Hug (folklore) : ウィキペディア英語版
Hug (folklore)
In Scandinavian mythology, the hug refers to an individual's mental life, in some contrast to the soul, a term which carries more spiritual connotations. "''Hug''" is the Norwegian term; the Danish term is ''hu'', the Swedish ''håg''; Scandinavian languages have a word for soul that is cognate with the English.
The ''hug'' is no simple concept and shows great variation, with different accounts and characteristics given in the literature from medieval literature to more recent folklore. It is central to the conception of magic, and can influence animate and inanimate objects. The ''hug'' manifests itself externally in a variety of possible forms;〔Kvideland and Sehmsdorf 41.〕 that of witches, for instance, sometimes took the shape of a cat.〔Alver 120.〕
