An immediate source for the Heimskringla of Snorri Sturluson, it is a central text in the Old Norse genre of Kings' sagas. It includes extensive citation of skaldic verses, some of them preserved nowhere else. This translation preserves many of the metrical features of this complex verse form, which are explained in the commentary along with aspects of historical and cultural interest arising from the text. The introduction places the text within the Kings' saga tradition and examines the particular concerns of its anonymous author. The volume will be of use to historians and those interested in Old Norse literary history.Northern world ;v. 7.NorwayHistoryTo 1030NorwayHistory1030-1397839/.63Finlay Alison1618682MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817568403321Fargrskinna, a catalogue of the Kings of Norway4188395UNINA
