JWP was founded in 2013 with the Viking Language O l d N o r s e I c e l a n d i c Series providing modern students, teachers, and self-learners with accessible and affordable Old Norse texts. These books and pronunciation albums provide learners with all vocabulary and grammar needed to read passages from original sources right at the start. So also, our bilingual Saga Series. This spirit motivates our entire catalogue, as we develop new series on Viking history, m y t h , archaeology and historical fiction. HIGHLIGHTS THE VIKING LANGUAGE OLD NORSE ICELANDIC SERIES Learning or teaching Old Norse is easy with the Viking Language Old Norse Icelandic Series. From the first pages start reading Old Norse passages from original sources and embark on a journey into Icelandic sagas, Viking legends, runes, Scandinavian myth, and history.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="62b86ebe3d6e6a835982bee5e84e3b58" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":118917707,"asset_id":124655659,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/118917707/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="124655659"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="124655659"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 124655659; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=124655659]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=124655659]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 124655659; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='124655659']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "62b86ebe3d6e6a835982bee5e84e3b58" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=124655659]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":124655659,"title":"Learn Viking history, Scandinavian myths, Old Norse language, and Icelandic sagas.

Mosfell Valley which is found in the Southwest of Iceland was settled during the early days of the landnám. The region was one of the country's cultural centers. The valley's harbor site was mentioned to be in Leiruvogur Bay. Modern constructions make the prospection and exploration of this harbor site nearly impossible. One of the few places that are left untouched is a mound known in oral tradition as Skiphóll (Ship Hill), that could once have been used as landmark for incoming ships. In this paper we present an integrated study comprising a GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) survey, excavation work and coring that was conducted on the Skiphóll. The aims of the study were to date the Skiphóll to show that it existed during the Viking Age by imaging specific volcanic tephra layers and to investigate the interior of the mound to understand its use. GPR was used because it has a suitable spatial resolution and depth penetration when investigating targets of the size of the Skiphóll. Nevertheless, because of the topography of the mound and the demand to image thin tephra layers, efforts have been done to increase the GPR resolution by topography based imaging and to create an integrated interpretation of all data. A reconstruction of the mound's appearance in 1500 CE was possible through a depth comparison of the specific tephra found in cores with the near-surface reflections in GPR. Excavations showed several mound and ditch features dating to between 871 CE and 1226. The GPR data correlates well with these features. Furthermore, the correlation of the GPR reflections with the excavated portions of the mound allows the projection of the archaeological features beyond the excavation area. The nature of the mound and ditches exposed in excavation and a ship-shaped anomaly reconstructed from the GPR slices, makes it appear most likely that the Skiphóll mound had a ritual function beyond just marking the harbor.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="fd48563a2c2f45e711853b7b746a4546" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":47283126,"asset_id":27028987,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/47283126/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="27028987"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="27028987"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 27028987;

The readings are drawn from sagas, runes and eddas. They take the student into the world of Old Norse heroes, gods, and goddesses. There is a separate chapter on the ‘Creation of the World’ and another on ‘The Battle at the World’s End,’ where the gods meet their doom. Other readings and maps focus on Viking Age Iceland, Greenland, and Vínland. A series of chapters tackles eddic and skaldic verse with their ancient stories from the old Scandinavian past. Runic inscriptions and explanations of how to read runes form a major component of the book. Where there are exercises, the answers are given at the end of the chapter. Both Viking Language 1 and 2 are structured as workbooks. Students learns quickly and interactively.

The reader immerses the learner in the legends, folklore, and myths of the Vikings. The readings are drawn from sagas, runes and eddas. They take the student into the world of Old Norse heroes, gods, and goddesses. There is a separate chapter on the ‘Creation of the World’ and another on ‘The Battle at the World’s End,’ where the gods meet their doom. Other readings and maps focus on Viking Age Iceland, Greenland, and Vínland. A series of chapters tackles eddic and skaldic verse with their ancient stories from the old Scandinavian past. Runic inscriptions and explanations of how to read runes form a major component of the book. Where there are exercises, the answers are given at the end of the chapter. Both Viking Language 1 and 2 are structured as workbooks. Students learns quickly and interactively.

