pp.xxii, 266 pages, a very good plus hardback, publisher's original maroon cloth binding with gilt lettering to the spine and front cover. NOT FROM A LIBRARY and completely clean from any markings, just the former owner's name/date on the ffep. A complete English translation of the Prose Edda, the foundational medieval Icelandic handbook of Norse mythology and skaldic poetics, by Snorri Sturluson. Translated from the Icelandic with an introduction by Arthur Gilchrist Brodeur, this edition was first published in 1916 and quickly became the standard English-language version for scholars and general readers. Issued here as part of the Scandinavian Classics series of the American-Scandinavian Foundation, this sixth printing reflects the continued importance and long-term demand for Brodeurâs authoritative translation.
