Book Synopsis The Elder Edda by : Andy Orchard

Download or read book The Elder Edda written by Andy Orchard and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2011-04-07 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compiled by an unknown scribe in Iceland around 1270, and based on sources dating back centuries earlier, these mythological and heroic poems tell of gods and mortals from an ancient era: the giant-slaying Thor, the doomed Völsung family, the Hel-ride of Brynhild and the cruelty of Atli the Hun. Eclectic, incomplete and fragmented, these verses nevertheless retain their stark beauty and their power to enthrall, opening a window on to the thoughts, beliefs and hopes of the Vikings and their world.
