The Phonology of the Elis Saga: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculties of the Graduate Schools of Arts, Literature, and Science, in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, (Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures) (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Phonology of the Elis Saga: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculties of the Graduate Schools of Arts, Literature, and Science, in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, (Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures)
The Elis saga is the Old Norwegian version of the French chanson de geste, Elie de Saint Gille. The translation was made by the abbot Robert, at the direction of the king Hakon Hakonson, probably in the second quarter of the thirteenth century.
The principal manuscript is the one known as A, in the library of the University of Upsala. The only edition of the saga is that of Eugen Kolbing, Heilbronn, 1881, upon which the present work on the phonology is based. In the introduction to this edition is found a full discussion of the manuscript question.
The principal French manuscript is fr.25516 in the Bibliothèque Nationale ed. by Gaston Raynaud, Paris, 1879. This is also a copy or version, made in the thirteenth century, of an older work. The original, upon which both French and Norwegian versions are based, dates, probably, from the twelfth century.
