The Language of Old Norse Poetry, an important intellectual achievement of the Western Middle Ages

斯堪的纳维亚古诗是欧洲文学中最重要的成就之一，产生于北欧海盗时代至中世纪末期。在主题上，它的范围从对维京国王的赞扬到基督教的虔诚；在节拍和风格上，它非常精致。它应用于一系列学科，包括历史、考古学、语言学和宗教研究。该项目将通过提供新的英语资源，使学者和公众更容易接触到斯堪的纳维亚诗意语言，取代以前的研究，因为使用的是经过充分修订的原始数据。

Old Norse poetry, produced from the Viking Age until the end of the Middle Ages, is one of the most important achievements in European literature. Thematically, it ranges from praise of Viking kings to Christian devotion; in metre and style it is extremely elaborate. It has applied value to a range of disciplines, including history, archaeology, linguistics and religious studies. This project will make Norse poetic language more accessible to scholars and the general public by providing new resources in the English language for its understanding, superseding previous studies because of the use of fully revised primary data.
