DESCRIPTION - The POETIC or ELDER EDDA is a compilation made about A.D. 1200 of earlier Icelandic poems on cosmology, mythology, and the stories of Norse heroes. Together with the PROSE or YOUNGER EDDA, it is the chief source of our knowledge of Scandinavian mythology. This new translation - the result of a collaboration between a distinguished scholar and a major poet who has always felt a deep instinctive sympathy for the great masterpieces of Northern Europe-succeeds superbly in conveying the power, sharpness, and precision of the original. It is prefaced with a most helpful introduction by Professor Peter H. Salus and Paul B. Taylor. inventory #23849 A Few Small Marking Pen Marks At Top Of Front Free Endpaper, Otherwise Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket With Some Tears.
