Thank you

Thank you for re-creating this page. Unfortunately it was AfD'd when I first created it. I was new to Wikipedia, and was one of the first pages I tried creating. His work is very important to 20th century academic studies on Norse/North Germanic literature, when the topic was being highly bastardized by political psuedo-history.