It provides a wealth of information about Iceland, where the sagas were written and Old Scandinavian history and mythology were preserved.

It was, in fact, an independent, almost republican Free State, without warlords or kings. Honour was crucial in a world which sounds almost Utopian today. In Jesse Byock’s words, it was like ‘a great village’: a self governing community of settlers, who adapted to Iceland’s harsh climate and landscape, creating their own society. <br />Combining history and anthropology, this remarkable study explores in rich detail all aspects of Viking Age life: feasting, farming and battling with the elements, the power of chieftains and the church, marriage, the role of women and kinship. It shows us how law courts, which favoured compromise over violence, often prevented disputes over land, livestock or insults from becoming ‘blood feud’. In Iceland we can see a prototype democracy in action, which thrived for 300 years until it came under the control of the King of Norway in the 1260s. <br />This was a unique time in history, which has long perplexed historians and archaeologists, and which provides us today with fundamental insights into sometimes forgotten aspects of western society. By interweaving his own original and innovative research with masterly interpretations of the Old Icelandic Sagas, Jesse Byock brilliantly brings it to life. <br /> <br />Publisher: Penguin History, Penguin Books <br />ISBN: 9780140291155</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="7af3032c68a7f70c96376030976f08fb" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":118942615,"asset_id":447351,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/118942615/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="447351"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="447351"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 447351;

Feared by many, Grettir is a warrior and also a poet and a lover who is afraid of the dark. Unable to resolve the dispute that has outlawed him, he lives outside the bounds of family life and he roams the countryside, ridding Iceland and Norway of berserker warriors, trolls, and the walking dead. The saga presents a poignant story of medieval Icelandic society, combining details of everyday legal disputes with folklore and legend. Written in the fourteenth century, but based on earlier oral and written sources, Grettir’s Saga, with its scathing humour, explicit verses, and fantastic monsters, is among the most famous and widely read of Iceland’s sagas. <br /><br />This new translation features extensive maps and illustrative material.<br /><br />Publisher: Oxford University Press, Oxford World’s Classics <br />ISBN: 9780192801524</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1964018"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1964018"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964018; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964018]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964018]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964018; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1964018']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1964018]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1964018,"title":"Grettir’s Saga ","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1964018/Grettir_s_Saga","owner_id":127229,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":127229,"first_name":"Jesse","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Byock","page_name":"JesseByock","domain_name":"ucla","created_at":"2010-02-03T04:51:55.445-08:00","display_name":"Jesse Byock","url":"https://ucla.academia.edu/JesseByock"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="1964002"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1964002/The_Saga_of_the_Volsungs_The_Norse_Epic_of_Sigurd_the_Dragon_Slayer"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of The Saga of the Volsungs: The Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer " class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1964002/The_Saga_of_the_Volsungs_The_Norse_Epic_of_Sigurd_the_Dragon_Slayer">The Saga of the Volsungs: The Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer </a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">An unforgettable tale of princely jealousy, unrequited love, greed and vengeance, the Saga of the...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">An unforgettable tale of princely jealousy, unrequited love, greed and vengeance, the Saga of the Volsungs is one of the great books of world literature. <br /><br />Based on Viking Age poems, the Volsung (Völsunga) Saga combines mythology, legend and sheer human drama. At its heart are the heroic deeds of Sigurd the dragon slayer who acquires runic knowledge from one of Odin’s Valkyries.Yet it is also set in a very human world, incorporating oral memories of the fourth and fifth centuries, when Attila the Hun and other warriors fought on the northern frontiers of the Roman empire. An illuminating Introduction links the historical Huns, Burgundians and Goths with the events of this Icelandic saga, whose author claimed that Sigurd’s name was ‘known in all tongues north of the Greek Ocean, and so it must remain while the world endures’. <br /><br />With its ill-fated Rhinegold. the sword reforged and the magic ring of power, the saga resembles the Nibelungenlied. It has been a primary source for fantasy writers such as William Morris, and for J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings and for Richard Wagner’s Ring cycle.<br /><br />Publisher: Penguin Classics, Penguin Books<br />ISBN: 9780140447385</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1964002"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1964002"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964002; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964002]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964002]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964002; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1964002']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1964002]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1964002,"title":"The Saga of the Volsungs: The Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer ","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1964002/The_Saga_of_the_Volsungs_The_Norse_Epic_of_Sigurd_the_Dragon_Slayer","owner_id":127229,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":127229,"first_name":"Jesse","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Byock","page_name":"JesseByock","domain_name":"ucla","created_at":"2010-02-03T04:51:55.445-08:00","display_name":"Jesse Byock","url":"https://ucla.academia.edu/JesseByock"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="1963999"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1963999/The_Prose_Edda_Norse_Mythology_Snorri_Sturluson"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of The Prose Edda: Norse Mythology - Snorri Sturluson" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1963999/The_Prose_Edda_Norse_Mythology_Snorri_Sturluson">The Prose Edda: Norse Mythology - Snorri Sturluson</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">‘What was the beginning, or how did things start?

