Originally published in 1935, this book examines the role of dreams in Old Norse literature, how dreams were changed by the coming of Christianity, and how parallels in folklore can further inform an understanding of the importance of dreams to pre-Christian Norsemen. Kelchner also supplies an appendix featuring the original Icelandic text of the relevant Eddas alongside her own translation. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in thematic conventions in Old Norse literature.
