{"product_id":"9781107600454","title":"Stories and Ballads of the Far Past : Translated from the Norse (Icelandic and Faroese) with Introductions and Notes","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally published in 1921, this book contains English translations of stories taken from the Fornaldar Sögur Northrlanda, or 'Stories of Ancient Times relating to the countries of the North', a collection of Old Norse Sagas edited by Rafn in 1829-30 and re-edited by Valdimar Ásmundarson in 1886-91. The stories contained in this collection deal almost exclusively with times anterior to Harold the Fairhaired (c. 860-930), and the colonisation of Iceland. Written texts for the stories as a rule come from the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, though the actual manuscripts themselves are generally later. This English edition contains a generous introduction and explanatory notes, making it accessible to the general reader. It will be of value to anyone with an interest in Old Norse literature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45412435525711,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":1365.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/9174\/2287\/files\/9781107600454-1.jpg?v=1780448179","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9781107600454","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
