Описание: Professor Anderson has made himself the interpreter of the Norse genius to the nation which promised to become in some of its sections a western Norway. He has eminent qualifications for this great work in his vital as well as scholarly comprehension of a world of thought and feeling to which we are in a measure alien, and in his ready command of our own tongue. A genuine enthusiasm impels him to the discharge of a task among the most important that ever devolves upon the man of letters. Carlyle was the first to excite a popular interest in the great history of thought and action which have been the fertile soil of Norse legend and literature. Odin and Thor are familiar figures since his strong hand drew their massive features with a few bold, inspiring strokes. Professor Anderson laid the foundation of what, we hope, will be a comprehensive rendering of the Norse masterpieces into English by reducing the vast, chaotic Norse mythology into order, translating its noble conceptions, gods and men, into myths of such beauty that every English mind must recognize their natural majesty. A rich view of native poetry runs through Norse life, and makes even its severe simplicity fit material for the finest literary art. Bj rnson is the greatest mind which Norway has produced for centuries. He is a man of intense activity, the creative impulse impelling him to many forms of literary expression, and to the more aggressive work of religious and political reform. "Synn ve Solbakken" was his first novel; the work of his early manhood. It appeared in 1857, and was immediately recognized as the work of a master.It is a simple story of Norse life told with directness and simplicity which seems born of the very nature of the quiet, secluded existence which it portrays. Its almost meager outlines betray the touch of a bold, sure hand. and spring from no poverty of imaginative power or lack of descriptive faculty. Out of a few common elements the old story of human weakness built up into strength by the power of human love is told again, with a freshness that will be a new revolution to the novel reader weary of intense situations and exaggerated sentiment. As a picture of life in Norway it is eminently worthy of careful study. Prof. Anderson has apparently done his work as a translator with commendable repression of himself. The other stories in the series will be awaited with great interest.-New Outlook, Volume 24 1881]

Описание: In the lyric-epic poem "Arnljot Gelline," we have Bj rnson in his first, purely Norse, period. The hero is an outlaw who joins the forces of King Olaf Trygvason and falls with him in the Battle of Stiklestad for the cause of Christ against the older gods. The story is told in a series of vivid episodes, each with a mood and metre of its own. To a reader unable to appreciate the stern reserve power of Norse poetry, such a piece will seem bare in subject and abstruse in style, but to him who catches the tone it will be rich in inspiration. The alternations of gloom and radiant vision are like the changing lights of a broken storm on the North Sea.Dr. Payne has followed the original in rhythm and rhyme, with the result that he conveys to the reader much of its atmosphere. He is most happy where the verse is freest and least rhyme is required. Here his phrasing has great directness and dignity, together with a sweep that carries one along breathlessly. In the more set passages, the inversions of the English are at times disturbing. Fortunately the great moments come where the translator is most completely submerged in the scenes and emotions of the poem. A compact introduction and notes with full quotations from the "Heimskringla" and Bj rnson's other sources make the volume attractive alike to the general reader and the scholar.-"Scandinavian Review," Volume 6
