Heaney, Seamus. North. London: Faber & Faber Ltd., 1975. Beautiful poetry, including a number of poems about<br />

the bog people.<br />

Hollander, Lee (tr.). The Poetic Edda. Austin: University of Texas Press, (c) 1962, rep. in paperback 1986. A<br />

beautiful poetic translation which is good for Teutonic liturgical use, especially when working with those who<br />

are less deeply initiated into the frequently obscure mysteries of Northern poetic usages. Unfortunately,<br />

Hollander was often forced to sacrifice accuracy for the sake of meter and alliteratio~ do not try to use this<br />

version for detailed magical study, especially when working with kennings and other aspects of the language<br />

used in these holy poems. What Hollander does offer is a stunning example of the use of Germanic English (as<br />

opposed to Latimzed) as it should be used in Teutonic rituals.<br />

Saga of the Jomsvikings. Austin, TX: University of Texas Press, 1955. A good translation of an interesting saga.<br />

Ingramsson, Ragnar Solve. “Some Ideas for Sacralizing Regular Events” in Northways, vol. 1, no. 1 (Yule 2238).<br />

Arlington, TX:North Texas Kindred, 1988.<br />

Jones, Gwyn (tr.). Vatnsdaela Saga.. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1944.<br />

Keyser, Rudolph (Pennock, Barclay tr.). Religion of the Northmen. New York: Charles B. Norton, 1854. An<br />

excellent book, dealing with the actual practice of the religion and music in Viking times.<br />

Lehmann, Ruth P. M. (tr.). Beowulf. Austin: University of Texas Press, 1988. A really beautiful poetic translation.<br />

List, Guido von; Stephen Flowers (tr.). The Secret of the Runes. Rochester: Destiny Books, 1988. A fascinating<br />

book by the father of modern runology and creator (discoverer?) of the Armanen futhark. Although sometimes<br />

von List ranges into the romantic, airy, or downright bizarre, his intense depth of understanding and brilliance of<br />

approach make this an important book to any student of runic magic.<br />

MacCullough, John. Mythology of All Races, vol. 2: Eddic. New York, NY: Cooper Square Publishers, Inc., (c)<br />

1930, 1958, 1964. One of the best books available on Teutonic religion as viewed from an Eddic standpoint,<br />

although MacCullough also works quite a bit with folklore. Highly recommended.<br />

Magnusson, Eirikr/Morris, William (trs.). G rettir the Strong. Totowa, NJ: Cooper Square Publishers, 1980<br />

(facsimile reprint of the first edition 1869).<br />

Magnusson, Magnus/Palsson, Hermann (trs.). The Vinland Sagas. New York: New York University Press, 1966.<br />

Marwick, Ernest W. The Folklore of Orkney and Shetland. Totowa, NJ:<br />

Rowman and Littlefield, 1975. A good guide to the survivals of Teutonic metaphysical views in a relatively<br />

isolated area.<br />

Munch, Peter Andreas. Scandinavian Classics, vol. XXVII: Norse Mythology. New York: The American-<br />

Scandinavian foundation,<br />

1942.<br />

Osburn, Marijane/Longland, Stella. Rune Games. London/New York: Routledge & Kegan, Paul Ltd., 1982, 1986,<br />

1987. This book deals solely with the Anglo—Saxon futhark; a number of their interpretations of the Rune Poem<br />

are very good. The attempts to set the runes on the Qabalistic Tree of Life are wholly ludicrous, but their<br />

generally experimental attitude seems a very good thing, and they do offer some valuable alternate perspectives.<br />

Page, R. I. An Introduction to English Runes. London: Methuen & Co., Ltd., 1973. A wholly mundane work of<br />

scholarship which should be read by magical runologists to keep their historical fantasies in perspective. Page is<br />

quite skeptical of magical interpretations in general.<br />

Pennick, Nigel. The Ancient Science of Geomancy. London: Thames & Hudson, Ltd, 1979. Sebastopol: CRC<br />

Publications, Ltd. 1987.<br />

Raphaell, Katrina. Crystal Enlightenment. New York, NY: Aurora Press, 1985, 1986. The basic New Age crystal<br />

text.<br />

Schutz, Herbert. The Prehi story of Germanic Europe. New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 1983.<br />

Storms, Dr. G. Anglo-Saxon Magic. The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff, 1948. The only book that I have yet seen<br />
