The Sagas of Ragnar Lodbrok by Ben Waggoner

The Sagas of Ragnar Lodbrok by Ben Waggoner

Although based on historical persons from the ninth century, Ragnar Lodbrok and his sons are the subjects of compelling legends dating from the Viking era. Warriors, raiders, and rulers, Ragnar and his sons inspired unknown writers to set down their stories over seven centuries ago. This volume presents new and original translations of the three major Old Norse texts that tell Ragnar's story: The Saga of Ragnar Lodbrok, The Tale of Ragnar's Sons, and The Sogubrot. Ragnar's death song, the Krakumal, completes the story. Extensive notes and commentary are provided, helping listeners enter the world of these timeless stories of Viking adventure.
