 La religión nórdica precristiana 

 Teodoro Manrique Antón
 Fundación Juan March

En la tercera sesión del ciclo El mundo vikingo, el profesor del Departamento de Filología Moderna de la Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha, Teodoro Manrique Antón, analiza los actores sobrenaturales y los componentes mágicos y rituales y la amplia variación geográfica y social de la religión nórdica precristiana. 

A partir de evidencias arqueológicas y de fuentes escritas latinas, árabes y vernáculas, son examinados varios temas como los sacrificios, el papel de la mujer, el más allá y el sincretismo y la influencia de otras religiones. Para el análisis de las fuentes escritas en lenguas vernáculas, el conferenciante se sirve de la lectura de runas, poesía escáldica, poesía y prosa éddicas, sagas y leyes.

Lyrics from the Havamal

    Gáttir allar

áðr gangi fram

um skoðask skyli

um skygnask skyli

því at óvíst

er at vita

hvar óvinir

sitja á fleti fyrir

Before one would advance

through each doorway,

one must look about

and peer around,

because one can't know for sure

where enemies

sit in the hall beforehand.

From the Rúnatal

know that I hung on a windswept tree

nine long nights,

my own spear wounded me, dedicated to Óðinn,

myself to myself,

dedicated to Óðinn,

myself unto myself,

On that tree which none can know the source

From whence its ancient root have run.

None gave me bread, none brought me horn.

as I looked deep below

I caught up the runes,

shrieking I took them, And back I fell.

Nine mighty songs I learned from the great

son of a great one

I have drank of that wonderous mead, showered with the secrets and the lore

Thus I learned the secret lore,

prospered and waxed in wisdom;

Each word led me on to another word,

Each deed led me to another deed.

I caught up the runes,

hung from that windswept tree

that was me
