Our dear friend and fellow skaldic editor, Kari Ellen Gade, passed away on 5 March 2022 after suffering from cancer for some months. We acknowledge here her unparalleled contribution to the skaldic edition and her immense knowledge of Old Norse-Icelandic poetry and philology. We will continue to carry on the skaldic project without her by first bringing to completion this year Volume V on Poetry in Sagas of Icelanders and then completing the remaining three volumes. We are very pleased to announce that, with Kari’s endorsement, Rob Fulk has agreed to take Kari’s place among the General Editors of the series. — The editors, 9 March 2022
