Annotation
In this handbook the artistry of the scalds is thoroughly examined according to the following thematic cores: ‘laudatory and slanderous poetry’, ‘poetry about poetry’, ‘poetry about old age’, ‘love and envy poetry’, ‘travels, adventures, tempests, battles’ and ‘dreams and visions’. Among the rated poets Egil is characterized for his ability to represent the unimaginable. Some of the poems he performs in Egil's saga are analysed and commented, namely, the slanderous stanzas composed for Erik Blood-axe and queen Gunnhild, the stanza about the killing of Bard, Arínbjarnarkviða, the stanzas in Egil’s old age, Sonatorrek, the two love stanzas about Asgerd and finally some of the stanzas about Egil’s unique adventures.
