Chronicles of Christendom

The Icelandic Ere-Dweller (Eyrbyggja) Saga


Listen Later

We go to Medieval Iceland today with the Ere-Dweller saga. This story tells about families in the Snæfellsnes peninsula, feuds, ghost hauntings, witches, trials, murders, arson, and the coming of Christianity into Iceland. I’m using the Hermann Palsson & Paul Edwards translation published by Penguin as Eyrbyggja SagaThere is an older out of copyright version: https://sagadb.org/eyrbyggja_saga.en
