Grammaticus Saxo circa 1204 was a Danish writer who provided his
people with a History of the Danes. He tells the story of their
glorious past from the legendary kings and heroes of Denmark to the
historical present. In northern Europe this book is considered a
major account of the mythological traditions of the area. The
introductory material is a good source of information. The nine
books in this volume cover a wide range of topics. The book gives a
detailed commentary on the folklore and life and customs of
twelfth-century Denmark. Saxo is credited with the earliest account
of Hamlet
