− | ::::::::::This book paints a portrait of the Icelandic chieftain and historian Snorri Sturlasson and his lineage. His source is the Sturlungasaga. The Norwegian literary critic Philip Houm wrote the following about the book: »The old Sturlungasaga... is a chaos one can easily get lost in. Jón Helgason has called it unreadable, so chaotic and intricate it is. - Fredrik Paasche sets out to bring order to chaos. And he succeeded. He has, as Francis Bull puts it, 'simplified and condensed, organized and reorganized, added new material from other sources, and removed the insignificant and irrelevant, so that both individuals and the whole have come to life.' Therefore, Paasche's book was hailed as an achievement and a masterpiece, created by someone who was both a scholar and an artist.« | + | ::::::::::This book paints a portrait of the Icelandic chieftain and historian Snorri Sturlasson and his lineage.

HEIMSKRINGLA
HEIMSKRINGLA is the largest collection of Old Norse and Nordic source texts on the internet – currently some 7300 titles. HEIMSKRINGLA primarily consists of eddic texts, sagas, and scaldic poetry, secondarily of background material and sources related to Sami culture. HEIMSKRINGLA is based on the belief that these texts – as part of our common cultural heritage – should be freely available to everyone.
