Thank you very kindly. I agree with you. The Northman seems to come the closest of all the film versions I have thus far seen. But there's also something in the sagas that make them almost impossible to capture in film form.
@@VIKINGSAGAS I like how a lot of the sagas reference Harold fair hair- having listened to all of Egils saga I feel like I already have the stage set in my mind
@@VIKINGSAGAS hey man one thing I really want to do is start making maps for your videos because at first it was really hard for me to understand the place names and trying to figure out where they were on modern maps but If I listen closely and do some research I could make a map for each episode showing where the events took place or approximations because I know some things are lost forever but it would be a great reference
Thank you Alban! I am using the old, public domain English translation by William Morris & Eirikr Magnusson however, I often re-write and re-word things to make them more understandable and a bit more modern and less flowery sounding. On Egil's saga I added a lot of words and reworked it more heavily, in this Saga I ten to just streamline and reword and reorganize and edit out unnecesary words. Glad you notice and appreciate!
Thank you sir for your wonderful Readings!
You are so welcome!
Great Gil for this and the others. I dearly wish we still had sagas of the Saxons, angles, and Jutes.
Please more stories! This is fantastic.
Dude you do such a good job at this. I love these old saga's. Not modern movie has yet captured the stone realism of the Sagas.

Ulf are you doing your own translations? I've been reading this saga and I've noticed how much better your poetry is than this new translation lol
