Hi Tatyana and everyone!
I'm new to the list, but not to the language. I've studied Old Icelandic
under Professor Margaret Clunies-Ross for two years at the University of
Sydney. I'm currently working on a translation of Ála flekks saga. I'm fairly
certain that it hasn't been translated into English, but does anyone know if
it has?
Also, Tatyana, after a fairly thorough net search, the only reference I can
find to Eiriks saga vidforla is this: "Helle Jensen: Eiriks saga vidforla.
1983." Although I suspect it may be in Danish, this shouldn't be too much of
a problem, since if you know a good bit of ON and English, then Danish isn't
too hard to read.
Hope this is of some help...
