Omschrijving

Old Norse is a North Germanic language spoken by inhabitants of Scandinavia from about the 7th to the 15th centuries. Old Icelandic is a variety of Old West Norse that emerged during the Norse settlement of Iceland in the second half of the 9th century. The rich tradition of Icelandic literature survived by oral tradition over several centuries before being written down in the 13th Century. The Saga of Thorstein the White (þorsteins saga hvíta) is one of the many Sags of Icelanders or Íslendingasögur. The word 'saga' (plural: 'sǫgur' or 'sögur') translates as 'what is said', an 'utterance', an 'oral account', or a 'notification'.
