Great Stories from History and Mythology

on 2LO London

View in Radio Times

told by Miss RHODA POWER:
'Tales from the North—I, Why the Sea is Salt. The Story of King Frodi's Wonderful Queen Stories'
HITHERTO, the Great Stories told in this series have been drawn from classical Greek mythology and from the Arthurian legend, the oldest myth of our own land. This season Miss Rhoda Power will tell stories from a less-known body of legend—that of the Norse lands, which had a Pantheon and a lore of their own, the characters of which correspond fairly closely to the gods of ancient Greece, but the spirit of which is totally different, and strangely unfamiliar to most of us.
