Lausavísa — Skáldþ LvIII

Skáldþórir

R. D. Fulk 2017, ‘ Skáldþórir, Lausavísa’ in Kari Ellen Gade and Edith Marold (eds), Poetry from Treatises on Poetics. Skaldic Poetry of the Scandinavian Middle Ages 3. Turnhout: Brepols, p. 353. <https://skaldic.org/m.php?p=text&i=1367> (accessed 26 April 2024)

 

This helmingr (Skáldþ Lv) is transmitted only in the version of SnE preserved in W, where the poet is named as Skáldþórir. The modern designation of lausavísa is retained here, despite possible indications to the contrary (see Note to l. 2). The stanza is also transmitted in mss 2368ˣ(96) and 743ˣ(75v) of the Y version of LaufE, and it was copied from a LaufE ms. in RE 1665(Ff 3). All of these versions ultimately derive from W, and neither LaufE nor RE 1665 has been used in this edition.

For prose works you will see a list of the stanzas and fragments in that prose work, where relevant, providing links to the individual stanzas.

Where you have access to introduction(s) to the poem or prose work in the database, these will appear in the ‘introduction’ section.

The final section, ‘sources’ is a list of the manuscripts that contain the prose work, as well as manuscripts and prose works linked to stanzas and sections of a text.
