IV. The Last Peal 

(Contemporary history)

438097

On 26 February 2014, I posted the following message to [friends] – expressly for future reference:

While in Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson over coffee at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík.

We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might possibly “mean“.

I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097, which I have posted [previously].

This is the final cumulative sum of a very large number of names of individuals, institutions, dates and events, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.

As I recall it, I first put this number on record in a message [to same friends], explaining that I would not be providing any further details on it. That remains my position for the time being.

I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.

An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.

Lady Macbeth: Give Me Your Hand

In ancient creation myth, as noted by Einar Pálsson in Baksvið Njálu/Background to Njála (1969), the World is created through strife. The strife is variously depicted as Two Brothers (Cain and Abel), Male and Female, Darkness and Light, Morning and Evening and, Einar writes: “Sometimes the strife is shown as the two hands” (p. 94). One hand is Male, the other is Female and: “When hand lets go of hand the Wolf [Fenrisúlfur, son of Loki] becomes unbound. Then all hell breaks loose on Earth.” (p. 132).

In Lady Macbeth’s exit speech – “To bed, to bed: there’s knocking at the gate: Come, come, come, come, giue me your hand: What’s done, cannot be vndone. To bed, to bed, to bed.” – there are three distinct allusions to imminent re-union of Two Hands, each of with is also denoted by the number Five as in 5 x bed, and 5 and 4, as in 4 x come, are also Male and Female numbers, respectively.

“Will she go now to bed,” asks Doctor of Physicke – ONE as Two Hands re-united. “Directly,” replies Gentlewoman – the Cipher Value of her reply is 4000, symbol of Cosmic Creative Power alluded to earlier in the LIGHT which was always with Lady Macbeth on her “command”.

Lady Macbeth’s role in Shakespeare’s play is that  of “the Genius of Antiquity” – alias Scialetheia or Shadow of Truth – “come to complain of our variety of fickle fashions,” in the closing words of a Shakespearean poem with that title.

The “great theme [of Troilus and Cressida] is infidelity…” – FAITH not found on Earth– writes Joyce Carol Oates.

I. The Shugborough Cipher Mystery¹

179294

In the grounds of Shugborough Hall in Staffordshire, England, sits an 18^th-Century monument known as the Shepherd’s Monument. The Monument contains a relief, depicting a copy of a Nicolas Poussin painting, and a cipher text that has stumped historians and decoders for hundreds of years. What is the meaning of this outwardly simple, 10-letter text? Why was it carved onto the monument? Was it a declaration of undying love, a code to locate something, or a Biblical reference? While the meaning of the Shugborough Inscription has never been verified, there have been several theories as to what it means.

The Shepherd’s Monument was commissioned by Thomas Anson, a member of the British Parliament, and crafted sometime between 1748 and 1763 by Flemish sculptor Peter Schee. The monument consists of a relief of Poussin’s painting, ‘The Shepherds of Arcadia’, which depicts a woman and three shepherds, with two shepherds pointing towards a tomb. Carved on the tomb is “Et in arcadia ego,” or “I am even in Arcadia” in Latin.

The mysterious inscription that has yet to be decoded is located beneath the relief, and contains the letters O U O S V A V V. Framing these eight letters, at a slightly lower level, are the letters D M.  So cryptic is the cipher text, that it became a feature in the international bestseller ‘The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail’ by Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh, and Henry Lincoln, and Dan Brown’s historical thriller, ‘The Da Vinci Code’. Both books presented the theory that Nicolas Poussin was a member of the secretive Priory of Sion, a Medieval monastic order, and that his painting ‘The Shepherds of Arcadia’ contains deep esoteric messages hidden within it.

Several famous individuals have attempted to determine the meaning of the inscription, including Charles Darwin, Charles Dickens, and Josiah Wedgewood. Each of them failed to determine the purpose or meaning of the letters. Numerous theories have been put forward regarding the meaning of this cryptic message, none of which have been verified. Some of the interpretations are acrostic, trying to match each letter to the first letter of a word, while others are non-acrostic. […]

One of the most popular beliefs, which emerged following the world-wide fascination with ‘The Da Vinci Code’ and ‘The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail’, is that the inscription encodes secrets relating to the Priory of Sion. Indeed, Pierre Plantard, founder of the fringe fraternal organization, adopted „Et in Arcadia ego”, which appears on both Nicolas Poussin’s painting and the Shepherd’s Monument, as the motto of both his family and the Priory of Sion. Proponents of this theory believe that decoding the inscription, supposedly masonic symbols, would lead to the location of the Holy Grail.

