The Eddas are two primary sources of Norse mythology and poetry: the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda. The Poetic Edda is a collection of Old Norse poems from the medieval manuscript Codex Regius, containing mythological and heroic tales. The Prose Edda, written by Snorri Sturluson in the 13th century, serves as a manual for poets and includes stories about gods, creation, and the Norse cosmos. Together, they provide crucial insights into ancient Norse beliefs and culture.
