Skaldic Poetry of the Scandinavian Middle Ages |

Steinarr (Steinarr)11th century; volume 3; ed. Russell Poole; Poem about a woman (Woman) - 1 Skj info: Steinarr, Islænder, 11. årh.(?) (AI, 417, BI, 386). Skj poems: Nothing is known about Steinarr (Steinarr) beyond the citation of a half-stanza fragment in Skm (SnE). In SnE mss Tˣ and A he is referred to as Steinn but that is probably merely through confusion with Hallar-Steinn, some of whose stanzas appear immediately before this helmingr within the same group of citations. Finnur Jónsson (Skj, with a query) refers Steinarr to the eleventh century but there do not seem to be linguistic or other grounds for any certainty on this point. |
