Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The gods of the North live again in one of the most important works of mythology ever written.Known as Snorre's Edda, The Prose Edda, this remarkable medieval work preserves the stories, beliefs, and poetic traditions of the ancient Norse world. Compiled in thirteenth-century Iceland by Snorri Sturluson, it remains one of the primary sources for our knowledge of Norse mythology and the legendary gods of Scandinavia.Within its pages are the tales of Odin, Thor, Loki, Baldr, Freyja, Heimdall, and the many other figures who populate the rich mythology of the North. The creation of the cosmos, the adventures of the gods, the origins of the giants, and the coming of Ragnaroek-the doom of gods and world alike-are recounted in vivid detail. Through these stories, readers encounter a universe shaped by fate, heroism, wisdom, conflict, and sacrifice.Beyond its mythological narratives, the work also serves as a guide to the art of Old Norse poetry, preserving the imagery, symbolism, and literary techniques used by the skalds of medieval Scandinavia. As both a treasury of myth and a handbook of poetic tradition, the Edda offers an unparalleled window into the imagination and culture of the Viking Age.Essential for anyone interested in mythology, folklore, medieval literature, or the history of Northern Europe, Snorre's Edda remains one of the foundational texts of Western mythological tradition and a timeless record of the legendary world of the Norse gods.
