Hilda Ellis Davidson illustrates how pagan beliefs have been represented and misinterpreted by the Christian tradition, and throws light on the nature of pre-Christian beliefs and how they have been preserved. The Lost Beliefs of Northern Europe stresses both the possibilities and the difficulties of investigating the lost religious beliefs of Northern Europe. 606 $aCelts$xReligion 606 $aGermanic peoples$xReligion 606 $aMythology, Norse 607 $aEurope, Northern$xReligion 607 $aEurope, Northern$xAntiquities 615 0$aCelts$xReligion. 615 0$aGermanic peoples$xReligion. 615 0$aMythology, Norse. 676 $a291/.0936 700 $aDavidson$b H.
