Balder The Beautiful: Aslan's Norse Ancestor In The Chronicles Of Narnia, Salwa Khoddam Oct 1999

Balder The Beautiful: Aslan's Norse Ancestor In The Chronicles Of Narnia, Salwa Khoddam

This is supported by Lewis’s known love for northern myths and his particular reaction to the lines about Balder from Longfellow’s “Tegnér’s Drapa.”