Written in Iceland a century after the close of the Viking Age, it tells ancient stories of the Norse creation epic and recounts the battles that follow as gods, giants, dwarves and elves struggle for survival. It also preserves the oral memory of heroes, warrior kings and queens. In clear prose interspersed with powerful verse, the Edda provides unparalleled insight into the gods’ tragic realization that the future holds one final cataclysmic battle, Ragnarok, when the world will be destroyed. <br /><br />These tales from the pagan era have proved to be among the most influential of all myths and legends, inspiring modern works as diverse as Wagner’s Ring Cycle and Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings. <br /><br />This new translation by Jesse Byock captures the strength and subtlety of the original, while his introduction sets the tales fully in the context of Norse mythology. This edition also includes detailed notes and appendices.<br /><br />Publisher: Penguin Classics, Penguin Books <br />ISBN: 9780140447552</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1963999"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1963999"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1963999; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1963999]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1963999]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1963999; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1963999']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1963999]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1963999,"title":"The Prose Edda: Norse Mythology - Snorri Sturluson","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1963999/The_Prose_Edda_Norse_Mythology_Snorri_Sturluson","owner_id":127229,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":127229,"first_name":"Jesse","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Byock","page_name":"JesseByock","domain_name":"ucla","created_at":"2010-02-03T04:51:55.445-08:00","display_name":"Jesse Byock","url":"https://ucla.academia.edu/JesseByock"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="1964010"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1964010/The_Saga_of_King_Hrolf_Kraki"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki " class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1964010/The_Saga_of_King_Hrolf_Kraki">The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki </a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Composed in medieval Iceland, Hrolf’s Saga recalls ancient Scandinavia of the Migration Period, w...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Composed in medieval Iceland, Hrolf’s Saga recalls ancient Scandinavia of the Migration Period, when the warrior chieftain King Hrolf ruled in Denmark. <br /><br />In the Old Norse/Viking world, King Hrolf was a symbol of courage. Sharing rich oral traditions with the Anglo-Saxon epic Beowulf, Hrolf’s Saga recounts the tragedy of strife within Denmark’s royal hall. It tells of powerful women and the exploits of Hrolf’s famous champions – including Bodvar Bjarki, the ‘bear-warrior’, who strikingly resembles Beowulf. Combining heroic legend, myth and magic, Hrolf’s Saga has wizards, sorceresses and ‘berserker’ fighters, originally members of a cult of Odin. Most startling is the central love triangle: Hrolf’s father, a man of insatiable appetites, unknowingly abducts his daughter, who later marries the despised sorcerer King Adils of Sweden. <br /><br />A powerful human drama with deep historical roots, extraordinary events and fierce battle scenes, Hrolf’s Saga ranks among the masterworks of the Middle Ages, influencing writers such as J.R.R. Tolkien.<br /><br />Publisher: Penguin Classics, Penguin Books<br />ISBN: 9780140435931</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1964010"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1964010"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964010; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964010]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964010]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964010; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1964010']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1964010]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1964010,"title":"The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki ","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1964010/The_Saga_of_King_Hrolf_Kraki","owner_id":127229,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":127229,"first_name":"Jesse","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Byock","page_name":"JesseByock","domain_name":"ucla","created_at":"2010-02-03T04:51:55.445-08:00","display_name":"Jesse Byock","url":"https://ucla.academia.edu/JesseByock"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="profile--tab_heading_container js-section-heading" data-section="Papers" id="Papers"><h3 class="profile--tab_heading_container">Papers by Jesse Byock</h3></div><div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="125601691"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/125601691/Medieval_Iceland_Society_Sagas_and_Power"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Medieval Iceland: Society, Sagas, and Power" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/125601691/Medieval_Iceland_Society_Sagas_and_Power">Medieval Iceland: Society, Sagas, and Power</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>The American Historical Review</span><span>, Dec 1, 1990</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">University of California Press Berkeley and Los Angeles, California University of California Pres...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">University of California Press Berkeley and Los Angeles, California University of California Press, Ltd.

