The Poetic Edda: The Legends of the Viking Age - Paperback
Description
by Quinton Elsken (Author), Dakota McCoy (Editor), Konley Runyon (Artist)
Composed between 800-1200AD, the poems of the Poetic Edda are some of the only remaining witnesses to the mythology and beliefs of the Vikings. Since the 18th century, scholars have debated how best to render these poems in English, with tensions long simmering between the preservation of poetic form and the use of more direct language. This edition seeks a balance between the two, presenting the poems in traditional English verse while utilizing language intelligible to the modern reader.
