The Prose Edda, often known as the Younger Edda, is a compilation of Old Norse myths, stories, and poetic theories assembled in the 13th century by Icelandic scholar Snorri Sturluson. This book is a cornerstone of Norse mythology and offers vital insights into Viking Age cultural and religious ideas. The Prose Edda contains stories about Norse mythology's gods, giants, and heroes, as well as debates on the poetic styles and techniques utilised in ancient skaldic poetry. The Prose Edda, with its rich tales and lyrical lessons, provides a window into the vast fabric of the Viking culture, cosmology, and pantheon of deities, leaving an indelible mark on the study of mythology and literature.
