The medieval Scandinavian ballads in this collection tell stories of champions and fighters, vikings, and trolls, drawing on Norse mythology and heroic legend. There are riddles, and there are appearances from Thor, Loki, Sigurd, and other figures from the myths of the Edda and from history. Narrative ballads were part of an oral folk music tradition in Scandinavia, and were first written down around 1600, although the ballads themselves are older. These new English verse translations are mainly based on Swedish tradition. The hero Widrick Waylandsson comes face to face with a troll in the forest. Thor resorts to crossdressing in a bid to recover his stolen hammer. The daughter of a King of Sweden is abducted from a convent in the Swedish countryside. A young fighter has to show off his prowess in skiing and shooting for King Harald Hardrada. And more... All the ballads included are: Widrick Waylandsson's Fight with LongBen Reyser; Twelve Strong Fighters; HillaLill; Sir Hjalmar; The Hammer Hunt; The Stablemates; Sven SwanWhite; The Cloister Raid; Heming and the Mountain Troll; Heming and King Harald. "A charming introduction to Scandinavian Lore." Sam Smith, in The Journal (once 'of Contemporary AngloScandinavian Poetry')
