This paper (presented in Icelandic) will be largely based on interviews which were taken in 2014 with the last two allsherjagoðar (high priests) of the Ásatrúarfélag, Jörmundur Ingi Hansen, and Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson, about the nature, background and performance aspects of the rituals and prayers that have been designed for the society’s annual rituals, for weddings and funerals, and not least as part of recent protests against large building projects in Iceland which are likely to have a long-term influence on the environment.

In addition to the interviews, I will be making use of the MA research of Eggert Sólberg Jónsson, and other scholars who have investigated the society. |
