New translation: "Litla Skálda" by Lyonel Perabo, Denise Vast, and Ann Sheffield

Rarely rendered in English, Mimisbrunnr.info is pleased to host a new translation of the Old Icelandic “Litla Skálda” as rendered by Lyonel Perabo, Denise Vast, and Ann Sheffield. Litla Skálda – the name means something like “a little bit about poetry” – is a medieval Icelandic text that contains a succinct list of kennings and heiti that could be used in composing skaldic poetry.
