The writing about the song "Herr Mannelig"

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Do you ever look at stories, what are told about journeyman? Some of them are very attractive and impressive. And almost in every book or adventure movies, the main character is some kind of journeyman, who have very good experience about those situations, what happens in those books or films. That kind of stories are not new, and they are told by journeymen or somebody, who have met those journeymen. In this text I don't actually write about the song "Herr Mannelig", but I would use the video about this song as an innovator about this text.


One of the oldest songs of Sweden is "Herr Mannelig", what is the folk tradition. In this film, what opens from the link below the text, this main character is made for moving. The film or music video is made by some Swedish band called "Garmarna".  The writer of that song is not mentioned, but it is the story about the man, who denied to get married to the witch, who lived on some mountain. The story is very popular, and there are many presentations about this quite good Viking-era song.


The idea of this song or music video is that man tells some stories, what are very suspicious. A man or woman tells stories, about journeys and storms what the teller have been faced during the life, and of course, this person tells about the monster, who lived under the falls of somewhere in northern Norway, and the stories are fascinating and impressive. There is one very strange thing about the main character. He doesn't do anything in the boat, is he some kind of passenger, in this music video. They are stories about journeys to edge of the world, and in the first many people sees nothing to say about them, but then we must realize that there is one big question about the stories, what the journeyman tells, and that is, that this journeyman was always alone in those situations.



There is nobody, who can proof those worlds about great adventures of this Mannelig. Every person who were with him in those ships were somewhere else, when this stories have been told. In the video, the prime male character has the very good equipment, and here I must ask if he actually meant to introduce as a journeyman? The equipment of this character is too perfect for use of Viking tradesman. They look like soldiers equipment, and that might meant for the joke. But the film is very good support for this writing because my Swedish is not very good. And as you see the writing is my hobby, and that's why I'm writing this text.

The hydrogen-burning supernovas are interesting models.

If the collapsing nebula is heavy enough, it can form a black hole straight from the nebula. But if the nebula's gravity is too heavy to  form  the blue giant or too  small  it can collapse  straight  into a black hole . If  the forming star is a little bit larger than the blue supergiants. It can explode immediately when the fusion starts.    The theory of hydrogen-burning supernovas consists  model  of the giant stars that explode immediately after their fusion starts. When the interstellar nebula  falls  it can form

The ancient galaxy mirrors the Milky Way.

"This image shows the galaxy REBELS-25 as seen by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), overlaid on an infrared image of other stars and galaxies. The infrared image was taken by ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). In a recent study, researchers found evidence that REBELS-25 is a strongly rotating disc galaxy existing only 700 million years after the Big Bang. This makes it the most distant and earliest known Milky Way-like galaxy found to date. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO)/L. Rowland et al./ESO/J. Dunlop et al.

And the light that comes from that galaxy named REBELS-25 comes from the Universe that is only 700 million years old. The distance to that galaxy is enormous about 236 billion light years. And that means it's a very dista

Transcendence, or the ability to transcendent thinking may grow in teen's brains.

   "New research has discovered that transcendent thinking, which involves analyzing the broader implications of situations, can foster brain growth in adolescents. This form of thinking enhances brain network coordination, impacting developmental milestones and future life satisfaction. The study emphasizes the need for education that encourages deep, reflective thought, underscoring the critical role of adolescents in their own brain development". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) "Scientists at  USC Rossier School of Education’s Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education (CANDLE) have discovered that adolescents who grapple with the bigger meaning of social situations experience greater brain growth, which predicts stronger identity development and life satisfaction years later".
