bestselling author, delves into the modern history of warfare, shedding light on the political relations that have shaped the world. His international acclaim is a testament to his top-notch storytelling and deep understanding of geopolitics. For fans of Antony Beevor (Arnhem), Damien Lewis (SAS Daggers Drawn), Al Murray (Watching War Films With My Dad), Peter Caddick-Adams (Monte Cassino), and Jonathan Trigg (D-Day Through German Eyes).
