Transcriber’s note
Words in italics were surrounded with _underscores_, and small capitals
changed to all capitals.
Anchors for notes 37 and 42 were missing in the original, they were
added. Notes 111, 112 and 113 also had no anchors in the original, they
were referred to in other notes. The notes were moved to directly after
the paragraph with the corresponding anchor.
“Völsungasaga” and “Sinfjötli” were in the original mostly written with
a little c under the o, and a few times with a plain o. For reader’s
convenience this has been changed and standardised to the more common
spelling with ö.
Some punctuation was corrected and a few missing spaces added. In note
12 “and” was changed to “und” (seltener in Frankreich und Belgien).
Otherwise the original was preserved, including possible errors and
missing capitalisation in quotes from German sources, and inconsistent
spelling, for example the word Berserkr, Berserker or Berserkir.