Seigneurs sanguinaires, maraudeurs sillonnant les rivages de l'Europe du Nord et pillant tout sur leur passage, les Vikings n'ont pas bonne réputation. Et pourtant ils ont fondé, en Islande, sur cette île demeurée quasi vierge de toute présence humaine jusqu'au IXe siècle, une société unique : basée sur un État libre et indépendant, elle est en grande partie exempte des hiérarchies sociales habituelles - y compris dans les rapports entre hommes et femmes - et fait reposer le règlement des conflits davantage sur le consensus que sur la violence et la guerre. Entre festins de raie pourrie et manuel de survie en milieu hostile, conflits juridiques et méthode de construction des maisons en mottes de terre herbeuse... c'est la vie quotidienne des Vikings à l'époque médiévale qui nous est ici dévoilée. En entrelaçant ses propres recherches historiques et archéologiques avec ses interprétations magistrales des sagas, ces récits littéraires typiquement islandais, Jesse Byock fait revivre cette civilisation avec brio. <br /> <br />Quoi que périphérique pour beaucoup d’Européens, l’Islande ancienne a beaucoup à nous dire sur la vie paysanne au Moyen Âge et sur les cultures de village. Les sources médiévales y sont en effet nombreuses et variées : ce sont les sagas, les histoires, les livres de loi, les vies d’évêques et de saints, écrites en vieux noirois, la langue des fermiers libres (bændr, singulier bóndi).

JWP was founded in 2013 with the Viking Language O l d N o r s e I c e l a n d i c Series providing modern students, teachers, and self-learners with accessible and affordable Old Norse texts. These books and pronunciation albums provide learners with all vocabulary and grammar needed to read passages from original sources right at the start. So also, our bilingual Saga Series. This spirit motivates our entire catalogue, as we develop new series on Viking history, m y t h , archaeology and historical fiction.

Mosfell Valley which is found in the Southwest of Iceland was settled during the early days of the landnám. The region was one of the country's cultural centers. The valley's harbor site was mentioned to be in Leiruvogur Bay. Modern constructions make the prospection and exploration of this harbor site nearly impossible. One of the few places that are left untouched is a mound known in oral tradition as Skiphóll (Ship Hill), that could once have been used as landmark for incoming ships. In this paper we present an integrated study comprising a GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) survey, excavation work and coring that was conducted on the Skiphóll. The aims of the study were to date the Skiphóll to show that it existed during the Viking Age by imaging specific volcanic tephra layers and to investigate the interior of the mound to understand its use. GPR was used because it has a suitable spatial resolution and depth penetration when investigating targets of the size of the Skiphóll. Nevertheless, because of the topography of the mound and the demand to image thin tephra layers, efforts have been done to increase the GPR resolution by topography based imaging and to create an integrated interpretation of all data. A reconstruction of the mound's appearance in 1500 CE was possible through a depth comparison of the specific tephra found in cores with the near-surface reflections in GPR. Excavations showed several mound and ditch features dating to between 871 CE and 1226. The GPR data correlates well with these features. Furthermore, the correlation of the GPR reflections with the excavated portions of the mound allows the projection of the archaeological features beyond the excavation area. The nature of the mound and ditches exposed in excavation and a ship-shaped anomaly reconstructed from the GPR slices, makes it appear most likely that the Skiphóll mound had a ritual function beyond just marking the harbor.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="fd48563a2c2f45e711853b7b746a4546" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":47283126,"asset_id":27028987,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/47283126/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="27028987"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="27028987"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 27028987;