It is not clear whether the inscription will ever be decoded, nor whether it was ever intended to be. Whoever inscribed it must have known that the letters would last throughout the centuries, and be viewed by civilizations to come. It is possible that only a select few ever knew the purpose of the letters and what they stand for. So for now, the Shugborough Inscription remains a mysterious puzzle for individuals to try to solve, though its true meaning may have already been lost to the pages of history.

The Shugborough Hall Monument was constructed around 1748, featuring a mirror image of Poussin’s 17th century painting Les Bergers d’Arcadie and the letters D.O.U.O.S.V.A.V.V.M.  On the death of George Anson of Shugborough Hall in 1762, an apparent reference was made to the monument’s imagery in the following poem which was read aloud in Parliament:

17361 = Upon that storied marble cast thine eye.

15188 = The scene commands a moralising sigh.

14189 = E’en in Arcadia’s bless’d Elysian plains,

22857 = Amidst the laughing nymphs and sportive swains,

18540 = See festal joy subside, with melting grace,

14427 = And pity visit the half-smiling face;

21938 = Where now the dance, the lute, the nuptial feast,

19696 = The passion throbbing in the lover’s breast,

16971 = Life’s emblem here, in youth and vernal bloom,

  18127 = But reason’s finger pointing at the tomb.

Snorri Sturluson var tvá vetr með Skúla, sem fyrr var ritat. Gerðu þeir Hákon konungr ok Skúli hann skutilsvein sinn. En um várit ætlaði Snorri til Íslands. En þó váru Nóregsmenn miklir óvinir Íslendinga ok mestir Oddaverja – af ránum þeim, er urðu á Eyrum. Kom því svá, at ráðit var, at herja skyldi til Íslands um sumarit. Váru til ráðin skip ok menn, hverir fara skyldi. En til þeirar ferðar váru flestir inir vitrari menn mjök ófúsir ok töldu margar latar á. Guðmundr skáld Oddsson var þá með Skúla jarli. Hann kvað vísu þessa:

Hvat skalk fyr mik, hyrjar hreggmildr jöfurr, leggja,

gram fregn at því gegnan, geirnets, sumar þetta?

Byrjar, hafs, at herja, hyrsveigir, mér eigi,

sárs viðr jarl, á órar ættleifðir, svan reifðan.

Snorri latti mjök ferðarinnar ok kallaði þat ráð at gera sér at vinum ina beztu menn á Íslandi ok kallaðist skjótt mega svá koma sínum orðum, at mönnum myndi sýnast at snúast til hlýðni vid Nóregshöfðingja. Hann sagði ok svá, at þá váru aðrir eigi meiri menn á Íslandi en bræðr hans, er Sæmund leið, en kallaði þá mundu mjök eftir sínum orðum víkja, þá er hann kæmi til. En við slíkar fortölur slævaðist heldr skap jarlsins, ok lagði hann þat ráð til, at Íslendingar skyldi biðja Hákon konung, at hann bæði fyrir þeim, at eigi yrði herferðin.

Konungrinn var þá ungr, en Dagfinnr lögmaðr, er þá var ráðgjafi hans, var inn mesti vinr Íslendinga. Ok var þat af gert, at konungr réð, at eigi varð herförin. En þeir Hákon konungr ok Skúli jarl gerðu Snorra lendan mann sinn. Var þat mest ráð þeira jarls ok Snorra. En Snorri skyldi leita við Íslendinga, at þeir snerist til hlýðni við Nóregshöfðingja. Snorri skyldi senda utan Jón, son sinn, ok skyldi hann vera í gíslingu með jarli, at þat endist, sem mælt var. = 721747

The Tragedy of Existence:

Shakespeare’s “Troilus and Cressida”

