The Saga Of Wordeatgandr

By: Bryan Ricardo Marini Quintana

The Saga of Wordeatgandr (English)

Have you ever struggled with writer’s block while composing your next story?

Then you’ve been visited by a dreaded snake, feared by all seafaring skalds, who slithers into their minds to rob them of their verses.

This is none other than Orðetagandr (Wordeatgandr), the Midgard Serpent’s Brother!

The Saga Of Orðetagandr

By: Bryan Ricardo Marini Quintana

Today, I can finally share my small collaboration through a poem with the New Student Lead Philology Magazine (@eldesvandelosociosos) from the University of Santiago de Compostela!

If you’re on campus, be on the lookout for their first issue!

The Saga Of Orðetagandr (Dual-Language Version in English and Old Icelandic)

If you’ve ever suffered from writer’s block or suddenly lost inspiration while composing your story, then perhaps Wordeatgandr slithered into your dreams and devoured your ideas!

Original Manuscript: (Margrétar Saga, AM 431 12mo, 1540-1560)
