Description:
-Translated into English by Henry Adams Bellows.
A collection of poems from Old Norse oral tradition, the Poetic Edda, along with the Prose Edda, is the most important work of Old Norse Literature. As with epics in other cultures, the poems contained in the Edda were originally passed down between poets and singers, so that original authorship is unknown.
In addition to its literary significance to historical Norse culture, the Poetic Edda has influenced later authors and poets, from Karin Boye to Ezra Pound to J.R.R Tolkien.
