Omschrijving

The Story Of The Heath Slayings, also known as Heitharviga Saga, is a classic Icelandic saga that has been translated into English by the renowned poet and artist, William Morris. The book tells the story of a feud between two powerful families in Iceland, the Heath-Bourns and the Laxdales, that ultimately leads to a series of violent and bloody clashes.The saga is set in the 10th century and follows the lives of several key characters, including the brave and cunning warrior, Gunnlaug, and his lover, Helga. The two are caught up in the conflict between the two families and find themselves fighting for their lives in a series of intense battles.The Story Of The Heath Slayings is a gripping tale of love, revenge, and honor that offers a fascinating glimpse into the culture and society of medieval Iceland. Morris's translation captures the poetic and dramatic language of the original saga, making it accessible to modern readers while preserving the beauty and power of the original text. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in Icelandic sagas, medieval literature, or epic tales of adventure and heroism.That summer there was with Bardi in his Thing-journey one Thord, the goodman at Broadford in Waterdale; he had two horses, all white except for black ears. These horses he deemed beasts so dear, that he would not miss them for any other horses. But it befell for Thord's faring-mishap that both these horses vanished away.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
