The Lindworm with Martin Shaw

- In this short film, mythologist, author, and storyteller Martin Shaw tells the old Norwegian story of “The Lindworm,” a mythical creature that is part human and part snake. This ancient tale poses a timely question: what have we exiled that returns to us in fury? This telling of “The Lindworm” reminds us of the enduring wisdom of this timeless myth and of our often fraught and fearful relationship with the wild.

I love this it’s my favourite fairy tale
Prince Lindworm may be nightmare fuel for some but he’ll always be a prince to me ❤️💞
That was beautiful. Thank you Martin. I saw you open for a Glen Hansard gig last night. Your stories bring tears to me. Thank you.
Campbell may have made known the hero's journey but ah... here is the hidden mystery of the heroine's.
Lovely story. I like the tone of the teller's voice very much. It makes me calm.
It is funny because in out her versions she eats two onions, one with the skin and one without it. The onion with skin is obviously the serpent
In another version a UA-camr animated The different flowers represent different genders White was male, red was female. The queen picked white but it was so delicious she ate the red as well, The story continues the same with only a few difference near the end, after the clothes she throws the milk on the lindworm, she uses a wip on him, then hugs him, and he comes out a pale prince with white hair.
Interesting how everyone knows a different version of the same story.
Beautiful story,beautiful story teller. Thanks for posting. I needed it today.
This original folklore inspired my design of a 7’ arm puppet lindworm. Thank you Martin Shaw. Very very nice.
But after giving birth, how ugly as it seems, the snake was part of the woman, fed and nurtured by her body. Sad but beautiful story!
Beautifully told story, better than another version I read. Thank you!
This tale reminds me of Hans My Hedgehog
The Lindworm: I'm a serpent mum and dad. I'm meant to be slain.
King and Queen: Not to us.
Jung would have gone nuts with this one. Wonder if it appears in his work? Like a dream filled with interacting archetypes which holds answers to everything. Bravo
needs more evil stepmother.
Wow. That was beautiful . And so well known. Acknowledging the educated heart and the shedding of layers within another and oneself.
Just beautiful ❤❤❤ thankyou ⚘️
Beauty and the Beast motifs are fascinating. Dr. Shaw is the best!
Thank you ❤🎉 Perfect synchronicity to hear this now
What is the music?!
What about the younger brother?
Astonishing tale! Love it!
Wow, great, I've never heard this before. Is "Lindworm" a Norse word ? Lime trees are also called Linden and this name seems to have the same origin. During the European Bronze Ages, the bark of Linden trees was used for making fibre for ropes and other cordage use. The original meaning of 'lind' was apparently 'flexible' (perhaps a flexible line or fibre, I think), and this is the origin of similar words like liana, lithe, lenient and linen. So a Lindworm would be a long, flexible worm. Another word for snake or serpent then.
Great story teller
Amazingly beautiful told story! 💕
Beautiful story spoken with a lovely lilt. Thank you ❤
Lovely story telling... lovely story!
love him. finally i found ir
It's fascinating since the Chinese dragon looks like a lindworm but it's not much of a snake but rather came from being a carp until it got bigger and stronger that it reached the heavens by swimming upstream. But damn, what a beautiful archetype the lindworm is, still though the archetypal details are hard to understand but it's scintillating.
Wow if this is the original story then I love this one better! Thank you so much for telling it, it was beautiful!
