The Sagas of Olaf Tryggvason and of Harald The Tyrant (Harald Haardraade) by Snorri Sturluson Pdf
This book is about a great and rousing story of the last of the Viking kings, with truly incredible adventures. The highlight is not the language with flowery flourishes, but with jolting, abrupt changes in plot. There is no inner-dialogue, and the dialogue between characters is direct but halting, with little fluidity. It is obvious that this is an ancient text and a translation.

Oddr Snorrason, a Benedictine monk in northern Iceland in the late twelfth century, composed a landmark Latin biography of the legendary Norwegian king Olaf Tryggvason (died 1000 C.E.). This biography was soon translated into Icelandic, and the translation (though not the Latin original) is preserved in two somewhat differing versions and a small fragment of a third. The Saga of Olaf Tryggvason is the first English translation of this text, augmented by an introduction and notes to guide the reader. There is a strong possibility that Oddr's biography was the first full-length saga of the Icelandic Middle Ages. It ushered in a century of saga writing that assured Iceland a unique place in medieval literature and in the history of prose writing. Aside from being a harbinger of the saga tradition, and indeed of the modern novel, The Saga of Olaf Tryggvason has its own literary merits, including an epic description of the great Battle of Svoldr, in which King Olaf succumbed. In significant ways the narrative of this battle anticipates the mature style of the classical sagas in the thirteenth century.

The Saga of King Olaf Tryggwason by Oddr Snorrason Pdf
Excerpt from The Saga of King Olaf Tryggwason: Who Reigned Over Norway, A. D. 995 to A. D. 1000 In the Prolegomena to the Oxford Edition of the Sturlunga, the present Saga is called the Great 0. T. Saga, to distinguish it from the Heimskringla life of the King. It is to a large extent a compilation of other Sagas. King Olaf, the Apostle of Christianity to Iceland, held an important place in the Icelandic literature of the first part of the thirteenth century, and one of his admirers thought it desirable to collect into one complete story, and weld together, the notices respect ing him. First and foremost of the author's sources is the Heimskringla life, by Snorri, which gives what may be called an historical picture of the hero. Next to this is a life written by Odd Monk at the close of the twelfth century. This work, written originally in Latin, is lost, but two free translations of it exist, and these give what may be called a legendary picture of the King. Both these lives fully described King Olaf's great work of bringing heathen Norway within the Christian fold.
