Zusammenfassung: | Troll magic -- The forest troll -- On the way to a feast at the troll castle -- The fossegrim -- The dragon -- Supernatural creatures I -- Supernatural creatures II -- The nisse -- The hulder -- The mermaid -- The witch -- On Mount Kolsaas -- A sea troll -- The nøkk -- The draug -- The sea serpent -- The troll bird -- A jutul battle -- The dying mountain troll "In this book, first published as Troldskab in 1892, Theodor Kittelsen spins tales of wonder around creatures rumored to haunt the fields, forests, and waterfalls of Norway. Striding, gamboling, and slithering across these pages are witches and gnomes and sea monsters, fiery dragons waking from their stiff-winged slumber, mermaids rising from the deep, and sly shapeshifting nøkk. But first and foremost are the trolls, hapless, horrible, or just plain silly, working their spells and making their mischief to the terror and delight of the presumably human reader"-- |
