cartoon of Jack Frost as a United States major-general during the
American Civil War]]
Jack Frost is an elfish creature who personifies crisp, cold, winter
weather; a variant of Father Winter (AKA Old Man Winter). He is a figure
some believe to have originated in Viking folklore.
He is said to leave frosty crystal patterns on windows on cold mornings.
Those who believe in Viking folklore roots state that the English derived
the name Jack Frost from the Norse character names, Jokul ("icicle") and
Frosti ("frost"). Another theory is that he is a much more recent import
into Anglo-Saxon culture from a Russian fairy tale (see Morozko). In the
Finnish epos Kalevala Canto number 30, translated from Finnish into
English by Keith Bosley, Jack Frost is the son of Blast, "Pakkanen Puhurin
Poika" (see [LINK:
http://www.kaapeli.fi/maailma/kalevala/KOLMASKYMMENES.html] Finnish
Kalevala). Other tales in Russia represent frost
