Individual saints Summary "The Saints in Old Norse and Early Modern Icelandic Poetry is a complimentary volume to The Legends of the Saints in Old Norse-Icelandic Prose (UTP 2013). While its predecessor dealt primarily with medieval prose texts about the saints, this volume not only focuses on medieval poems about saints but also on Icelandic devotional poetry created during the early modern period. The handlist organizes saints' names, manuscripts, and editions of individual poems with references to approximate dates of the manuscripts, as well as modern Icelandic editions and translations. Each entry concludes with secondary literature about the poem in question. These features combine to make The Saints in Old Norse and Early Modern Icelandic Poetry an invaluable resource for scholars and students in the field."-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes In English Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed February 2, 2017) Subject Old Norse poetry -- Bibliography Religious poetry, Old Norse -- Bibliography Icelandic poetry -- Early modern, 1500-1700 -- Bibliography Christian saints -- Poetry -- Early works to 1800 -- Bibliography Christian saints in literature -- Bibliography Christian saints -- Poetry -- Early works to 1800 -- Bibliography REFERENCE -- Bibliographies & Indexes.
