Ce sont deux romanciers formidables que reçoit Claire Chazal dans « Au bonheur des livres » cette semaine : Rachid Benzine et David Diop partagent le goût du conte et le plaisir des histoires qui emmènent le lecteur ailleurs… Mais dans leurs nouveaux romans respectifs, « L'homme qui lisait des livres » et « Où s'adosse le ciel » (tous deux aux éditions Julliard), ce n'est pas d'exotisme qu'il s'agit, plutôt d'une réflexion sur les questions de transmission, d'identité, de résilience, d'héritage historique, le tout à travers des récits pleins de verve et de rebondissements !David Diop nous conduit ainsi jusqu'à l'Egypte ancienne à travers une intrigue double qui nous fait suivre son héros Bilal au retour de La Mecque, à la fin du XIXe siècle, tandis que Rachid Benzine donne la parole à un vieux libraire gazaoui dont la vie se confond avec les drames de la Palestine, sauvée par l'amour des livres.Ce sont des histoires très romanesques qu'inventent de la sorte les deux conteurs, et c'est aussi notre histoire commune, celle simplement de l'humanité, qu'ils interrogent à travers leurs fables aux résonances contemporaines, que Claire Chazal nous permettra de mieux découvrir.

HEADLINE: Erikson, Sagas, and Vinland Location BOOK TITLE: American Vikings: How the Norse Sailed into the Lands and Imaginations of America AUTHOR: Martyn Whittock 100 WORD SUMMARY: The source focuses on the westward journey from Greenland, established by Erik the Red, to lands sighted by storm-driven sailors. His son, Leif Erikson, led expeditions around 1000 AD to Helluland (Baffin Island) and Markland (Labrador). This history is recorded in the Saga of Erik the Red (13th century) and the Saga of the Greenlanders (14th century). They reached a land they called Vinland, described as having wild grapes and wheat, suggesting a mild climate and abundant timber. The small population in Greenland ultimately hindered sustained settlement. Based on where wild grapes (like the fox grape) and wheat grow, Vinland must have been located significantly further south than Newfoundland, possibly reaching New Brunswick or New England.

HEADLINE: Runestones, Artifacts, and Modern Misappropriation BOOK TITLE: American Vikings: How the Norse Sailed into the Lands and Imaginations of America AUTHOR: Martyn Whittock 100 WORD SUMMARY: Following the translation of the sagas, runestones (e.g., Kensington in Minnesota) began appearing, primarily after 1865. These are almost certainly fakes created by newly arrived Scandinavian immigrants seeking to claim "prior title" to the land by asserting "Vikings were here first." The only artifact likely to be genuine is the Maine Penny (Goddard Coin), found at a Native American trading site in 1957. It was likely passed along Native American trade networks, indicating Norsecontact as far south as Maine.

In this special Saga Brief, we wrap up our four-part series from Iceland with an interview recorded in the shadow of Snæfellsjökull, one of the most iconic landscapes in the country. This time, we are joined by Ragnhildur Sigurðardóttir, park manager of Snæfellsjökull National Park, for a wide-ranging conversation about the sagas, Icelandic heritage, and the powerful connection between people and place. Snæfellsjökull National Park is a natural treasure of Iceland and a must-see destination for fans of Saga Thing and lovers of history, literature, and nature alike. Located at the western tip of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, it was established to protect the dramatic landscapes surrounding the iconic peak of the glacier-capped volcano Snæfellsjökull. The park encompasses a remarkable variety of geological features, from windswept lava fields and jagged cliffs to hidden caves and mossy craters. It's a place where history, legend, and natural beauty intertwine seamlessly. After a full day of work in the park, Ragnhildur met us in nearby Arnarstapi at the foot of the massive statue of Bárður Snæfellsás. You may remember Bárður as the mythical guardian of the peninsula and central figure in Bárðar saga Snæfellsáss. As a self-described book lover and lifelong reader of the sagas, Ragnhildur brought a deeply personal perspective to our conversation, especially in her reflections on Guðríður víðförla Þorbjarnardóttir (Gudrid the Far-Traveled) from the Vinland sagas. As we mention in the intro, this interview came at the end of an unforgettable day that included a magical horse ride along the beach with Siggi from Stóri-Kambur and several stops at saga sites. It was the kind of day where the sagas feel alive in the landscape, which was one of the most important goals of this trip. And, if you're planning a trip to the Snæfellsnes peninsula, we highly recommend a stop at Stóri-Kambur, where you can ride one of their beautiful Icelandic horses and learn about the special place these animals hold in Icelandic culture and daily life. We're so grateful to Ragnhildur for sharing her time and insight with us. Her deep care for the land and its stories really shines through in this conversation.

