Aesop's Fables Viking history The Vikings themselves did not write down their historical events. Historians have had to use other, more indirect means of reconstructing what Viking life was like. The Eastern Route A thousand years ago the Vikings traveled the Eastern Route, to the huge market places in Russia. There is an old Danish document from the 13th century that shows a boat route from Denmark along the Swedish coast to Åland, and via Hitis and Hangö to Reval, i.e. The Viking ships The Viking ships were ca 15 meters long, and they had a mast and textile sails.

GrimmFairyTales.com Suffolk History and Past Times - Yesterdays - Enid Blyton As a child my book shelves were filled with the books of Enid Blyton, the writer of children's adventure stories like the Famous Five the Secret Seven and one of my real favourites The Wishing Chair, which I still have to this day. Enid Blyton was born in 1897 above a shop in East Dulwich in London. Her father Thomas Blyton was a cutlery salesman from Sheffield, who enjoyed painting, writing poetry, playing the piano and taking photographs. Enid is said to have adored him. For her mother there appears to have been little love. Despite being rather musically inclined, Enid decided to train as a kindergarten teacher at Ipswich High School, and then went on to open her own infants' school taking on about 14 pupils. In 1924, Enid married Hugh Pollock, a soldier-turned-publisher, a divorcee eight years her senior. Enid Blyton died in 1968, but her books live on to this day.

Baśnie Braci Grimm Baśnie Braci Grimm i Mini Mitologia Nordycka - Cóż - wiele serwerów posiłkuje się moją pracą autorską bez pytania mnie o zgodę. Niektóre idą tak daleko, że wprawdzie kopiują i wklejają wszystko bez namysłu, ale dbają o to by pominąć moje nazwisko. Wychodzi na to, że godziny i dni na tłumaczenia tekstów Braci Grimm poświęcił Gal Anonim, a skoro on, to nie ja. Ja jestem złodziejem. Nigdy nie oczekiwałem wynagrodzenia za swoją pracę. Skoro jestem okradany z czegoś, co rozdaję za darmo, to pytam się o sens dalszej pracy Na zakończenie Adres Kontaktowy: forfun małpa buziaczek.pl - niezmiernie rzeadko (ostatnio wcale) sprawdzam pocztę, dlatego polecam księgę gości.

Inuit Myth and Legend Inuit mythology is a repository of Inuit culture, passed down by elders through generations to enrich and enlighten. My Mother's Story By Solomon Karpik, 1987 (courtesy DINA/PAN 83PR87 29). Inuit mythology is a repository of Inuit culture, passed down by elders through generations to enrich and enlighten. Mythology and Legend The definition of a myth is as fluid as myths themselves. The Inuit People Inuit who make their homes across the vastness of Canada's Arctic belong to a much larger family that extends from the Bering Sea through Alaska and northern Canada to Greenland. Inuit Mythology Like all mythology, Inuit myths and legends are both entertaining and instructive. Ancient Inuit oral traditions were employed as the most important method of conveying and preserving ideas, augmented sometimes by small carvings that may have served as illustrations for events. Myths and Beings Some Inuit myths are thought-provoking in their deceptive simplicity. Preservation
