Download or read book The Eyrbyggja Saga and the Story of the Heath Slayings written by Anonymous and published by Digireads.Com. This book was released on 2011 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of this Icelandic saga is unknown, yet was likely written in the mid-13th century. "Eyrbyggja" begins at the time of Iceland's settlement, but most of the events throughout take place towards the end of the 10th century and early 11th century. The title means the saga of the inhabitants of Eyrr, a farm on Snaefellsnes in Iceland. Throughout the tale, the Ere-Dwellers are confronted by tragedy and death, which result in ghosts, eerie occurrences, and hauntings. The mix of realism with gothic imagination and history dramatizes a 13th century view of the past, from the pagan rebellion of the Viking age, the coming of Christianity, and the beginnings of organized society. The main focus is to trace a few key families as they settled in Iceland, rather than to focus on a single protagonist. "Eyrbyggja" is characterized by a distinct interest in old lore, rituals, pagan practices and superstitions. It is valued for many reasons including a certain historic credibility and folkloric elements. Also included in this edition is "The Story of the Heath-Slayings."

Download or read book Icelanders in the Viking Age written by William R. Short and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2010-03-02 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sagas of Icelanders are enduring stories from Viking-age Iceland filled with love and romance, battles and feuds, tragedy and comedy. Yet these tales are little read today, even by lovers of literature. The culture and history of the people depicted in the Sagas are often unfamiliar to the modern reader, though the audience for whom the tales were intended would have had an intimate understanding of the material. This text introduces the modern reader to the daily lives and material culture of the Vikings. Topics covered include religion, housing, social customs, the settlement of disputes, and the early history of Iceland. Issues of dispute among scholars, such as the nature of settlement and the division of land, are addressed in the text.
