Jón Gudmundsson the Learned Accounts for Poetic Advice in Blackout


Summary: Jón Gudmundsson the Learned accounts for poetic advice in Myrknætti, anglicized as Blackout, third thriller in the Dark Iceland sextet by Ragnar Jónasson.


Jón lærði Guðmundsson (Romanized Jón [“God is gracious”] laerdi [“learned”] Gudmundsson ["god protection’s son"]) abided with his birth family on Ófeigsfjörður (Romanized Ófeigsfjördur, “long-lived fjord”) in Strandasýsla (“stranding district”) [ex-]county of the Vestfirðir (Romanized Vestfirdir, “Westfjords”) region. He then abided with wife Sigríði Þorleifsdóttur (Romanized Sigrídi [“victory beloved” or “victory beautiful”] Thorleifsdóttur [“thunder descendant’s, heir’s, legacy’s daughter]”) at Ós (“estuary, river mouth”) in that same region's Steingrímsfjörður (Romanized Steingrímsfjördur, “Steingrímur’s fjord”) until associating with ghosts, whalers and witches assured his residence in Denmark and then in north-central Iceland; Aug. 23, 2004, image of village of Hólmavík on Steingrímsfjördur, taken from Kálfanesborgir hill, with Selströnd, (“Seal coast”) shore (center left), Galmaströnd coastline (center right) and, distantly, Vatnsnes peninsula on Húnaflói gulf (upper left-center): Sigurður Atlason (Sigatlas), CC BY 2.5 Generic, via Wikimedia Commons

Jón Gudmundsson the Learned accounts for poetic advice in Myrknætti, anglicized as Blackout, third thriller about Siglufjörður (Romanized Siglufjördur) Detective Inspector Ari Thór Arason in the Dark Iceland sextet by Ragnar Jónasson.
The self-educated artist, naturalist and poet (1574-1658) bears as his full-name moniker Jón lærði Guðmundsson (Romanized Jón [“God is gracious”] laerdi [“learned”] Gudmundsson ["god protection’s son"]). Author Ragnar Jónasson commences his third contribution, literally christened Dark Night in English, with 33 words clustered within eight lines from Fjölmóður (Romanized Fjölmódur, “much courage”). The 42-syllable poem defers to a personal masculine first name whose definition deals with dignified dauntlessness and to a dreadful darkness whose demise demands the divine.
The excerpted poem expresses experiences that encourage Jón Gudmundsson the Learned to embrace his conscience against the execution of 31 Basque whaling expeditioners during autumn 1615.

Jón Gudmundsson the Learned favored Ófeigsfjörður (Romanized Ófeigsfjördur, “long-lived fjord”), now in Strandasýsla (“stranding district”) [ex-]county, Vestfirðir (Romanized Vestfirdir, “Westfjords”) region, Norðvesturkjördæmi (Romanized Nordvesturkjördaemi, “Northwest Constituency”).
The self-educated carpenter, dentist, doctor and historian likewise gauged as home grounds Ós (“estuary, river mouth”) in present-day Steingrímsfjörður (Romanized Steingrímsfjördur, “Steingrímur’s fjord”), Vestfirdir, Nordvesturkjördaemi constituency. Northwest Iceland housed Jón and, as his wife from 1600 onward, Sigríði Þorleifsdóttur (Romanized Sigrídi [“victory beloved” or “victory beautiful”] Thorleifsdóttur [“thunder descendant’s, heir’s, legacy’s daughter]”). Jón and Sigrídi of Húsavík (“house bay”) in Steingrímsfjördur inhabited a farm included in Stóra-Fjarðarhorni (Romanized Stóra-Fjardarhorni, “big-fjord [of] horns”) in Kollafirði (Romanized Kollafirdi, “sheep fjord”).
Jón lærði Guðmundsson judged, in lines not joining poetic advice from the same Jón Gudmundsson poem to Blackout, anglicized from Myrknætti, a Svalbarðsætt (Romanized Svalbardsaett) relative.

Fjandafæla (“highland cudweed [Gnaphalium norvegicum]”) and Snjáfjallavísir (“snow mountain verses”) knowing witchcraft in 1611-1612 and bailiff Ari Magnússon kindled two namesake poems and one historical poem.
Thirteen of 83 Basque whaling expeditioners landing ashore Sep. 21, 1615, after the stormy waters of Westfjords’ Reykjarfjörður (Romanized Reykjarfjördur, “smoky fjord”) lacerated their three ships. Sönn frásaga af spanska manna skipbrotum of slagi (“The True Story of the Spaniards Who Were Shipwrecked and Slain”) mourned the Basque whalers marooned in Westfjords. Basque whalers near Patreksfjörður (Romanized Patreksfjördur, “patrician fjord”), not those on Æðey (“elder island”) and Dýrafjörður (Romanized Dýrafjördur, “animal fjord”), numbered among foreign-sailing shipmen spring 1616.
Perhaps Westfjords offered Jón Lærði Guðmundsson no occupancy or occupational options once he overlooked poetic advice as Jón Gudmundsson the Learned in Blackout, anglicized from Myrknætti.

His Um ættir og slekti (“Of Clans and Families”) of 1640 places Jón, like Ari (“eagle) Magnússon (“great [one’s] son), among powerful Svalbardsaett (“cold-shore settlement”) clansmen.
Ögur (“carp-fish”) in Westfjords’ Ísafjarðardjup (The Deep, “ice-fjord depth”) quartered Ari (1571-Oct. 11, 1652) and wife Kristín (“Christ-bearing”) Guðbrandsdóttir (Romanized Gudbrandsdóttir [“god-torch’s daughter”], 1574-Oct. 1, 1652). Reprimands regarding ghosts, whalers and witches removed Jón to Kaupmannahöfn (Copenhagen, “merchants’ harbor”), then to Hjaltastaðir (Romanized Hjaltastadir, “sword-hilt place”) in north-central Iceland’s Skagafjörður (“peninsula fjord”). Their son, Guðmundur (Romanized Gudmundur, “god protection”) Jónsson, as Hjaltastadir church priest, sheltered Jón and Sigrídi there, where perhaps church soil similarly sheltered their subsequent remains.
The poetic advice of Jón Lærði Guðmundsson turns up in the Jón Gudmundsson the Learned poem that triggered Blackout, anglicized from Myrknætti, and its 400th-anniversary tribute.

Their son, Guðmundur (Romanized Gudmundur, “god protection”) Jónsson, as Hjaltastadir church priest, accepted as housemates Jón Gudmundsson the Learned (1574-1658) and Sigríði Þorleifsdóttur (Romanized Sigrídi [“victory beloved” or “victory beautiful”] Thorleifsdóttur [“thunder descendant’s, heir’s, legacy’s daughter]”) in Hjaltastaðir (Romanized Hjaltastadir, “sword-hilt place”) in north-central Iceland’s Skagafjörður (“peninsula fjord”). Hjaltastadir allowed the trio aesthetic views of the mouth of the much-admired Héraðsvötn (Romanized Héradsvötn, "district waters"); 09.06.2004 image of view of Skagafjörður peninsula's Skagafjörður valley toward Skagafjörður fjord: Christian Bickel (Fingalo), CC BY SA 2.0 Germany, via Wikimedia Commons
