Þorláks saga helga (the saga of St Þorlákr) is a saga about Saint Þorlákr Þórhallsson (1133–93) and the main source of evidence for his life. ==Versions and attestations== The earliest fragment of the saga is in Latin, surviving most importantly in AM 386 4to, whose first half seems, to judge by the script, to be from around 1200. This version was probably composed in association with the translation of Þorlákr's relics by his successor Páll Jónsson.〔Paul Bibire, 'Þorláks saga helga', in ''Medieval Scandinavia: An Encyclopedia'', ed. by Philip Pulsiano (New York: Garland, 1993), p. 671.〕 The saga then survives in Old Norse in four related medieval versions, with the following primary manuscripts: * 1: Stockholm Perg. fol. 5 (mid C14) * 2: AM 382 4to (first half of C14) * 3: AM 209 fol. (C17); AM 219 fol. (end of C14); AM 379-80 4to (C17); AM 383 III-IV 4to (early C15); AM 388 4to (C17) * 4: AM 383 I 4to (mid-C13, fragment only) The material in these also overlaps with material in a number of miracle books.〔Paul Bibire, 'Þorláks saga helga', in ''Medieval Scandinavia: An Encyclopedia'', ed. by Philip Pulsiano (New York: Garland, 1993), p. 671.〕 It is thought that we owe the vernacular saga to the same person who composed ''Hungrvaka'' and ''Páls saga biskups'', working in the first couple of decades of the thirteenth century. His work is perhaps most closely represented by the surviving version (1). Versions (2) and (3) would represent partly independent redactions, each with its own omissions and additions, but both (2) and (3) share a long additional section, called the ''Oddaverja þáttr'', which is about the disputes between Þorlákr and the secular aristocrat ''Jón Loptsson'' (father of Bishop Páll Jónsson).〔Paul Bibire, 'Þorláks saga helga', in ''Medieval Scandinavia: An Encyclopedia'', ed. by Philip Pulsiano (New York: Garland, 1993), p. 671.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Þorláks saga helga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