Mosfell Valley which is found in the Southwest of Iceland was settled during the early days of the landnám. The region was one of the country's cultural centers. The valley's harbor site was mentioned to be in Leiruvogur Bay. Modern constructions make the prospection and exploration of this harbor site nearly impossible. One of the few places that are left untouched is a mound known in oral tradition as Skiphóll (Ship Hill), that could once have been used as landmark for incoming ships. In this paper we present an integrated study comprising a GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) survey, excavation work and coring that was conducted on the Skiphóll. The aims of the study were to date the Skiphóll to show that it existed during the Viking Age by imaging specific volcanic tephra layers and to investigate the interior of the mound to understand its use. GPR was used because it has a suitable spatial resolution and depth penetration when investigating targets of the size of the Skiphóll. Nevertheless, because of the topography of the mound and the demand to image thin tephra layers, efforts have been done to increase the GPR resolution by topography based imaging and to create an integrated interpretation of all data. A reconstruction of the mound's appearance in 1500 CE was possible through a depth comparison of the specific tephra found in cores with the near-surface reflections in GPR. Excavations showed several mound and ditch features dating to between 871 CE and 1226. The GPR data correlates well with these features. Furthermore, the correlation of the GPR reflections with the excavated portions of the mound allows the projection of the archaeological features beyond the excavation area. The nature of the mound and ditches exposed in excavation and a ship-shaped anomaly reconstructed from the GPR slices, makes it appear most likely that the Skiphóll mound had a ritual function beyond just marking the harbor.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="1f68e065978df71e40c16d3d4ec2ecdf" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":47282994,"asset_id":27028806,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/47282994/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="27028806"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="27028806"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 27028806;

It was, in fact, an independent, almost republican Free State, without warlords or kings. Honour was crucial in a world which sounds almost Utopian today. In Jesse Byock’s words, it was like ‘a great village’: a self governing community of settlers, who adapted to Iceland’s harsh climate and landscape, creating their own society. <br />Combining history and anthropology, this remarkable study explores in rich detail all aspects of Viking Age life: feasting, farming and battling with the elements, the power of chieftains and the church, marriage, the role of women and kinship. It shows us how law courts, which favoured compromise over violence, often prevented disputes over land, livestock or insults from becoming ‘blood feud’. In Iceland we can see a prototype democracy in action, which thrived for 300 years until it came under the control of the King of Norway in the 1260s. <br />This was a unique time in history, which has long perplexed historians and archaeologists, and which provides us today with fundamental insights into sometimes forgotten aspects of western society. By interweaving his own original and innovative research with masterly interpretations of the Old Icelandic Sagas, Jesse Byock brilliantly brings it to life. <br /> <br />Publisher: Penguin History, Penguin Books <br />ISBN: 9780140291155</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="7af3032c68a7f70c96376030976f08fb" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":118942615,"asset_id":447351,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/118942615/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="447351"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="447351"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 447351;

