Olaf, no legends of the sort often associated with saints-especially martyrs-who died before rationalism turned history into-historicism. His praying thus is not the only edifying thing that can be told about him, as we conceive the edifying in modern times, but there are no pious legends attached to St. “God help me!” he cried as he fell, and then continued to pray as his lifeblood flowed from his wounds. His death can be dated with certainty because it took place during a total eclipse of the sun-dramatic circumstances for the men on the scene who did not know the eclipse was coming. It is certain that he died in battle on July 29, 1030. The year of his birth is usually given as 995. Olaf, who was King of Norway at the dawn of the Second Millennium.
Special attention will be paid to the Scandinavian saint whose name is probably best known after that of St. We want with this article to dispel some of the ignorance of Scandinavia that prevails among U.S. Vladimir, Prince of Kievan Rus in what we now know as Ukraine and whose conversion to the Faith presaged the conversion of all Russia, was certainly of Viking stock, certainly a descendent of a long line of Scandinavian trader-warriors who built fortified towns, including Kiev, all along the north-south waterways of Russia from the Baltic to the Black Sea.įurther, the Scandinavian influence has extended all the way over here to America, especially to the American heartland, the Midwest, especially the northern Midwest, where so many descendants of the Vikings settled in the 19th century and early in the 20th. It ignores the very large role that the Scandinavians were playing in Europe one thousand years ago, that their activities as traders, artisans, mariner-explorers and warriors were far from being confined to the Scandinavian lands. Most of us tend to think of the history of the Faith largely as it has been lived in Ireland and in lands that were once part of the Roman Empire, especially ones whose shores are washed by the Mediterranean-Italy, France, Spain.
The vanished world and the one that replaced it are not very well known to most U.S. It would be replaced by another: that of Christian Scandinavia.
Using UnityEngine using System.One thousand years ago, an entire world was coming to an end. Here's the code on the slerping object, for reference (not sure why it won't code-format the headers): So: Is there a way to force the Vector3.Slerp arc to move in a particular direction, or something to modify the Vector3.Slerp with to make it take the 'negative' arc to its destination? I've tried everything I could think of, but I'm stumped. In effect, it takes the wrong way to the right place, rendering the attack unreliable. Unfortunately, though, when the parent object's y-rotation is between about 101.3 and 281.3, the attack arcs the wrong direction - it goes from the origin to the goal by passing behind the player, instead of in front, more or less. The child object is disabled by default, but, when enabled (via clicking, right now), it slerps between an origin and end point this provides pretty much exactly the dynamic feeling I wanted from melee combat, rather than 'they're in Zone X, they get hit, play the animation and deduct HP.' Some background: I have a parent object, which rotates to face an object that moves based on the mouse location, and a child object that represents their attack.