David Beth has spent half a lifetime exploring the hidden aspects of consciousness, the malaise of the modern mind, the essences of divine archetypes and forms.We speak of how the Western World is a world only in concept, because it is based on safety, predictability and preconceived notions of what it should be. A reality based on human imposition. How do we re-establish a true relation with the world based on openness, listening and allowing, a world of never-ending creation, constantly making kosmos from kaos?DAVID BETH LINKShttps://theionpublishing.com/https://kosmic-gnosis.org/Intro text from the essay "Children of the Abyss"https://theionpublishing.com/shop/tfg_2revexp/PODCAST LINKS https://www.intheborderlands.com/ https://www.patreon.com/IntheBorderlands https://www.facebook.com/intheborderlands https://www.instagram.com/intheborderlands_podcast/ EMAIL contact@intheborderlands.com TORGRIM'S LINKS https://www.brittle.one/ https://www.facebook.com/kloverknekten https://www.instagram.com/kloverknekten/ MIKAEL'S LINKS https://smarturl.it/inanna https://www.facebook.com/mikael.oberg.performance.storyteller https://www.instagram.com/mikaelobergstoryteller/REFERENCESConjuring Creativityhttps://conjuringcreativity.org/Aleister Crowleyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleister_CrowleyThelemahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThelemaAnthroposophyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AnthroposophyMichael Bertiauxhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_BertiauxHaitian Vodouhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haitian_VodouLudwig Klageshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_KlagesMartin Heideggerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_HeideggerHomerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HomerGeorges Bataillehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges_BatailleSagas of Icelandershttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagas_of_IcelandersLeft-hand-path and right-hand-pathhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-hand_path_and_right-hand_pathMinotaurhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MinotaurArchon (Gnosticism)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archon_(Gnosticism)Biocentrismhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biocentrism_(ethics)Maya Derenhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_DerenCandombléhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candombl%C3%A9Umbandahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UmbandaQuimbandahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QuimbandaDionysushttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DionysusLanguage of the birdshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_of_the_birdsSiegfried/Sigurdhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SigurdSufismhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SufismMjölnir (Thor's hammer)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mj%C3%B6lnirGeisthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeistVeil of Isishttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veil_of_IsisKlaus Kinskihttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaus_KinskiAlfred Schulerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_SchulerAnselm Kieferhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anselm_KieferVincent van Goghhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincent_van_Gogh

Opowieści o królach, o możnych rodach, o poetach, o wojnach, biskupach, a w dużej mierze… o alkoholu. Sagi islandzkie powstawały od XII do XV wieku, spisywano wtedy historie, które w ustnej tradycji krążyły o wiele dłużej. Wiemy to, bo pojawiają się w nich postaci historyczne z X wieku. – Jest to bardzo szeroki wachlarz opowieści, a ten wspólny mianownik to to, że na pewnym etapie w Islandii one są po prostu spisywane – tłumaczy znany wam już prof. Jakub Morawiec z Uniwersytetu Śląskiego. Z nim i dr Martą Rey-Radlińską z Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego rozmawiamy o fenomenie sag islandzkich.Najstarsze sagi to poematy, dopiero później zaczęto je tworzyć prozą. Wygląda na to, że Islandczycy darzyli twórczość skaldów szczególną estymą. – W bitwie [pod Hjörungavágr] brało udział czterech Islandczyków i wszyscy byli poetami – śmieje się dr Rey-Radlińska. Co wyjątkowe na tle innych państw skandynawskich, po przyjęciu chrześcijaństwa (Islandia zrobiła to w 1000 roku) nie tępiono przejawów wcześniejszej kultury. Chrześcijańscy poeci i pisarze, jak Snorri Sturluson, chętnie sięgali po dawne opowieści, dzięki czemu zachowały się do dzisiaj.Bohater sagi ma jedno zadanie: rozpoznać znaki i zrozumieć, jaki przeznaczono mu los. – Dobrze spełnione życie to jest takie, które wiąże się z wypełnieniem tego losu – opowiada prof. Morawiec. Ale nawet bohater może zbłądzić, w czym wybitnie pomaga alkohol. W „Sadze o Jomswikingach”, którą właśnie przetłumaczyli moi goście, ambitny, dzielny jarl Sigwaldi pada ofiarą podstępu duńskiego króla Swena. Na uczcie przesadza z alkoholem i składa obietnicę, że wyruszy na Norwegię, by pokonać jej władcę, jarla Haakona. Alkoholowych przechwałek nie da się odwołać, Jomswikingowie pakują się więc w wojnę z Norwegami i ponoszą srogie konsekwencje.W odcinku posłuchacie też o tym, jak współcześni Islandczycy traktują sagi, dlaczego islandzcy chrześcijanie stali się promotorami rodzimej kultury, czy w sagach można znaleźć polskie ślady i czy oferowanie bogom siedmioletniego syna to dobra strategia na bitwę.W dniach 3-8 sierpnia w Katowicach i Krakowie odbędzie się wspaniała konferencja nordystyczna o nazwie „Sagas and Otherness”. Wystąpienia będą otwarte dla publiczności, więc jeśli komuś po drodze, to wybierzcie się posłuchać światowej klasy specjalistów od sag! A kto woli poczytać w domowym zaciszu, może zajrzeć na stronę Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Śląskiego w poszukiwaniu „Sagi o Jomswikingach” w przekładzie moich dzisiejszych gości.Link do informacji o konferencji: https://us.edu.pl/wydzial/wh/en/konferencje-naukowe/sagaconference2025/