Feared by many, Grettir is a warrior and also a poet and a lover who is afraid of the dark. Unable to resolve the dispute that has outlawed him, he lives outside the bounds of family life and he roams the countryside, ridding Iceland and Norway of berserker warriors, trolls, and the walking dead. The saga presents a poignant story of medieval Icelandic society, combining details of everyday legal disputes with folklore and legend. Written in the fourteenth century, but based on earlier oral and written sources, Grettir’s Saga, with its scathing humour, explicit verses, and fantastic monsters, is among the most famous and widely read of Iceland’s sagas. <br /><br />This new translation features extensive maps and illustrative material.<br /><br />Publisher: Oxford University Press, Oxford World’s Classics <br />ISBN: 9780192801524</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1964018"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1964018"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964018; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964018]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964018]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964018; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1964018']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1964018]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1964018,"title":"Grettir’s Saga ","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1964018/Grettir_s_Saga","owner_id":127229,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":127229,"first_name":"Jesse","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Byock","page_name":"JesseByock","domain_name":"ucla","created_at":"2010-02-03T04:51:55.445-08:00","display_name":"Jesse Byock","url":"https://ucla.academia.edu/JesseByock"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="1964002"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1964002/The_Saga_of_the_Volsungs_The_Norse_Epic_of_Sigurd_the_Dragon_Slayer"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of The Saga of the Volsungs: The Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer " class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1964002/The_Saga_of_the_Volsungs_The_Norse_Epic_of_Sigurd_the_Dragon_Slayer">The Saga of the Volsungs: The Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer </a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">An unforgettable tale of princely jealousy, unrequited love, greed and vengeance, the Saga of the...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">An unforgettable tale of princely jealousy, unrequited love, greed and vengeance, the Saga of the Volsungs is one of the great books of world literature. <br /><br />Based on Viking Age poems, the Volsung (Völsunga) Saga combines mythology, legend and sheer human drama. At its heart are the heroic deeds of Sigurd the dragon slayer who acquires runic knowledge from one of Odin’s Valkyries.Yet it is also set in a very human world, incorporating oral memories of the fourth and fifth centuries, when Attila the Hun and other warriors fought on the northern frontiers of the Roman empire. An illuminating Introduction links the historical Huns, Burgundians and Goths with the events of this Icelandic saga, whose author claimed that Sigurd’s name was ‘known in all tongues north of the Greek Ocean, and so it must remain while the world endures’. <br /><br />With its ill-fated Rhinegold. the sword reforged and the magic ring of power, the saga resembles the Nibelungenlied. It has been a primary source for fantasy writers such as William Morris, and for J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings and for Richard Wagner’s Ring cycle.<br /><br />Publisher: Penguin Classics, Penguin Books<br />ISBN: 9780140447385</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1964002"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1964002"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964002; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964002]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964002]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964002; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1964002']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1964002]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1964002,"title":"The Saga of the Volsungs: The Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer ","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1964002/The_Saga_of_the_Volsungs_The_Norse_Epic_of_Sigurd_the_Dragon_Slayer","owner_id":127229,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":127229,"first_name":"Jesse","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Byock","page_name":"JesseByock","domain_name":"ucla","created_at":"2010-02-03T04:51:55.445-08:00","display_name":"Jesse Byock","url":"https://ucla.academia.edu/JesseByock"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="1963999"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1963999/The_Prose_Edda_Norse_Mythology_Snorri_Sturluson"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of The Prose Edda: Norse Mythology - Snorri Sturluson" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1963999/The_Prose_Edda_Norse_Mythology_Snorri_Sturluson">The Prose Edda: Norse Mythology - Snorri Sturluson</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">‘What was the beginning, or how did things start?

