Excerpt the sons of men; But of his brain The heavy clouds are All created." Norse Mythology (R. B. Anderson). To support the heavenly vault, the gods stationed the strong dwarfs, Nordri, Sudri, Austri, Westri, at its four corners, bidding them sustain it upon their shoulders, and from them the four points of the compass received their present names of North, South, East, and West. To give light to the world thus created, the gods studded the heavenly vault with sparks secured from Muspells-heim, points of light which shone steadily through the gloom like brilliant stars. The most vivid of these sparks, however, were reserved for the manufacture of the sun and moon, which were placed in beautiful golden chariots. "And from the flaming world, where Muspel reigns, Thou sent'st and fetched'st fire, and madest lights: Sun, moon, and stars, which thou hast hung in heaven, Dividing clear the paths of night and day." Balder Dead (Matthew Arnold). When all these preparations had been finis

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Myths of the Norsemen by Hélène Adeline GuerberThe purpose of realizing this historical context is to approach the understanding of a historical epoch from the elements provided by the text. Hence the importance of placing the document in context. It is necessary to unravel what its author or authors have said, how it has been said, when, why and where, always relating it to its historical moment.The cosmology of Norse mythology includes a strong component of duality. For example, day and night have their mythological counterparts: Dagr / Skinfaxi and Nótt / Hrímfaxi, the sun and the wolf that persecutes it (in this mythology "the" sun is feminine and "the" moon, masculine) bringing darkness Sol and Sköll, the moon and the wolf that chases her Máni and Hati, and the total opposition between Niflheim and Muspelheim that gives rise to the world. This can be seen reflected in a deep metaphysical belief in the opposites for the creation of the universe.The Nordic peoples worshiped two classes of gods, one of them and the main one is that of the Æsir.
