My method is eclectic. Emphasis is on individual sagas. This procedure brings with it a certain amount of repetition, especially in comments on saga style and structure. Several sagas that are not available in modern English translations are treated at greater length than would otherwise be the case. Questions of sources, manuscript transmission, and the like are touched on briefly in a few cases to give the general reader or the beginning student of Old Norse an inkling of the complexity of some of the problems connected with the study of this fascinating literature.