By Joyce Carol Oates, 1966/67 – Introduction

Troilus and Cressida, that most vexing and ambiguous of Shakespeare‘s plays, strikes the modern reader as a contemporary document – its investigation of numerous infidelities, its criticism of tragic pretensions, above all, its implicit debate between what is essential in human  life and what is only existential are themes of the twentieth century. Philosophically, the play must be one of the earliest expressions of what is now called the “existential” vision; psychologically, it not only represents the puritanical mind in its anguished obsession with the flesh overwhelming the spirit, but it works to justify that vision. It is not only the expense of spirit in a “waste of shame” that is catastrophic, but the expenditure of all spirit – for the object of spiritual adoration (even if, like Helen, it is not unfaithful) can never be equivalent to the purity of energy wasted. Shakespeare shows in this darkest and least satisfying of his tragedies the modern, ironic, nihilistic spectacle of man diminished, not exalted. There is no question of the play’s being related to tragedy, calling it one of the “dark comedies” is to distort it seriously. This is tragedy of a special sort – the “tragedy” the basis of which is the impossibility of conventional tragedy.

This special tragedy, then, will be seen to work within the usual framework of tragedy, using the materials and the structure demanded of an orthodox work. What is withheld – and deliberately withheld – is “poetic justice.” Elsewhere, Shakespeare destroys both good and evil together, but in Troilus and Cressida the “good” characters are destroyed or destroy themselves. The “evil” characters (Achilles, Cressida) drop out of sight; their fates are irrelevant. Ultimately, everyone involved in the Trojan War will die, except Ulysses and Aeneas, and it may be that Shakespeare holds up this knowledge as a kind of backdrop against which the play works itself out, the audience’s knowledge contributing toward a higher irony; but this is probably unlikely. The play as it stands denies tragic devastation and elevation. It follows other Shakespearean tragedies in showing the annihilation of appearances by reality, but the “reality” achieved is a nihilistic vision. Thus, Pandarus closes the story by assuming that many in his audience are “brethren and sisters of the hold-door trade” and by promising to bequeath them his “diseases”. The customary use of language to restore with its magical eloquence, the lost humanity of the tragic figure is denied here. Othello is shown to us first as an extraordinary man, then as a man, then as an animal, but finally and most importantly as a man again, just before his death; this is the usual tragic curve, the testing and near-breaking and final restoration of a man. […] Troilus is almost a tragic figure – and it is not an error on Shakespeare’s part that he fails to attain this designation, for the very terms of Troilus’ experience forbid elevation. He cannot be a tragic figure because his world is not tragic but only pathetic. He cannot transcend the sordid banalities of his world because he is proudly and totally of that world, and where everything is seen in terms of merchandise, diseases, food, cooking, and the “glory” of bloodshed, man’s condition is never tragic. […] One mistake and man reverts to the animal, or becomes only flesh to be disposed of. As for the spirit and its expectations they are demonstrated as hallucinatory. No darker commentary on the predicament of man has ever been written. If tragedy is a critique of humanism from the inside, Troilus and Cressida is a tragedy that calls into question the very pretensions of tragedy itself.

Foreword by Sir Derek Jacobi

An actor faces almost constant criticism – all the more so when one advocates that Edward de Vere [alias Oxenford] wrote under the pen name “Shakespeare.” Some of the more popular accusations today include charges of the wildest eccentricity, outrageous snobbery, and downright heresy. It’s pointless, of course, to engage these unbecoming personal attacks. Fortunately, serious academic debate is triumphing while orthodoxy continues its retreat behind a façade of mind-numbing vilification. Herein, dear reader, you will find a book that performs the important, often fraught, always contentious, but necessary service of turning the spotlight full on the breathtaking discrepancies and shining anomalies in the accepted version of the creation of the Shakespeare canon.

So what does the Shakespeare authorship controversy mean for the poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage? It means, in brief, that we happy few have the opportunity at last to make contact with the original fount of thought and reason, to comprehend the hand that wrote, the eye that saw, the brain that forged, the heart that conceived, and the being that transformed a monumental life into an immortal corpus of literature.

An actor’s instincts and the evidence of a growing body of research convinces me that de Vere was – along with being a scholar, patron, and author par excellence – an actor. The troupe kept by Edward de Vere’s father had influenced his early childhood. De Vere’s own troupe had nurtured those interests, and acting and stagecraft became intrinsic in his talents. Hence the precise and very special observation of the mechanics and meaning of the world of the theater are everywhere expressed in the plays, often as instinctive comments on various serious topics.

