Finnboga saga hins ramma

by Anonymous, Hugo Gering (editor)

Hugo Gering's 1879 edition of Finnboga saga ramma, a saga of Icelanders presumably composed in the thirteenth century. The diplomatic text of the edition is based on Möðruvallabók (AM 132 fol.) but readings from AM 510 4to are printed at the foot of each page. Includes Gering's forty-page "Vorrede" where he, for example, describes the orthography in Möðruvallabók, prints the text of the saga from the fragmentary manuscript AM 162 C fol. and looks at the relationship of fifteen manuscripts that contain the saga.

[Bjarni Gunnar · Rating 3 out of 5]

A pretty solid edition of a saga of Icelanders that can hardly be called one of the greatest.
