challenging course

Amazing course

Well sourced.

thorough

Nice and (probably) complete overview of the poems and sources. Context of the time period could be better, because the turbulent times that made the poems written down are not fully explaned. Snorri might have written his Edda to prevent losing all the knowledge, explanations and history the Christians didn't like. There is very much disappeard, because there are hardly sources to find between 400 and 900 CE, which is the time we are to told that we already were Christians. It's been a time of religious war, that we are not supposed to know. Snorri probably was no christian, nor proves that he believed in the old Norse mythology. Adapting to Christian "values" ment preserving the Nordic Mythology. You might give him the credit for that. For lots of tales are lost.

The dreamy and vibrant mythology of Scandinavia is really awesome!Some of the gods of the region are ever remembered,like Thor through Thursday.Ivwas knowing it before joining the course!The mythological writing is splendid and mystical.For instance,as per the saga of Ynglings,Freyja taught Odin The skill of magic Seidr/Seid.Skaldic poetry,Eddic poetry,Snorric Edda,Pre-Christian Scandinavian religious matters, the myth about mead of poetry,the central theme in the sayings of the High One - all these spread the vibrant tapestry of the Scandinavian old Norse mythology.

An interesting course! I hope that the specialization mentioned in the introduction video gets made; I'd take it! The videos were perfect bite-size bits of information, and the as-you-go quizzes were helpful. There were some with answers that contradicted themselves though; that would be my only complaint! Nevertheless, a fun an interesting course!

I thought it was great, but perhaps, there were moments when it was a little dry. And while I think that is the nayure of the study of the sources, I felt that maybe, there could have been case studies, or more development of particular significant stories. But honestly, it gave me clarity. Thank you!

Course is suitable for me who is almost a total beginner besides a little knowledge on the sagas and tales. YOu will learn a lot of basic information and systematic information, but it will not go into depth of the characters, stories and myths, but it is nevertheless a good introductory course.

I'd give this class 3.5 stars if I could. The instructor seemed to be knowledgeable but the way in which he presented the information leaves a bit to be desired. Just reading off a powerpoint is not particularly engaging. I learned a bit though.

Extremely worthwhile course. Interesting material, well put together and well structured. The only suggestion I have would be to place more comprehensive explanations of wrong answers next to quiz questions, instead of just saying "incorrect".

The first week was very rough and almost discouraged me from finishing. It just feels like a lot of words and with the accent, it is hard to follow. If it was broken up by the little quizzes between each lesson it would be much better.

There´s too much text, more pictures would make it more interesting, like those of historical sites, runic language, original books from whitch the information its taken. Nice course and I hope to see a continuation.
