Publisher Description:
Written by Iceland's most versatile literary genius, Snorri Sturluson's "Prose Edda" is a work without predecessor or parallel. Snorri was born in western Iceland in 1179, the son of a great chieftan, and early in his career won a reputation at home and in Norway for his poetic talents. Later he traveled to Norway and wrote the lives of the kinds: the Helmskringla Saga, Egil's Saga, and St. Olaf's Saga, a work unsurpassed in Icelandice prose.
