		<description><![CDATA[I have said on countless occasions that Dumézil and his theories are not very popular among scholars nowadays. I have read arguments against his tripartite system that were sometimes convincing, sometimes not, but no scholar who disgards the hypthesis of Dumézil presents a workable alternative. Currently I am reading the book The War Of The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am currently reading a very interesting book about &#8220;Compensation Tariffs&#8221; in medieval Frisia. Of course I will review the book when I finish it. The book speaks about the &#8220;feuding society&#8221; in which honour is of high value. The author explains the ancient idea of honour very well.
Compensation systems, of which the Old Frisian [...]]]></description>

Does the term “Asatru” not refer to much to the god of the ancient Scandinavians? Why do we refer to “Odin” and “Thor” and not [...]]]></description>

A couple of things made me want to have a look at the explanations that I was offered of the terms “Ørlögr” and “heilagr” and this book was suggested. I got a copy through my library, so I had only 3 weeks to study the book. The Germanic Belief [...]]]></description>
