FROM THE PUBLISHER - The Icelandic Landnamabok, or Book of Settlements is a unique document in world literature. First compiled early in the twelfth century and later expanded, it describes the birth of the Icelandic nation in the Viking Age, some two centuries earlier. The book is not only an important source for the history of the period, but also contains many stories of literary value, where antiquarian views of the past are seen with an unerring eye for humanising detail. A nineteenth century Icelandic scholar once said that the loss of this work alone in some respects have weighed more heavily for the history of his country than the loss of all the sagas together. The present translation, with an extended Introduction by Hermann Palsson and Paul Edwards, is based on the celebrated version of Sturla Thordarson (1214-1239), one of the greatest historians of medieval Iceland. The text of this volume is supplemented by a number of color photographic reproductions of Icelandic landscape and thirteen colour maps. It is the intention of the editors that this be the first of a series to appear under the general title University of Icelandic Studies. The series will present monographs and translations in both the medieval and modern periods dealing with Icelandic literature, history and culture. inventory #45615 Previous Owner s stamp in Front and Back and a Tiny Stain Mark on the Very Upper corner of the Front Free Endpaper, otherwise Very Good.
