May. 9th, 2010 11:03 pmI haven't really had anything better to do that translate some tales. It's not really very productive but at least it doesn't make me feel completely useless.
I'm still working my way north from the southernmost parts of Sweden. Some day I'll probably make a post collecting all the sägner, but so far it's just something I do when I feel like it. I'm not really trying to achieve anything; picking one tale from each province is more of a guideline I use than an attempt at some kind of structure.
And difference from before is, that I now use another source for the tales I translate. The old book was borrowed from the library and so this one is a bit more recent: Svenska Folksägner by Bengt af Klintberg. Here the tales are a bit shorter, but there's also greater variation on many different subjects.
