Sörla þáttr
''Sörla þáttr eða Heðins saga ok Högna'' is a short narrative from the extended version ''Óláfs saga Tryggvasonar en mesta''〔The ''Younger Edda''. Rasmus B. Anderson transl. (1897) Chicago: Scott, Foresman & Co. (1901).〕 found in the ''Flateyjarbók'' manuscript,〔Lindow (2002:280-281).〕 which was written and compiled by two Christian priests, Jon Thordson and Magnus Thorhalson,〔Rasmus B. Anderson, Introduction to the ''The Flatey Book''. Norræna Society, London (1908). ''"The priest Jon Thordson wrote the story of Erik Vidforle and both the Olaf Sagas; but the priest Magnus Thorhalson wrote what follows and also what goes before, and revised the whole, thus dedicating the work: "May God Almighty and the Virgin Mary bless both the one that wrote and the one that dictated!"''〕 in the late 14th century. The narrative begins 24 years after the death of Fróði, and takes place in the 9th and the 10th centuries. It is a composite tale containing a story of how Freyja acquired a necklace from the Dwarves, how that led to a bloody war, and how Olaf Tryggvason brought peace to the land. The story parallels elements of earlier stories such as ''Heimskringla'' (euhemerization of gods), parts of the poem ''Lokasenna'' (Loki's accusation of Gefjun sleeping with a boy for a necklace), parts of the ''Húsdrápa'' poem (Loki stealing the necklace Brísingamen), and the eternal battle ''Hjaðningavíg'' (various earlier sources). In the end of the story, the arrival of Christianity dissolves the old curse that was traditionally to endure until Ragnarök. The story has been described as "post-classical" due to elements such as the descriptor of Loki as "cunning" without apparent irony, featuring Freyja and Loki as court retainers, and the open representation of Freyja's sexuality that it features.〔 19th century scholar Benjamin Thorpe referred to Freyja's role in the tale as "rather awkward".〔Thorpe (1866:63).〕 ==Synopsis==
