Es fasziniert, schlägt uns in den Bann und lässt uns manchmal nicht mehr los - das Unheimliche, das Übernatürliche. Auch in den alten Überlieferungen und Erzählungen unserer Vorfahren hatte es stets seinen Platz, waren Spuk, Geister und gespenstische Erscheinungen allgegenwärtig. Ein Versuch, Unerklärliches zu deuten oder zu verarbeiten.In seinem nunmehr dritten Kurzgeschichten-Band greift der Innsbrucker Autor Christian Kössler diese Thematik auf, erzählt traditionelle Sagen neu und lässt sie in der Gegenwart spielen.So begegnet man auf einer Rundreise durch Tirol seltsamen Gestalten, geisterhaften Wesen und sogar dem leibhaftigen Teufel. Von Innsbruck aus unternimmt der Leser eine Wanderung durch das Tiroler Oberland, weiter an Etsch und Eisack entlang bis nach Osttirol, um sie schließlich im Unterinntal zu beenden.In einem Land, reich an Sagenschätzen, welche durch dieses Buch wieder gehoben und in Erinnerung gerufen werden.

Tales are often told marking the vikings as no more than simple horn-helmeted explorers, infamous to abuse, pillage and plunder all that stood in their way. However, many of us lack to see the parallels aligned with modern culture, and the influences our viking ancestors provided and passed down to our own aspects of modern practices, beliefs, languages and pastimes. While there are numerous and vast differences to the viking morality and way of life, we can also uncover many similarities that can be derived within today's culture. Here's what you'll discover inside: A guide on the vikings origins, including their language, calendar, society structure, and military conquestsHistoric tales of the viking's customs, art, and shipbuilding craftA guide on the norse creation myths A presentation of the norse pantheonA detailed description of many norse gods and heroesAnd much, much more! The stories and myths of the norse were passed down by the vikings in oral tradition until they were recorded in manuscripts by anonymous authors in the mid-13th century. The myths that survived tell the story of how the world was first created by the gods using the dead body of a primeval giant, the existence of the different realms surrounding the universe, and various tales and lore about the gods' adventures.

One of the most pivotal myths of Hawaii, the tales of the deity Pele and her sister Hiiaka form a poetic saga of folklore that is compelling to read.Pele is the Hawaiian Goddess of volcanoes and fire, while Hi'iaka is her youngest sibling. The two possess a rivalry, and their adventures together and separately form the basis of the myths in this book. Much of the story is narrated through poems and songs; the ancient chants and hulas uniquely incorporate the emotional bonds and developments of the plot. The depiction of nature and the elements are evocative; lava flows and water heaves, creating beautiful contrasts and images in the tropical island setting.Nathaniel Bright Emerson was a doctor and author who was born in Waialua on Oahu in 1839. He was educated and spent his early career in the USA, but in 1878 relocated back to Hawaii. He was immensely interested in Hawaiian folklore, spending years researching and compiling the stories passed down in the oral tradition. Late in life he published examples of as-yet unwritten folk tales and legends, before finally turning to Pele and Hiiaka. This edition includes a handful of illustrations, that readers may envisage the lively and supernatural events.

1824. Johann, preußischer Offiziersbursche, ist nicht nur zu alt und zu schlau für diese Arbeit. Auch verhält sich sein Herr Tassilo von Wrangel leicht unterbelichtet und vertreibt sich die Zeit am liebsten mit Empfängen. Ausgerechnet ihn wählt der König als Voraustrupp aus, nach Sassnitz auf Rügen zu reisen. Damit gehören der Offiziersbursche und sein Herr zu den ersten "Touristen" in dem Fischerdorf. Zeitgleich wird eine unbekannte Leiche am Strand von Sassnitz entdeckt. Während ihrer Suche nach der Identität der Toten werden sie von den sogenannten Herthafrauen überfallen, die abseits jeglicher Zivilisation in der Stubbenkammer hausen.Die von Sandra Pixberg in historische Fakten eingebettete Geschichte fußt auf einer der berühmtesten Sagen von Rügen und liest sich so spannend wie ein Krimi.

Il s'était posé sur la grande pierre plate devant le village, et de sa bouche était sorti un garçon tout de blanc vêtu. Le pêcheur avait dit c'est peut-être un signe, attendons !
