Northvegr - Rydberg's Teutonic Mythology What Gylfaginning tells of Narvi is that he was of giant birth, and the first one who inhabited Jotunheim (Nörvi eða Narfi hét jötunn, er byggði fyrst Jötunheima - Gylfaginning 10). As the father of the lower-world dis, Nott, Narvi himself belongs to that group of powers, with which the mythology peopled the lower world. The statements in this regard demand investigation, and, as I think, this will furnish another instructive contribution to the chapter on the confusion of the mythic traditions, and on the part that the Younger Edda plays in this respect. www.northvegr.org /lore/rydberg/085.php   (2876 words)
