Annotation
Anderson researches possible influences the troubadour tradition in Provence, France, and french epic might have had on Old Norse skaldic poetry. He draws the conclusion that Old Norse skaldic poetry was not influenced by those genres, in spite of Rögnvaldr kali visiting Provence and the similarities certain poems share. He claims the roots of early skald biographies lie in the Kings sagas, and that Egils saga is one of those.
Lýsing
Anderson rannsakar hugsanleg áhrif frá trúbadorhefð frá Provence, Frakklandi og franskri epík á norræna dróttkvæðahefð. Hann kemst að þeirri niðurstöðu að þrátt fyrir heimsókn Rögnvaldar kala til Provence og ákveðin líkindi einstakra kvæða sé ekki um slík áhrif að ræða, heldur séu rætur elstu skáldsagnanna í Konungasögunum, þar á meðal Egils sögu.
