Völsung Cycle : ウィキペディア英語版 | Völsung Cycle The Völsung Cycle is a series of legends in Norse mythology that were first recorded in medieval Iceland, but which were also known (as carvings show) in Sweden, Norway, England and (perhaps) the Isle of Man.〔Ronald Finch, ''The Saga of the Volsungs'' (1965) p. xiii〕 The original Icelandic tales were greatly expanded with native Scandinavian folklore, including that of Helgi Hundingsbane,〔W. Faraday, ''The Edda Vol II'' (2014) np〕 which, in turn, originally appears to have been a separate tradition the Ylfings. Mythological material in this cycle of some twenty Edda poems includes the ''Völsunga saga'' and the tale of the Otter's Ransom, and covers much of the same subject matter as the Middle High German epic poem ''Nibelungenlied''.〔E. Sykes/A. Kendall, ''Who's Who in Non-Classical Mythology'' (2014) p. 208〕 ==Contemporary English influence== Material from the cycle was translated into English by such figures as Andrew Lang and Edward Thomas,〔M. Atherton, ''There and Back Again'' (2012) p. 40 and p. 62〕 and had a significant impact on the thought and writings of the Inklings.〔H. Carpenter, ''J. R. R. Tolkien'' (2002) p. 70 and p. 194〕
