Synopsis
Jackson's Crawford's Poetic Edda offers readers new to this masterpiece of medieval Scandinavian literature a chance to experience the most important Old Norse poems with greater understanding and appreciation than does any previous translation.
Rendered in plain though generally formal langage - and through the occasional use of internal glosses calculated to clarify but not overwhelm - the translation is accompanied by an Introduction crafted especially to meet the needs of readers unversed in the Old Norse worldview. A Glossary is also included.
