- World_Mill abstract "The World Mill (also "heavenly mill", "cosmic mill" and variants) is a mytheme suggested as recurring in Indo-European and other mythologies. It involves the analogy of the cosmos or firmament and a rotating millstone.The mytheme was extensively explored in Viktor Rydberg's 1886 Investigations into Germanic Mythology. Donald Mackenzie described the World Mill’s symbolic relationship to the Swastika, and developed supposed analogs in Chinese, Egyptian, Babylonian, and AmerInd folklore.Clive Tolley (1995) examined the significance of the mytheme in Indo-European and Finnish mythology. Tolley found that "the image of a cosmic mill, ambivalently churning out well-being or disaster, may be recognized in certain fragmentary myths", adding additional Indo-European and Finnish analogs of the mill to the material previously considered by Rydberg and others. Tolley comes to the conclusion that "the cosmic mill was not, in extant Norse sources, a widely developed mythologem. Nonetheless, the myth of Mundilfæri connects the turning of the cosmos via a 'mill-handle' with the regulation of seasons, and the myth of Bergelmir suggests the concept of a creative milling of a giant's body, associated in some way with the sea,"Richard M. Dorson surveyed the views of 19th-century writers on the World Mill in his 1968 historical review, Peasant Customs and Savage Myths: Selections from the British Folklorists, and the mytheme is discussed in the Kommentar zu den Liedern der Edda, in regard to the Eddic poem, Grottasöngr.".