What was there before?’ <br /><br />The Prose Edda is the most renowned of all works of Scandinavian literature and our most extensive source for Norse mythology. Written in Iceland a century after the close of the Viking Age, it tells ancient stories of the Norse creation epic and recounts the battles that follow as gods, giants, dwarves and elves struggle for survival. It also preserves the oral memory of heroes, warrior kings and queens. In clear prose interspersed with powerful verse, the Edda provides unparalleled insight into the gods’ tragic realization that the future holds one final cataclysmic battle, Ragnarok, when the world will be destroyed. <br /><br />These tales from the pagan era have proved to be among the most influential of all myths and legends, inspiring modern works as diverse as Wagner’s Ring Cycle and Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings. <br /><br />This new translation by Jesse Byock captures the strength and subtlety of the original, while his introduction sets the tales fully in the context of Norse mythology. This edition also includes detailed notes and appendices.<br /><br />Publisher: Penguin Classics, Penguin Books <br />ISBN: 9780140447552</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1963999"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1963999"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1963999; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1963999]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1963999]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1963999; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1963999']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1963999]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1963999,"title":"The Prose Edda: Norse Mythology - Snorri Sturluson","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1963999/The_Prose_Edda_Norse_Mythology_Snorri_Sturluson","owner_id":127229,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":127229,"first_name":"Jesse","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Byock","page_name":"JesseByock","domain_name":"ucla","created_at":"2010-02-03T04:51:55.445-08:00","display_name":"Jesse Byock","url":"https://ucla.academia.edu/JesseByock"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="1964010"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1964010/The_Saga_of_King_Hrolf_Kraki"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki " class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/1964010/The_Saga_of_King_Hrolf_Kraki">The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki </a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Composed in medieval Iceland, Hrolf’s Saga recalls ancient Scandinavia of the Migration Period, w...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Composed in medieval Iceland, Hrolf’s Saga recalls ancient Scandinavia of the Migration Period, when the warrior chieftain King Hrolf ruled in Denmark. <br /><br />In the Old Norse/Viking world, King Hrolf was a symbol of courage. Sharing rich oral traditions with the Anglo-Saxon epic Beowulf, Hrolf’s Saga recounts the tragedy of strife within Denmark’s royal hall. It tells of powerful women and the exploits of Hrolf’s famous champions – including Bodvar Bjarki, the ‘bear-warrior’, who strikingly resembles Beowulf. Combining heroic legend, myth and magic, Hrolf’s Saga has wizards, sorceresses and ‘berserker’ fighters, originally members of a cult of Odin. Most startling is the central love triangle: Hrolf’s father, a man of insatiable appetites, unknowingly abducts his daughter, who later marries the despised sorcerer King Adils of Sweden. <br /><br />A powerful human drama with deep historical roots, extraordinary events and fierce battle scenes, Hrolf’s Saga ranks among the masterworks of the Middle Ages, influencing writers such as J.R.R. Tolkien.<br /><br />Publisher: Penguin Classics, Penguin Books<br />ISBN: 9780140435931</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1964010"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1964010"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964010; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964010]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1964010]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1964010; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1964010']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1964010]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1964010,"title":"The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki ","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1964010/The_Saga_of_King_Hrolf_Kraki","owner_id":127229,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":127229,"first_name":"Jesse","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Byock","page_name":"JesseByock","domain_name":"ucla","created_at":"2010-02-03T04:51:55.445-08:00","display_name":"Jesse Byock","url":"https://ucla.academia.edu/JesseByock"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> </div><div class="profile--tab_content_container js-tab-pane tab-pane" data-section-id="278412" id="papers"><div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="125601691"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/125601691/Medieval_Iceland_Society_Sagas_and_Power"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Medieval Iceland: Society, Sagas, and Power" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/125601691/Medieval_Iceland_Society_Sagas_and_Power">Medieval Iceland: Society, Sagas, and Power</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>The American Historical Review</span><span>, Dec 1, 1990</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">University of California Press Berkeley and Los Angeles, California University of California Pres...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">University of California Press Berkeley and Los Angeles, California University of California Press, Ltd.

Seigneurs sanguinaires, maraudeurs sillonnant les rivages de l'Europe du Nord et pillant tout sur leur passage, les Vikings n'ont pas bonne réputation. Et pourtant ils ont fondé, en Islande, sur cette île demeurée quasi vierge de toute présence humaine jusqu'au IXe siècle, une société unique : basée sur un État libre et indépendant, elle est en grande partie exempte des hiérarchies sociales habituelles - y compris dans les rapports entre hommes et femmes - et fait reposer le règlement des conflits davantage sur le consensus que sur la violence et la guerre. Entre festins de raie pourrie et manuel de survie en milieu hostile, conflits juridiques et méthode de construction des maisons en mottes de terre herbeuse... c'est la vie quotidienne des Vikings à l'époque médiévale qui nous est ici dévoilée. En entrelaçant ses propres recherches historiques et archéologiques avec ses interprétations magistrales des sagas, ces récits littéraires typiquement islandais, Jesse Byock fait revivre cette civilisation avec brio. <br /> <br />Quoi que périphérique pour beaucoup d’Européens, l’Islande ancienne a beaucoup à nous dire sur la vie paysanne au Moyen Âge et sur les cultures de village. Les sources médiévales y sont en effet nombreuses et variées : ce sont les sagas, les histoires, les livres de loi, les vies d’évêques et de saints, écrites en vieux noirois, la langue des fermiers libres (bændr, singulier bóndi).

