The Wanderer's Hávamál features Jackson Crawford’s complete, carefully revised English translation of the Old Norse poem Hávamál, newly annotated for this volume, together with facing original Old Norse text sourced directly from the Codex Regius manuscript.

Rounding out the volume are Crawford’s classic Cowboy Hávamál and translations of other related texts central to understanding the character, wisdom, and mysteries of Óðinn (Odin). Portable and reader-friendly, it makes an ideal companion for both lovers of Old Norse mythology and those new to the wisdom of this central Eddic poem wherever they may find themselves.

thoroughly enjoyable!

5 izar

excellent and good transcription and translation and lots of information about the ancient text.

after the text and translation of the poem he goes through every (i think) verse and calls out particular points about translation and meanings.

and for good measure he includes a couple of more texts AND his own, delightful "cowboy" version of the first part of hávamál, which reads very well indeed!

wonderful!
