The Secret Language of German Folktales
Werner von Bülow
Werner von Bülow was a distinguished military officer and Armanist who served as chancellor of the Edda Society after the untimely death of its founder Rudolf Gorsleben. His major work The Secret Language of German Folktales reveals the hidden meaning of popular legends by investigating their Eddic sources from the perspective of Ariosophy. The occult relationship of names and symbols in each folktale is interpreted through the lens of von Bülow’s esoteric system, which is heavily influenced by the work of his predecessors von List and Gorsleben.
