The drottkvett was a form of Old Norse skaldic poetry composed to glorify a chieftain's deeds or to lament his death. Kari Ellen Gade explores the structural peculiarities of ninth- and tenth-century drottkvett poetry and suggests a solution to the mystery of the origins of the drottkvett and its eventual demise in the fourteenth century.
Kari Ellen Gade, Professor in the Department of Germanic Studies at Indiana University, and translator, with Theodore M. Andersson, of Morkinskinna: The Earliest Icelandic Chronicle of the Norwegian Kings (1030-1157).
