About this listen

In 1643, a manuscript was discovered, clearly written as early as 1300, containing 29 poems, complete or fragmentary. Various linguistic forensic techniques suggest that the poems were shaped even earlier, stretching as far back as AD 850, well within the Viking era. When it comes to the Norse myths, they are the closest thing we have to reading these stories as the Vikings actually told them, around those ancient campfires so long ago.
