Über das Buch

William Morris's «The Story of Sigurd the Volsung» is a masterful retelling of the legendary Norse tale, infused with Morris's characteristic poetic language and deep appreciation for mythology. Set against the backdrop of the rich Scandinavian lore, the narrative unfurls the epic saga of Sigurd, the dragon-slayer, exploring themes of bravery, betrayal, and the tragic consequences of fate. Morris's prose is lyrical and evocative, reflecting influences from Medieval English literature while also drawing upon the sagas and Eddas of Norse tradition, making it a significant contribution to the revival of interest in ancient mythologies during the 19th century. Morris, a key figure in the Arts and Crafts movement, was deeply invested in the intersection of art, literature, and society. His fascination with the Viking Age and its storytelling traditions stemmed from a desire to counter the industrialization of his contemporary world, seeking a return to craftsmanship and myth. This blend of political sentiment and artistic ethos propelled him to reinvigorate ancient narratives, allowing them to resonate with the concerns of his own time. This book is highly recommended for readers who appreciate societal critique framed within the context of timeless storytelling. Through Morris's lens, the ancient tale of Sigurd is not merely a historical account but a reflection of human nature, making it relevant and compelling for modern audiences.
