Description

This collection of essays from Routledge brings contemporary critical approaches to the Poetic Edda, one of the most important sources for understanding Old Norse mythology, cosmography, and the legends of Odin, Loki, and Thor. The volume combines introductory material that traces the critical history of the Eddas with in-depth scholarly analysis from both established and emerging academics. By applying feminist, structuralist, and post-structuralist theoretical frameworks to the major poems, contributors offer fresh interpretations that illuminate the mythological narratives. The diverse perspectives from scholars of varying backgrounds provide multiple lenses through which to understand these foundational Norse texts, making this an essential resource for anyone studying Old Norse literature, mythology, or literary criticism.
