DESCRIPTION

Hrafnkel's Saga and Other Icelandic Stories (Classics)

Written around the thirteenth century AD by Icelandic monks, the seven tales collected here offer a

combination of pagan elements tightly woven into the pattern of Christian ethics. They take as their

subjects figures who are heroic, but do not fit into the mould of traditional heroes. Some stories concern

characters in Iceland - among them Hrafknel's Saga, in which a poor man's son is murdered by his

powerful neighbour, and Thorstein the Staff-Struck, which describes an ageing warrior's struggle to settle

into a peaceful rural community. Others focus on the adventures of Icelanders abroad, including the

compelling Audun's Story, which depicts a farmhand's pilgrimage to Rome. These fascinating tales deal

with powerful human emotions, suffering and dignity at a time of profound transition, when traditional

ideals were gradually yielding to a more peaceful pastoral lifestyle.
