Annotation
The main argument of this work is that Egil's saga was composed by one inconsistently working author. This is concluded from volatile induction and processing of subsidiary subject matters. Only the chapters 1-66 of the saga are regarded, since, as Vogt claims, they constitute a closed, one-stringed composition, while the rest of the saga disperses into a two stringed narrative. Therefore, the supposition is made that the latter part (ch. 67 onwards), must be older and and less coherent. The first part, on the other hand, is younger and shows both unity in language, structure of speech and composition, which hints at an author’s thought process. For the second part, the author maintained the folk-like structure of the material at hand and simply intertwined it with the former part.
