Gandalf (mythology) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gandalf (mythology) Gandalf is a Dvergr (Norse dwarf) in Norse mythology, appearing in the so-called 'Tally of the Dwarves' within the poem Völuspá from the Poetic Edda,〔Tom Shippey, ''J. R. R. Tolkien'' (2001) p. 15〕 as well as in the Prose Edda. The name derives from the Old Norse words ''gandr'' (magic staff) and ''álfr'' (elf), thus a protective spirit who wields a magical wand.〔T. A. Shippey, ''The Road to Middle-Earth'' (1992) p. 88〕 The name was also used for a Norse king in the ''Heimskringla''.〔(''Harald Fairhair's saga'' in ''Heimskringla'' )〕 In his fictional writings, J. R. R. Tolkien eventually named his wizard Gandalf after the Dvergr,〔T. A. Shippey, ''The Road to Middle-Earth'' (1992) p. 88〕 but initially used the name for the head of the dwarf party (ultimately to be called Thorin Oakenshield).〔J. D. Rateliff, ''Mr Baggins Pt I'' (2007) p. 15〕 ==See also==
