In Norse mythology, Breiðablik〔The name can be Anglicized as Breidablik, Breithablik or Breidhablik.〕 (''Broad-gleaming'') is the home of Baldr. It is briefly described in Snorri Sturluson's ''Gylfaginning'' as one of the halls of Asgard: :"Then there is also in that place the abode called Breidablik, and there is not in heaven a fairer dwelling."〔''Gylfaginning'' XVII, Brodeur's translation.〕 Later in the work, when Snorri describes Baldr, he gives a longer description, citing ''Grímnismál'', though he does not name the poem: :"He dwells in the place called Breidablik, which is in heaven; in that place may nothing unclean be, even as is said here: ::Breidablik 't is called, | where Baldr has :::A hall made for himself: ::In that land | where I know lie :::Fewest baneful runes."〔''Gylfaginning'' XXII, Brodeur's translation. The strophe is ''Grímnismál'' 12.〕 Breiðablik is not otherwise mentioned in the Eddic sources. ==See also== *Breiðablik UBK, an Icelandic sports club. *Breidablik Peak, a mountain named after Breidablik. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Breidablik」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
