Subject: What Are The Eddas? Mon Dec 03, 2007 4:39 pm
The Eddas are a collection of ancient Icelandic literature relating Norse mythology in poetic form. There are volumes of the Eddas which were written in the 13th-century commonly distinguished as the Prose (ir Younger Edda) and the Poetic (or Elder Edda). These two collections of literature are the fullest and most detailed source for modern knowledge of Germanic mythology.
