Asgard and Midgard
Friedrich Fischbach
From the preface: “Once the home of the Edda had been established by the field names and topography between the Sieg and Wupper rivers, the question arose as to whether it was not also the home of all Aryan myths. The most thorough examination of Greek mythology brought the most brilliant confirmation of this hypothesis… If the Lower Rhine was the cradle of Aryan culture in prehistoric times, the further question is obvious as to why the emigrants were able to forget their homeland so thoroughly… As before, the Edda and the Greek myths will be brought into closer relationship, as the common topography is of the utmost importance.” This is an unfinished advance copy.
