paperback. Condizione: As New. Second edition with a new introduction - Brossura editoriale di 172 pagine. Copia in condizioni pari al nuovo / As new -- Scholars of Old Icelandic generally agree that Icelandic literature was influenced by the Gaelic world where oral literature was highly developed and written prose sagas were pr…oduced in the vernacular. Ireland and Iceland are the only countries in NW Europe where sagas of this kind were written down. The problem arises however when the importance of the influence on Icelandic culture has to be assessed. In this book, the author looks at the possible channels by which Gaelic influence could have reached Iceland and looks at the nature of the numerous parallels in different genres of Old Icelandic literature with Gaelic literature, especially Old Irish. The intention is twofold: first, to provide a comprehensive bibliography of the subject, and second, to assess what these parallels can tell us about the importance of Gaelic influence for Icelandic literary tradition. This is the 2nd revised edition, with a new preface, and new general introduction. Book.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The Eddas and Sagas of medieval Iceland are remarkable literary achievements, reflecting both the imaginative power and the memory practices of the culture that produced them. Written in various genres and narrative styles, these texts combine learned ideas of their time with traditional storytel…ling methods. They provide a vivid, often realistic depiction of the previous two to three centuries, gradually moving into the legendary and mythological as stories reach further back in time or into more distant realms. Understanding these texts as rooted in traditional oral memory-alongside the influences of medieval book culture-is essential to fully appreciating their form, purpose, and significance. This book explores how Icelandic society remembered its past and environment, and how those memory practices shaped the literary culture. It examines what is unique about this literature, how the introduction of book culture transformed storytelling, and how written texts both preserved tradition and created new avenues for creativity and social prestige. The origins of Icelandic literary culture are traced to Norway, Ireland, and the British Isles, showing how intercultural exchange enriched narrative forms and themes. Key texts, including V luspá and Njáls saga, are analyzed to reveal how authors drew on both oral tradition and learned knowledge. The corpus of the Sagas of Icelanders demonstrates how oral memory shaped storytelling, mediating ideas about the natural world, history, and social norms. Snorri Sturluson's Edda is highlighted as a sophisticated example of how writing was used to teach traditional mythology, using the sky as a mnemonic device for young poets learning the foundations of professional court poetry. The book also examines the individuals who actively transformed oral tradition into literary culture. Snorri Sturluson and his nephew Sturla Þórðarson used the art of writing to elevate their social status while reshaping how their contemporaries-and later generations-understood the past. Their work laid the foundation for a new literary genre: the Sagas of Icelanders. Through their innovations, oral tradition was preserved, transformed, and made accessible to an increasingly literate audience, blending memory, history, and myth in unprecedented ways. By combining literary analysis, historical context, and theories of memory, this book offers a fresh understanding of Icelandic medieval literature. It presents the Eddas and Sagas not merely as texts to be studied for their stories or history, but as dynamic cultural artifacts that illuminate the transition from oral to written culture, the negotiation of social power, and the creativity of individual authors working within and beyond their tradition. For scholars and general readers alike, it provides new insights into how medieval Icelanders remembered, narrated, and imagined their world.

paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category tha…t encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