In ”Shakespeare”  by Another Name, Mark Anderson demonstrates the intense intellectual energy and attention to factual detail that are required to unravel what, to honest minds, is an obvious mystery. ”Shakespeare”  by Another Name presents the logical, valid, and excitingly precise arguments for recognizing that de Vere, like all writers, drew from his own experience, interests, accomplishments, education, position, and talents, and that he invested his writing with universal truths, emotional reality, and recognizable humanity drawn from his own unique life. Just as de Vere uses theatrical phrase and metaphor naturally and easily, so, too, his wide-ranging education and ingrained knowledge of many subjects flow effortlessly through his writing. Contrast this with the lack of any evidence which places a pen in the hand of William of Stratford (except, of course, on a dubious monument!).

The great excitement of this seminal work is the precise relationship of how much of himself de Vere put into his characters. This book, with fascinating specificity, suits “the action to the word, the word to the action.” Innumerable unusual circumstances find expression in his plays and poems. ”Shakespeare”  by Another Name is one of the very best whodunnits you will ever read.

The game’s afoot!

I. ‟Open to me, I come for you.”

(Letter to Italian publisher¹)

331909

You are right, sir, when you tell me that Les Misérables is written for all nations. I do not know whether it will be read by all, but I wrote it for all. It is addressed to England as well as to Spain, to Italy as well as to France, to Germany as well as to Ireland, to Republics which have slaves as well as to Empires whichhave serfs. Social problems overstep frontiers. The sores of the human race, those great sores which cover the globe, do not halt at the red or blue lines traced upon the map. In every place where man is ignorant and despairing, in every place where woman is sold for bread, wherever the child suffers for lack of the book which should instruct him and of the hearth which should warm him, the book of Les Misérables knocks at the door and says: „Open to me, I come for you.“ = 331909

Þat er frá Sturlu sagt, at hann fór til Íslands með lögbók þá, er Magnús konungr hafði skipat. Var hann þá skipaðr lögmaðr yfir allt Ísland. Váru þá lagaskipti á Íslandi. Tók hann þá við búi um haustit í Fagradal af Skeggja bónda. Þann vetr var með Sturlu Þórðr Narfason.

Þat var eitt sinn um vetrinn, at þangat kom til Sturlu Bárðr, sonr Einars Ásgrímssonar. Hann fór á skipi. En þann dag eftir, er þeir fóru á brott, laust á veðri miklu fyrir þeim,   ok uggðu menn, at þeir myndi týnast. Þórðr gekk út ok inn, hugði at, ef veðr minnkaði.  Ok eitt sinn, er hann kom inn, mælti Sturla: „Vertu kátr, Þórðr, eigi mun Bárðr, frændi þinn, drukkna í þessari ferð.” „Þat muntu aldri vita,” segir Þórðr. En þat fréttist þá síðar, sem Sturla sagði. Nökkuru síðar um várit tók Bárðr sótt. Þá spurði Þórðr Sturlu, hvárt Bárðr myndi upp standa ór sóttinni eða eigi. „Skil ek nú,” segir Sturla, „hví þú spyrr þessa, en fá mér nú vaxspjöld mín.” Lék hann þar at um hríð. Litlu síðar mælti Sturla: „Ór þessari sótt mun Bárðr andast.” Þat fór svá.

Sturla fór þá til Staðarhóls búi sínu ok hafði lögsögn, þar til er hófust deilur milli kennimanna ok leikmanna um staðamál. Lét Sturla þá lögsögn lausa ok settist hjá öllum vandræðum, er þar af gerðust. Margir menn heyrðu Árna byskup þat mæla, – ok þótti þat merkiligt, – at Sturla myndi nökkurs mikils góðs at njóta, er hann gekk frá þessum vanda. Tók þá lögsögn Jón Einarsson ok Erlendr sterki.

Sturla gerði bú í Fagrey, en fekk Snorra, syni sínum, land á Staðarhóli til ábúðar. Sat Sturla þá í góðri virðing, þar til er hann andaðist einni nótt eftir Óláfsmessudag. Var hann ok Óláfsmessudag fyrst í heim ok Óláfsmessudag síðast. Hann var þá nær sjautugr, er hann andaðist. Var líkami hans færðr á Staðarhól ok jarðaðr þar at kirkju Pétrs postula, er hann hafði mesta elsku á haft af öllum helgum mönnum. = 777077.

