Teutonic Myth and Legend by Donald A. Mackenzie is a book that explores the ancient myths and legends of the Teutonic people, who were the Germanic tribes that lived in Northern Europe during the Middle Ages. The book is divided into two parts, the first of which provides an overview of the Teutonic religion, including their gods and goddesses, creation myths, and the afterlife. The second part of the book delves into the legends and stories of the Teutonic people, including tales of heroes, giants, and dragons. Mackenzie draws on a variety of sources to piece together these myths and legends, including the Eddas, which are the primary sources of Norse mythology, as well as other ancient texts and archaeological evidence. Throughout the book, he provides detailed descriptions of the various gods and goddesses, their attributes and powers, and their relationships with one another. He also explores the role of magic and the supernatural in Teutonic mythology, and how these beliefs influenced the daily lives of the people who followed them. Overall, Teutonic Myth and Legend is a comprehensive and engaging exploration of the ancient myths and legends of the Teutonic people. It offers readers a fascinating glimpse into the beliefs and culture of one of the most influential groups of people in European history.An Introduction to the Eddas and Sagas; Beowulf; The Nibelungenlied and others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
