April 2020 Meeting - Ragnarök
For our April meeting we will be discussing Ragnarök/Ragnarøkkr (Old Norse for '"Fate of the Gods"/"Twilight of the Gods"), a series of events/disasters, foretelling of the deaths of many gods and nearly all of mankind.
Our primary sources and readings for this topic are:
(1) Völuspá stanza 40 to the end. (found in The Poetic Edda)
(2) Gylfaginning chapters 51 - 53. (found in The Prose Edda)
and a bit of review for those who've attended our last few meetings
(3) Vafþrúðnismál stanzas 44-53 (found in The Poetic Edda)
As usual we will aim to meet on the second Sunday of the month (4/12/2020) with the primary discussion / public portion of the meeting starting around 5:30 PM.
Due to the current "stay at home" order this meeting will be conducted via Skype. I will update this again with a Skype call invite code on the day of the meeting.
With Skype we can use video and/or text. So no need to be on video if you're uncomfortable with it
