"Poetry in fornaldarsögur is a new edition of the corpus of poetry, mostly in eddic
metres, from Icelandic mythical-heroic sagas. This volume contains all the anonymous
poetry from medieval Icelandic mythical-heroic sagas (fornaldarsögur), such as Heiðreks
saga, Gautreks saga, and other sagas set in prehistoric Scandinavia and more exotic
locations. This diverse body of poetry is treated here for the first time as significant
in its own right rather than as an appendage to the Poetic Edda. It also contains
a new edition with extensive notes of Gunnlaugr Leifsson's Merlínuspá, based on
Geoffrey of Monmouth's Prophecies of Merlin, as well as the little-known but entertaining
Skaufhala bálkr by Svartr á Hofstöðum, a mock-heroic poem about a fox"--Publisher's
