"The Prose Edda: Tales from Norse Mythology" by Snorri Sturluson is a foundational text of Norse mythology, providing a rich tapestry of stories about gods, giants, and heroic figures. It is divided into several parts, including the Gylfaginning, which narrates the creation of the world and the origins of the Norse pantheon, and the Skáldskaparmál, which delves into the art of poetry using mythological references. Through astounding tales of Odin, Thor, Loki, and others, the Prose Edda not only preserves ancient myths but also serves as a vital source for understanding Viking culture and beliefs, illuminating their views on fate, heroism, and the cosmos.
