Myter om indlandsisens onde ånder / Lone Madsen.
Title: | Myter om indlandsisens onde ånder / Lone Madsen. |
Translated title: | Myths of the Inland Ice's evil spirits. |
Author(s): | Madsen, Lone. |
Date: | 1994. |
Language: | Danish. |
In: | Grønland. (1994.), Vol. 42(2) (1994) |
Abstract: | Tales are told of evil spirits and supernatural beings on Inland Ice. But author, after relating many cases of Greenlanders not liking to go on it or at least coming to life as they near its edge and sight of sea, comes finally to quote Greenland men and woman who would not accept any of supposed myths as indigenous. Tornit and qivitoq are subjects of various beliefs, but these are far from universal - there seems to be a myth about myths. |
Notes: | Grønland. Vol. 42(2) :62-67 (1994). |
Keywords: | 291.13 -- Myths and mythology. 291.216 -- Belief in spirits. T -- Social anthropology and ethnography. (*3) -- Arctic regions. (*38) -- Greenland. |
