Bøger af Snorri Sturluson

Snorris Edda er uden tvivl et af de kendteste værker fra den nordiske middelalder. Det er forfattet i 1200-tallet af den islandske stormand Snorri Sturluson, der ville indsamle og gengive myterne i den nordiske mytologi, som på det tidspunkt var trængt bagud af kristendommen. Det er først og fremmest fra Snorris Edda, at danskerne kender disse myter: Historien om Balders død, Thors fisketur efter Midgårdsormen blandt mange, mange andre, Vølvens Spådom samt ikke mindst de nordiske skabelsesberetninger.Disse dele af Eddaen har tidligere været oversat og gendigtet flere gange, senest af Thøger Larsen i 1928. Velkendt er også Villy Sørensens gendigtning "Ragnarok" fra 1982. Men Eddaen indeholder mere. Snorri ville også - måske især - fortælle om den rige verstradition, disse historier var blevet overleveret i.Derfor tilegnede Snorri en stor del af Eddaen en gennemgang af de utrolig mangfoldige og intrikate former, den oldislandske poesi kunne antage. Snorris gennemgang giver et enestående indblik i en ældgammel, men yderst sofistikeret fortællekultur, som ikke lader Homer noget efter.Ikke desto mindre har denne del af Eddaen aldrig været oversat til dansk før. Det er derfor intet mindre end en begivenhed, at det nu sker.

The Prose Edda is the most renowned of all works of Scandinavian literature and our most extensive source for Norse mythology. Written in Iceland a century after the close of the Viking Age, it tells ancient stories of the Norse creation epic and recounts the battles that follow as gods, giants, dwarves and elves struggle for survival. It also preserves the oral memory of heroes, warrior kings and queens. In clear prose interspersed with powerful verse, the Edda provides unparalleled insight into the gods' tragic realization that the future holds one final cataclysmic battle, Ragnarok, when the world will be destroyed. These tales from the pagan era have proved to be among the most influential of all myths and legends, inspiring modern works as diverse as Wagner's Ring Cycle and Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings.

The only English translation to include the complete work - a must-have for all students of early Norse literature.

The Prose Edda, also known as the Younger Edda, Snorri's Edda, and simply Edda, was written in Old Norse during the thirteenth century in Iceland. Snorri Sturluson, a distinguished poet, legislator, and frequent visitor to Norway's royal court, determined in 1220 to assemble Norse mythology's narratives and poetic practises before they faded under the influence of Christianity and European poem forms. The Prose Edda is the result, a rare peek into early Norse mythology.
