Two collections of early Icelandic literature that together constitute our chief source for Old Norse mythology. The term strictly applies to the Younger or Prose Edda, compiled by Snorri Sturluson, a priest, in about AD 1230.
The Elder or Poetic Edda is the collection of poems discovered around 1643 by Brynjólfr Sveinsson, written by unknown Norwegian poets of the 9th to 12th centuries.
