Listen "S1E4 - The Prose Edda Part 1: the author, the background, and the issue of bias in Norse Mythology"
Episode Synopsis
This week on Kvasir's Korner, join Jacob and Jay as they delve into Norse mythology with the Prose Edda! Learn more about the infamous Snorri Sturluson -- the author of the edda -- as well as the context and introduction to the myths of the Norse Vikings. Along the way, Jacob and Jay will ponder how much of the edda is true to the beliefs of the pre-Christian North or if Snorri is infusing the stories with Christian influences.
