  Northvegr - NESP Reviews
The author, Danish scholar Axel Olrik, wrote this gem of a book in 1927 and it was translated into English by the American Scandinavian Foundation in 1930.
Olrik, on the other hand, takes those sources and is able to construct an extremely accurate picture of the spiritual and ethical life of Northern European Heathens.
Contrarary to the popular opinion of that the ethics and religion of the North were based on the “Vikings,” Olrik shows that the culture, ethics and religion of the North came from the land owning freemen.

 Folklore and Philology Revisited:
I have tried to respond to the set of both these currents, though I willingly admit that my heart is captured more by the study of traditions from olden times, particularly from the Middle Ages, and by the approach which interweaves historical fact, philological interpretation and textual criticism.

(19)In the context of Sámi culture, Strömbäck relies on the work of Johan Fritzner, Axel Olrik, Just Qvigstad and others philologically-oriented writers, for example, but fails to incorporate the works of Johan Olafsson Turi, Gustaf Düben, or Paavo Ravila, whose testimony might have shaped his thinking somewhat differently.