This special Saga Brief interview with Anna Melsteð (of the Eyrbyggja Saga Society) was recorded at the foot of Helgafell on a drizzly afternoon following a full day of exploring key sites from Eyrbyggja Saga with Anna, Eyberg, and Guðlaug as our guides. Our day began with a quick viewing of the original site of the Þórsnessþing, mainly to get a view of where drítsker might be. We followed that up with a rugged hike to Vigrafjörður, where the Thorbrandssons and Thorlakssons famously clashed on the ice in chapter 45 of the saga. From there, we trekked to Bólstað on Álftafjörður to pay our respects to Andy's thingman Arnkell. We were even greeted with a rainbow, a generous gift from the best man in the saga. But the biggest highlight was walking the paths carved (allegedly) by the Swedish berserks Halli and Leiknir, followed by a brief rest at the overgrown ruins of Killer-Stýr's sauna, where their tale ended in steam and the tip of Stýr's spear. It was, of course, one of the most rewarding days we've ever spent in Iceland. The stories of Eyrbyggja Saga came alive in a powerful new way as we stood in the places where they unfolded. The day concluded at Hraunháls, where we enjoyed Icelandic hospitality, a tasty homemade cake, and a glimpse of the proofs for the incredible Eyrbyggja Saga tapestry. Can you tell who these two lovebirds might be? Also note the way the upper and lower registers contribute to the story. As evening approached, we finally drove over to the base of Helgafell to sit down with Anna for a chat about her work, the power of landscape in the sagas, and the growing community of saga enthusiasts on Snæfellsnes. We also got some more help with our Icelandic pronunciation. Be sure to check out what the Eyrbyggja Saga Society is up to on their webpage and follow them on Facebook. You can also stay at Hraunháls through Airbnb and enjoy the hospitality of Eyberg and Guðlaug.

Mark returns from an Alaskan adventure filled with stunning wildlife, river-spawning salmon, and a bit of history: from Russian sea otter hunters to the Gold Rush boom! He also shares a funny tale about a shopping mishap with a linen suit. Then, he dives into the serious story of animal abuse in LA shelters exposed by former GM Staycee Dains. Finally, author Kyra Davis joins to chat about her new historical novel, The Great Mann, set in the glitzy Black elite enclave of West Adams Heights during the 1940s—a world of jazz, galas, and the push-pull of cultural identity. 

In this special Saga Brief, we visit historic Reykholt, once home to Snorri Sturluson, for a fascinating conversation with Sigrún Guttormsdóttir Þormar, department manager at Snorrastofa. This interview is the second installment in our four-part series recorded on-site during our recent trip to Iceland. Sigrún generously met with us on a Saturday to talk about Snorri's life, legacy, and the important work being done at Snorrastofa to continue the long tradition of learning at Reykholt on the site. Along the way, she shared insights into Snorri's role as a chieftain, writer, and political figure in 13th-century Iceland, offering a more nuanced portrait of the man we often call “infamous.” If you're planning a trip to Iceland, we can't recommend a stop in Reykholt highly enough. In addition to its rich history, the Snorrastofa cultural and medieval studies center offers an engaging exhibition on Snorri's life, an inviting research library, and an exceptional gift shop. For more about Snorrastofa, including visitor info, exhibitions, and ongoing research, visit: https://snorrastofa.is Enjoy the episode and let us know what you think about Snorri's legacy after hearing from someone who engages with it every day.

On our recent trip to Iceland, we had the pleasure of speaking to a variety of fascinating people about their interest in the sagas. Our goal was to get a sense of how these individuals read and engage with these medieval texts in a modern context. Saga Brief 27, a 4 part interview series, is the result of those efforts. In this first episode, we chat with Björn Júlíus Grímsson, an Icelandic tour guide who loves to share the stunning landscapes and rich culture of his country on sightseeing tours and excursions all over Iceland. He's also a regular Saga Thing listener! Though the interview itself is regrettably brief, we spent a great deal of time at lunch and after the interview chatting with Björn and his lovely wife Zoe about the sagas, about the logistics of running a tour in Iceland, about audio production, and about life in Iceland and America. It was such a pleasure getting to know them, being welcomed into their home, playing with their son, and sharing that time together. And Björn was kind enough to join us for a walk through Þingvellir the following day. By the end of our visit, it felt like we'd known them for ages even though we had really just met right before this interview. As we begin working on our official Saga Thing tours, we plan to take full advantage of Björn and Zoe's expertise and talents. If you can't wait for the Saga Thing tour, you can get in touch with Björn through his website www.allovericeland.com and follow him on Instagram. You should also check out Zoe's music on Spotify. We're all big fans now! Music Credits: Opening song – “Rúnatal” by An Danzza Introduction – from Icelandic Folk Music: Tröllaslagur Outro – Ólafur Liljurós
