In this episode we’ll be reading three selections from Norse Tales for the Use of Children by Sir George Webbe Dasent, originally published in 1862. Dasent, born in the British West Indies and educated in London, became a scholar of Scandinavian stories after moving to Stockholm in 1840. He had a particularly strong interest in Icelandic culture and translated many works from Icelandic to English.
