The Story of Sigurd the Volsung and the Fall of the Niblungs
1876
The Story of Sigurd the Volsung and the Fall of the Niblungs, published in 1876 by William Morris, is an epic poem of over 10,000 lines inspired by Norse mythology. It recounts the tragic tale of the Volsung clan, focusing on the hero Sigurd and the themes of fate, honor, and vengeance. Drawing from the Volsunga Saga and the Elder Edda, the poem explores the consequences of betrayal and the supernatural, making it a significant work in the fantasy genre. Although it has received critical acclaim, its archaic language has limited its readership.
