thoughts on Germanic and Indo-European philology, poetry, fairy & fantasy, literature, history, culture, veering at times into philosophy, religion (tactfully), political theory (not "politics"), and the nature of communication.

Bitter Scroll Podcast
Previously, I tried out Blogger's feature for uploading audio files, which involves recording into a phone. It was ok. But it wasn't enough. My wish for more sound files of Old Germanic languages on the web has led me to experiment with the world of podcasting. I can't say I really know what I'm doing, but I'm learning. Anyway, as a supplement to this blog, I've set up The Bitter Scroll Podcast. The first podcast seeems to be working well enough, so perhaps this will be a good way to offer a way for people to hear what the various languages sound like. Expect mostly Old English at first; there are some passages in Beowulf that I think sound really great when read aloud. If anyone has any requests, I'm open as well. (E.g., I'll probably do the Our Father in Gothic for the guys over at Holy Whapping.)