Ok er hann kom, kvaddi hann konung ok mælti síðan: „Hvat vilið þér mér, herra?” Konungr bað taka silfrker, fullt af víni, ok drakk af nökkut, fekk síðan Sturlu ok mælti: „Vín skal til vinar drekka.”

Sturla mælti: „Guð sé lofaðr, at svá sé.”

„Svá skal vera,”segir konungr. „En nú vil ek, at þú kveðir kvæðit, þat sem þú hefir ort um föður minn.” Sturla kvað þá kvæðit. En er lokit var, lofuðu menn mjök ok mest dróttning.

Aðfangadagur jóla

24. desember 2015

I. Þá sýndist ok sólin rauð sem blóð.

(Íslendinga saga, 49. kafli)

679417¹

Þetta sumar, er næst var ok nú hefir frá verit sagt, tók sótt Sæmundr í Odda ok andaðist inn sjaunda idus novembris. Þat sama haust ok öndverðan vetr sást oft stjarna sú, er kómeta heitir. Þá sýndist ok sólin rauð sem blóð.

En þat var tilskipan Sæmundar, at Solveig, dóttir hans, skyldi taka jafnmikinn arf sem einn hverr sona hans. Fór Solveig þá til Keldna til móður sinnar. Ok sóttu þær Þorvald Gizurarson at því, at hann skyldi halda fram hlut Solveigar um skipti við bræðr hennar. Synir Sæmundar urðu á þat sáttir, at þeir skyldi því hlíta um fjárskipti, sem Snorri Sturluson skipti með þeim, ok sendu þeir eftir honum um vetrinn, at hann skyldi koma suðr til fjárskiptis.

Fór Snorri þá suðr ok Ingimundr Jónsson ok Ásgrímr Bergþórsson ok höfðu gott föruneyti. Hann gisti at Keldum. Var hann þar í kærleikum miklum við þær mæðgur, ok fór Solveig í Odda með honum. Þótti Snorra allskemmtiligt at tala við hana. En er þau riðu frá Keldum, reið kona á móti þeim ok hafði flakaólpu bláa ok saumuð flökin at höfði henni. Hafði hon þat fyrir hattinn. Einn maðr var með henni. En þat var Hallveig Ormsdóttir, er þá var féríkust á Íslandi. Snorra þótti hennar ferð heldr hæðilig ok brosti at.

Snorri fór í Odda ok stillti svá til, at Solveig hafði koseyri af arfi, þeim er hon rétti hendr til. En mest helt hann fram hlut Hálfdanar af öllum sonum Sæmundar. Þær mæðgur létu föng sín fara út í Hruna í vald Þorvalds Gizurarsonar ok bundu honum á hendi allt sitt ráð.

Þenna vetr fóru orðsendingar millum þeira Þorvalds Gizurarsonar ok Sighvats Sturlusonar. = 679417¹

II. Sigurður Nordal – Fégirni Snorra

(Mannlýsingar I, bls. 55-56)

Í þessum málum öllum sést gjörla, hvernig andstæðar hvatir berjast í Snorra. Solveig hrífur hug hans, enda hefur hún eftir öllu að dæma verið hin glæsilegasta kona, og við skiptin heldur hann fram hag hennar, sem hann hefur ætlazt til, að með tímanum yrði líka hans eigin hagur. En hann kann ekki við að biðja hennar þegar í stað, enda hefði þá hlutdrægni hans við skiptin orðið berari. Hann bíður, bæði af nærgætni við Solveigu og til þess að sneiða hjá dómum manna. Síðan verður Sturla fyrri til, og Snorri situr eftir með sárt ennið. Hann hafði verið of eigingjarn til þess að vera réttlátur, en hins vegar ekki nógu óbilgjarn til þess að færa sér gerðir sínar að fullu í nyt. En hann finnur sárabætur. Þó að búningur Hallveigar og framkoma bryti í bág við smekkvísi hans, þá hafði auðlegð hennar því meiri tök á fégirni hans, svo að hann gat sætt sig við það ráð í stað Solveigar Sæmundardóttur.

