Les poèmes mythologiques et héroïques, la version en prose de Snorri Sturluson (le plus grand écrivain et mythographe islandais du Moyen-Âge, 1178-1241) de l’Edda sont les sources littéraires de cette étude mythologique. Chaque dieu est présenté avec ses attributs et ses fonctions à la faveur des textes qui le concernent et des mythes qui s’y rattachent sans faire l’impasse sur les incertitudes et les doutes de la recherche passée et actuelle. S’étendant sur 2 500 ans et sur un espace vivifié par les Vikings qui va du Groenland à Constantinople, du Nord de la Suède à Gibraltar, ce corpus de croyances païennes offre naturellement de singulières distorsions et présente cependant de confondantes continuités thématiques. À l’aide de l’archéologie, l’histoire, la littérature, l’onomastique et la linguistique, entre autres sciences, cet ouvrage fait non seulement le point sur les connaissances actuelles, mais encore bat en brèche certaines interprétations traditionnelles qui voudraient privilégier le côté martial alors que la civilisation où s’est développée cette mythologie a pour trait fondamental la troisième fonction dumézilienne.

When seeking to understand the function of mythology in the pagan past and in medieval Iceland scholars are confronted with the problem of how sources from the Middle Ages can properly be used. The articles in this volume demonstrate diverse angles from which Old Norse mythological texts can be viewed. Many discuss methodological problems in dealing with the texts and draw on expertise from different fields of study such as history, philology, literary studies, and history of religions. The authors are all established experts in the field, but demonstrate new approaches to the study of Old Norse mythology, and offer insights into possible new directions for research.
