Description:
A fresh look at the stories at the heart of Norse mythology, exploring their cultural impact right up to the present day.
The heroes and villains of Norse mythology have endured for centuries, infiltrating art, opera, film, television and books, shape-shifting - like the trickster Loki - to suit the cultures that encountered them. Through careful analysis of the literature and archaeology of the Norse world, Carolyne Larrington takes us deep into the realm described in the Icelandic sagas, from the gloomy halls of Hel to the dazzling heights of Asgard. She expertly examines the myths' many modern-day reimaginings, revealing the guises that have been worn by the figures of Norse myth, including Marvel's muscled, golden-haired Thor and George R.R Martin's White Walkers, who march inexorably southwards, bringing their eternal winter with them.
This sophisticated yet accessible guide explores how these powerful stories have inspired our cultural landscape, from fuelling the creative genius of Wagner to the construction of the Nazi's nationalist ideology. Larrington's elegantly written retellings capture the essence of the original myths while also delving into the history of their meanings. The myths continue to speak to such modern concerns as masculinity and environmental disaster - after the inevitable, apocalyptic ragna rök, renewal comes from the roots of Yggdrasill, the World Tree.

Great for guest towels
I needed hanging wall baskets for guest towels in our powder room. Especially during covid times, I wanted our one friend who visits to be able to use a fresh towel every time she arrives, as proper hand washing is extra important. I didn’t want to use paper towels.
These are the first ones I found that seemed like they might be workable. I love them!
They seem to be well made little baskets, and they are easy to install. Friend likes it a lot too.
I have one basket left, and there are so many possibilities. The size is just big enough, without being huge or sticking out too far. The gold color is gold, not rose gold, not yellow, just gold. There are no sharp edges or anything sticking out for towels to get caught on. The signs are premounted frames with little chalkboards that you simply side in. Chalk is included. Very nice, I’m happy.

Easy to hang
Color: Black
Really liking these baskets. They're very sturdily built, and easy to hang with the included screws and anchors. They're relatively heavy, so definitely use the anchors if you aren't screwing them into studs. The little 'chalkboards' for labeling each one is a cute touch, and they come with three colors of chalk, as well.
I did use a wood stain pen around the inside edges of the chalkboard holder's frame, so that it wasn't unstained and unfinished looking. The only one I had was walnut, so it's not a perfect match, but it makes it look more finished and I'm happy with it. I'm using one for holding mail above our key bowl at the door, and the other two are in my laundry room to hold my wool dryer balls. Just be sure to check the measurements so you know if they will work for what you plan to use them to hold.

Great value, stylish, functional!
These are just as pictured and super adorable! They can work for several types of decor. They have many uses too! We are personally using them to hang in the kitchen so the kids can keep their water bottle and cups for the day in them. We got tired of cups and water bottles all over the kitchen. Now they have a designated spot and it keeps my counters clutter free. Best part is we can label them so the kids can't fight over which basket is theirs. Functional and stylish- win win!

Study and looks beautiful
I was shocked by the quality when I unpacked these. They are a gorgeous golden/bronze color and super sturdy and well-made. I love the little chalkboard that slides out for labeling and it even comes with chalk. 10/10 recommend this product.