To a large degree this downgrading has occurred because the fornaldarsögur are often fantastic narrations that read very differently from the more sober and worldly islendingasögur [family sagas]. Written in the period from roughly the thirteenth to the fifteenth century, the fornaldarsögur, a mixture of tradition and invention, often recount legendary and mythic events from the recesses of Scandinavian folk memory. Sometimes a tale follows its hero or heroes into the supernatural world and also recounts quasi-historical memories of events that can be traced as far back as the migration period. In general, the fornaldarsögur focus on Scandinavia; southern Germanic matters and events are less evident and usually only enter the tales in connection with stories built on, or sharing motifs and traditions with, Eddie material, as they do in the Völsunga saga. Both the family and the kings' sagas, as well as other Norse sources, offer a good deal of evidence suggesting that the fornaldarsögur, or similar prose narratives, were told orally by Icelanders both before and after writing became common in the twelfth century. Sturlu þáttr, from the Sturlunga saga compendium (1946), contains a description of such oral storytelling. It records the following tale about Sturla Þórðarson, who journeyed to Norway in the mid-thirteenth century. Sturla undertook his trip hoping to restore his standing with the king, to whom he had been slandered. As fate would have it, Sturla, though gaining access to the royal ship, found the king displeased with him, and the Icelander was lodged in the forward part of the vessel away from the king (vol. 2:232-33). And when the men lay down to sleep, the king's forecastleman asked who should entertain them. Most remained silent at this. Then he asked: "Sturla the Icelander, will you entertain us?" "You decide," says Sturla. Then he told Huldar saga, better and more cleverly than any of them who were there had heard before. Many thronged forward on the deck and wanted to hear it clearly, so that there was a great throng there. The queen asked, "What is that crowd of men on the foredeck?" A man says, "The men want to hear the saga that the Icelander is telling." She said, "What saga is that?" He replied, "It's about a great troll-woman, and it is a good story, and it is being well told." The king told her to pay no heed to this but to sleep. She said, "I think this Icelander must be a good man and much less to blame than he is reported to be."</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="a79061e01474658873adbab569d2ac23" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":118289926,"asset_id":123978046,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/118289926/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="123978046"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="123978046"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 123978046;

(J.R.R). Tolkien spent much of his life studying, translating and teaching the great epic stories of northern Europe, filled with heroes, dragons, trolls, dwarves and magic. He was hugely influential for his advocacy of Beowulf as a great work of literature and, even if he had never written The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, would be recognised today as a significant figure in the rediscovery of these extraordinary tales. Legends from the Ancient North brings together from Penguin Classics five of the key works behind Tolkien&#39;s fiction. They are startling, brutal, strange pieces of writing, with an elemental power brilliantly preserved in these translations. They plunge the reader into a world of treachery, quests, chivalry, trials of strength. They are the most ancient narratives that exist from northern Europe and bring us as near as we will ever get to the origins of the magical landscape of Middle-earth (Midgard) which Tolkien remade in the 20th century.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="123978045"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="123978045"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 123978045; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=123978045]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=123978045]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 123978045; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='123978045']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=123978045]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":123978045,"title":"The Saga of the Volsungs","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/123978045/The_Saga_of_the_Volsungs","owner_id":127229,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":127229,"first_name":"Jesse","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Byock","page_name":"JesseByock","domain_name":"ucla","created_at":"2010-02-03T04:51:55.445-08:00","display_name":"Jesse Byock","url":"https://ucla.academia.edu/JesseByock"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="123978044"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/123978044/The_Saga_of_King_Hrolf_Kraki"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/123978044/The_Saga_of_King_Hrolf_Kraki">The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Composed in medieval Iceland, Hrolf&#39;s Saga is one of the greatest of all mythic-legendary sag...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Composed in medieval Iceland, Hrolf&#39;s Saga is one of the greatest of all mythic-legendary sagas, relating half-fantastical events that were said to have occurred in fifth-century Denmark. It tells of the exploits of King Hrolf and of his famous champions, including Bodvar Bjarki, the bear-warrior&#39;: a powerful figure whose might and bear-like nature are inspired by the same legendary heritage as Beowulf. Depicting a world of wizards, sorceresses and berserker&#39; fighters originally members of a cult of Odin this is a compelling tale of ancient magic. A work of timeless power and beauty, it offers both a treasury of Icelandic prose and a masterful gathering of epic, cultic memory, traditional folk tale and myths from the Viking age and far earlier.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="123978044"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="123978044"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 123978044;
