(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Excerpt from The Home of the Eddic Poems: With Especial Reference to the Helgi-Lays It was during the winter of 1896-1897, which I had the pleasure of spending in Christiania that Professor Bugge suggested my preparing an English edition of his Helge-Digtene i den Eldre Edda Deres Hjetn og Forbindelser which had appeared but a few months before. I accepted his suggestion readily; and, Mr. Alfred Nutt having expressed his willingness to publish the book because of his personal interest in the subject, I began to work on the translation at once, that I might have the benefit of the authors counsel in matters about which I was myself uncertain, or with regard to which changes might seem advisable. Such counsel was always freely given, and the translation advanced rapidly; so that before I left for Copenhagen in the spring a first draft of the book was finished, and had been examined by the author. Since then, this draft has been carefully revised; and, while the book has been in the press, three persons have each read the proof two or three times. It is hoped, therefore, that the number of misprints which may be discovered in the text will be inconsiderable.

Excerpt from Das Verhältnis der Etrusker zu den Indogermanen und der Vorgriechischen Bevölkerung Kleinasiens und Griechenlands: Sprachliche Untersuchungen Die vorliegende Arbeit war bei dem Tode des Verfassers nicht ganz zum Abschluß gelangt. Bei erneuter Durchsicht würde er wohl manches anders ausgedruckt oder dargestellt haben. Meine Arbeit mit der Herausgabe bestand wesentlich im Anordnen der einzelnen Teile und im Ausscheiden solcher Einzelheiten von denen ich annehmen diirfte, daß der Ver fasser sie bei der abschließenden Überarbeitung entweder um gearbeitet oder fortgelassen haben würde. Einige wenige Artikel habe ich nach Notizen des Verfassers herstellen müssen. Im übrigen habe ich in der Ausdrucksweise und der sprachlichen Form nur wenige Veranderungen vorzunehmen gewagt, und es vorgezogen, die hinterlassene Arbeit des hingeschiedenen Forschers in der ursprunglichen, wenn auch unfertigen Form erscheinen zu lassen.

Sophus Bugge was born at Larvik, Norway, on the 5th of January 1833.
He was educated at Christiania, Copenhagen and Berlin. He was made honorary doctor at Uppsala University in 1877.
In 1866 he became professor of comparative philology and Old Norse at Christiania University. He collected Norwegian folk-songs and traditions, and wrote on Runic inscriptions. He was the author of a very large number of books on philology and folklore. His principal work, a critical edition of the elder Edda (Norroen Fornkvoedi), was published at Christiania in 1867.
His writings also include Gamle Norske Folkeviser (1858), a collection of Old Norse folk-songs; Bidrag til den aeldste skaldedigtnings historie (Christiania, 1894); Helge-digtene i den Aeldre Edda (Copenhagen, 1896, Eng. trans. , The Home of the Eddic Poems, 1899); Norsk Sagafortaelling op Sagaskrivning i Island (Christiania, 1901), and various books on Runic inscriptions.
He died on the 8th of July 1907.
Bugge made considerable contributions to the study of the Celtic, Romance, Oscan, Umbrian and Etruscan languages. He is known for his theories that the songs of the Edda and the earlier sagas were largely founded on Christian and Latin tradition imported into Scandinavian literature by way of England. He was a vice president of the Norwegian Academy of Science from 1884. He was appointed a Knight of the Royal Norwegian Order of St. Olav in 1877, Commander Grand Cross 1890 and 1896.