V. Prince Hamlet – Cosmic Creative Power

(© Giorgio de Santillana)

This is meant to be only an essay.  It is a first reconnaissance of a realm well-nigh unexplored and uncharted.  From whichever way one enters it, one is caught in the same bewildering circular complexity, as in a labyrinth, for it has no deductive order in the abstract sense, but instead resembles an organism tightly closed in itself, or even better, a monumental „Art of the Fugue.“

The figure of Hamlet as a favorable starting point came by chance.  Many other avenues offered themselves, rich in strange symbols and beckoning with great images, but the choice went to Hamlet because he led the mind on a truly inductive quest through a familiar landscape – and one which has the merit of its literary setting.  Here is a character deeply present to our awareness, in whom ambiguities and uncertainties, tormented self-questioning and dispassionate insight give a presentiment of the modern mind.  His personal drama was that he had to be a hero, but still try to avoid the role Destiny assigned him.  His lucid intellect remained above the conflict of motives – in other words, his was and is a truly contemporary consciousness.  And yet this character whom the poet made one of us, the first unhappy intellectual, concealed a past as a legendary being, his features predetermined, preshaped by long-standing myth.  There was a numinous aura around him, and many clues led up to him.  But it was a surprise to find behind the mask an ancient and all-embracing cosmic power – the original master of the dreamed-of first age of the world.

Yet in all his guises he remained strangely himself.  The original Amlóði, as his name was in Icelandic legend, shows the same characteristics of melancholy and high intellect.  He, too, is a son dedicated to avenge his father, a speaker of cryptic but inescapable truths, an elusive carrier of Fate who must yield once his mission is accomplished and sink once more into concealment in the depths of time to which he belongs:  Lord of the Golden Age, the Once and Future King.

This essay will follow the figure farther and farther afield, from the Northland to Rome, from there to Finland, Iran, and India; he will appear again unmistakably in Polynesian legend.  Many other Dominions and Powers will materialize to frame him within the proper order.

Amlóði was identified, in the crude and vivid imagery of the Norse, by the ownership of a fabled mill which, in his own time, ground out peace and plenty.  Later, in decaying times, it ground out salt; and now finally, having landed at the bottom of the sea, it is grinding rock and sand, creating a vast whirlpool, the Maelstrom (i.e. the grinding stream, from the verb mala, „to grind“), which is supposed to be a way to the land of the dead.  This imagery stands, as the evidence develops, for an astronomical process, the secular shifting of the sun through the signs of the zodiac which determines world-ages, each numbering thousands of years.  Each age brings a World Era, a Twilight of the Gods.  Great structures collapse; pillars topple which supported the great fabric; floods and cataclysms herald the shaping of a new world. (Hamlet’s Mill – An Essay on Myth and the Frame of Time, 1969; Second Paperback Edition, David R. Godine, Publisher, Boston, 1983, pp. 1-2.)

Ritháttur Snorra – Uppsala Edda

(Sigurður Nordal)

Í vörzlu Háskólabókasafnsins í Uppsölum er íslenzk skinnbók frá því um 1300 með svolátandi fyrirsögn (rauðletraðri): „Bók þessi heitir Edda. Hana hefur saman setta Snorri Sturlu sonur, eftir þeim hætti, sem hér er skipað. Er fyrst frá Ásum og Ými, þar næst Skáldskaparmál og heiti margra hluta, síðast Háttatal, er Snorri hefir ort um Hákon konung og Skúla hertoga.‟

Eðlilegast er að skilja upphaf fyrirsagnarinnar: „Bók þessi heitir Edda‟, á þá leið, að svo hafi höfundur sjálfur nefnt bókina. En vafi leikur á um merkingu nafnsins. Nú á dögum virðast einna flestir hallast að þeirri skýringu Konráðs Gíslasonar, að Edda sé skáldskaparfræði, samstofna við óður […] Eigi að síður er tilgáta sú, sem Björn á Skarðsá bar fram, að Edda sé samstofna bæjarnafninu Odda, bæði skemmtileg og athyglisverð, þó að hér verði ekki farið út í að gizka á það, hvernig sú nafngift gæti verið hugsuð eða til komin.

