Written by a professor with years of experience teaching Old Norse and Icelandic, this user-friendly 3rd edition assumes no previous language training. Beginner to advanced has everything in one book: graded saga readings, vocabulary, grammar exercises, runes, and pronunciation. There are maps and sections on Viking history, literature, and myth. We have listened carefully to the many suggestions of teachers, students, and self-learners who used the earlier editions, and we thank all those who sent us comments. In response, we re-organized the book, shortened the lessons, and rewrote individual grammar and pronunciation sections. The new short, focused lessons with streamlined explanations and an innovative word-frequency method speeds learning. You quickly learn to read original saga passages and Viking-Age runes from Iceland, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Modern Icelandic has changed relatively little from Old Norse, and the learner is well on the way to mastering Modern Icelandic.
