The Genesis of a Saga Narrative: Verse and Prose in Kormaks Saga
ISBN: 9780198117834 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The origins of many of the Icelandic sagas have long been the subject of critical speculation and controversy. This book demonstrates that an investigation of the relationship between verse and prose in saga narrative can be used to reconstruct how the sagas were composed. O'Donoghue provides a detailed analysis of Kormaks saga, revealing that far from being a seamless narrative of either pre-Christian oral tradition or later medieval fiction, the work is in fact a patchwork of different kinds of literary materials.

Skaldic Verse and the Poetics of Saga Narrative
ISBN: 9780199267323 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Skaldic Verse and the Poetics of Saga Narrative is a study of the varying relationships between verse and prose in a series of Old Norse-Icelandic saga narratives. It shows how the interplay of skaldic verse, with its metrical intricacy and cryptic diction, and saga prose, with its habitual spare clarity, can be used to achieve a wide variety of sophisticated stylistic and psychological effects. In sagas, there is a fundamental distinction between verses which are ostensibly quoted to corroborate what is stated in the narrative, and verses which are presented as the speech of characters in...

English Poetry and Old Norse Myth: A History
ISBN: 9780199562183 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Especial care is taken to determine the precise form in which these poets encountered the mythic material, so that the book traces a parallel history of the gradual dissemination of Old Norse mythic texts.
Very many major poets were inspired by Old Norse myth. Some, for instance the Anglo-Saxon poet of Beowulf, or much later,... English Poetry and Old Norse Myth: A History traces the influence of Old Norse myth -- stories and poems about the familiar gods and goddesses of the ...
