Sinopsis

A sweeping doorway into a distant world, The Danish History, Books I-IX invites you to walk alongside the early kings and chroniclers who shaped a shoreline of myths and reality.This restored edition presents Saxo Grammaticus?s legendary medieval history in a translated form that remains immediate and thrilling today. It is more than a historical chronicle, it is a crafted narrative of danish kingdoms history, of rival crowns and political intrigue, and of the bustling life of early scandinavian history. For students and for researchers, the work offers a rare bridge between ancient saga and documentary record, a window into viking age literature and the classic european chronicles that informed generations.The book?s literary and historical significance endures: it testifies to a lineage of storytelling that fed Europe?s imagination while shaping how we understand medieval denmark and the broader scandinavian europe. This edition is designed for today?s readers-clear, inspiring, and accessible-while honouring the reverence of the source. It speaks to casual readers drawn by myth and history alike, and to classic-literature collectors seeking a culturally resonant treasure. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it has been restored for today?s and future generations. More than a reprint, it is a collector?s item and a cultural treasure that preserves a cornerstone of northern chronicles for all time.