Því miður er það of sjaldgjæft í íslenzkum fornritum, að kostur sé slíkrar fræðslu um nafn og höfund bókar. Væri því eðlilegt, að Uppsalabók nyti þess og væri metin umfram önnur handrit Eddu. Handritið er líka „heilt‟ í þeim skilningi, að ekkert hefur glatazt úr því, síðan það var skrifað. Af Háttatali eru reyndar ekki nema 56 vísur framan af kvæðinu. En það má sjá af síðustu blaðsíðu, sem er að mestu auð, að meira hefur ekki verið skrifað.

Eigi að síður gerir samanburður Uppsalabókar við önnur handrit Eddu, og þá sérstaklega Konungsbók, torvelt að trúa því, að Snorri Sturluson hafi sett bókina saman „eftir þeim hætti, sem hér er skipað‟. Það lætur nærri, jafnvel þótt ekkert annað Edduhandrit væri til samanburðar og engar hugmyndir um skýrleik Snorra réðu dómi vorum, að samt væri erfitt að trúa honum eða reyndar nokkurum höfundi til þess að skiljast við bók, sem hann væri að setja saman, í því ástandi, sem Edda er í Uppsalabók. Því betur sem texti hennar er athugaður og um hann hugsað, því meiri ráðgáta verður skrifarinn og öll vinnubrögð hans – hvað fyrir honum hefur vakað upphaflega og hvers vegna er eins og hann sé sífellt að sjá sig um hönd og brjóta upp á nýjum tiltækjum í vali og skipun efnisins. En um þetta skal ekki fjölyrt hér. Eina prentun Eddu eftir Uppsalabók er í fárra manna höndum, og lýsing hennar og frekari rökræður um hana yrðu of langt mál. Einstaka fræðimenn, sem hafa reynt að berja í bresti hennar, hafa yfirleitt ekki getað greitt úr þessu máli.  (Mannlýsingar I, Frá Snorra til Hallgríms, Almenna Bókafélagið 1986, bls. 34-35.)

Umsögn

Fyrir aldarfjórðungi átti ég fund með Jóhannesi Nordal um óskyld mál en lét þess getið að ég hefði kynnt mér Uppsalabók á Landsbókasafninu og haft af henni gagn. Ástæða heimsóknar minnar á safnið var að sjá og taka niður STAFRÉTTAN texta yfirskriftar Uppsalabókar, sem er mjög frábrugðinn þeim texta sem almennt er settur fram, sbr. skrif Sigurðar Nordal hér að ofan – textinn og tölugildi hans eru eftirfarandi:

8542 = Bók þessi heitir Edda.

20156 = Hana hevir saman setta Snorri Sturlo son

15735 = eptir þeim hætti, sem hér er skipat.

10539 = Er fyrst frá ásum ok Ymi

18224 = þar næst skalldskap ok heiti margra hluta.

17723 = Síþaz Hatta tal er Snorri hevir ort

 13512 = um Hak Konung ok Skula hertug.

104431

Hér að ofan hef ég „sett saman‟ lykilhugmyndir goðsagna Snorra Sturlusonar og Sturlu Þórðarsonar með svipuðum hætti og Uppsalabók er „saman sett‟. Slíkt vinnulag krefst þekkingar á verkum þeirra og þeim goðsagnastefum sem þar liggja að baki. Rétt samsetning endurspeglast í tölugildum líkt og í Sudoku!

Íslenzk þýðing:

En í betra hluta mínum mun ég lifa áfram og hefja mig ofar stjörnum, nafn mitt mun aldrei verða gleymskunni að bráð. Hvar sem undirokaðar þjóðir lúta valdi Rómaborgar mun nafn mitt vera á vörum manna, og ef mark er takandi á spám skálda, mun ég um allan aldur lifa. (Kristján Árnason íslenzkaði.)

English translation:

And now the measure of my song is done:

The work has reached its end; the book is mine,

None shall unwrite these words: nor angry Jove,

Nor war, nor fire, nor flood,

Nor venomous time that eats our lives away.

Then let that morning come, as come it will,

When this disguise I carry shall be no more,

And all the treacherous years of life undone,

And yet my name shall rise to heavenly music,

The deathless music of the circling stars.

As long as Rome is the Eternal City

These lines shall echo from the lips of men,

As long as poetry speaks truth on earth,

That immortality is mine to wear.
