The Norse Creation Myths

  • Folkuniversitetet 45 Kungstensgatan Stockholm, Stockholms län, 113 59 Sweden (map)

We will delve into the enchanting realm of Norse mythology as we uncover the vivid tales of creation, where gods and giants, ice and fire, collide to form the cosmos. We will discover the awe-inspiring Yggdrasil, the World Tree, and the profound wisdom hidden in the Prose and the Poetic Eddas. Not only will the Norse myths describe our cosmogony, but also how the world will eventually end.

These lectures are part of The Poetic Reason Series, a series of lectures based on “The Poetic Reason: Or Enquiry into the Divine” (Azara, 2021), an investigation into divinity as seen through the lenses of history, philosophy and science - but also the heart.
