	Flatey Freyr


A jar that used to contain pure Pacific honey is
filled with words–sacrifices on the remote and almost deserted island of
Flatey, west of Iceland. Witnessed by the ocean, the wind, a few birds and a
wooden sculpture of the Germanic god Freyr, what emerges is a strange and
beautiful poem on fertility and decay.



Acknowledged by
Milan Kundera as one Europe’s major novelists, with the novel Tómas Jónsson metsölubók (1966),
Guðbergur Bergsson secured his place as one of the chief modernists in
Icelandic literature and, simultaneously, as one of the leading inheritors of
the modern Icelandic literature of Halldór Laxness, Þórbergur Þórðarson and
Gunnar Gunnarsson. His works have been widely translated, including the novel Svanurinn (The Swan). Guðbergur is also a much respected translator of world
literature, and has enriched Icelandic culture with timeless masterpieces like
Cervantes’ Don Quixote. Guðbergur has
received several major prizes, including the Nordic Prize of the Swedish
Academy in 2004, and the Spanish Royal Cross (Order ode Merito cibil) in 2010.
In 2018, Lytton Smith’s Tomas Jonsson,
Bestseller, the English translation of Tómas
Jónsson, metsölubók, was nominated for the Best Translated Book Award
(BTBA).

	Sunshine Children


Í október árið 1915 hóf íslenska dagblaðið Lögberg í Winnipeg útgáfu á sérblaðinu Sólskin sem ætlað var börnum íslenskra innflytjenda í Vesturheimi. Börnin fóru ekki varhluta af útgáfunni og ekki leið á löngu bar til þau mynduðu með sér leshring. Um það vitna fjölmörg bréf sem dagblaðið birti í nafni Sólskinsbarna. Bréfin eru flest skrifuð á íslensku og veita djúpstæða innsýn í daglegt líf og kringumstæður íslenskra innflytjenda Norõur Ameríku á
fyrstu áratugum tuttugustu alda. Börnin skrifa einnig um samfélagsleg og menningarpólitísk málefni, meðal annars áhrif fyrri heimsstyrjaldar á líf fólks og albjóðlega baráttu fyrir kvenfrelsi. Staða íslenskunnar í úthafi enskunnar er þeim einnig hugleikin og í því efni fengu þau meðal annars hvatningu frá börnum á gamla landinu en Halldór Laxness, ungur að árum, birti bréf í Sólskini. Ef frá er talin mikilvæg grein Dagnýjar Kristjánsdóttur í Ritinu um barnablöðin í Vesturheimi, hafa bréf Sólskinsbarna legið meira og minna óbætt hjá garði. Bókin um Sólskinsbörnin byggir á rækilegri rannsókn Christophers Crocker á þessari einstöku heimild og varpar ljósi á lífsreynslu og kringumstæður barna íslenskra vesturfara. Birna Bjarnadóttir ritar formála og er ritstjóri bókarinnar. Sjóður Páls Guðmundssonar fr Rjúpnafelli í vörslu HÍ styrkti útgáfuna. &#38;nbsp;

Christopher W. E. Crocker er fræðimaður á sviði íslenskra bókmennta og hefur birt rannsóknir sínar í tímaritum og greinasöfnum. Hann vinnur einnig sem þýðandi og fyrir utan þýðingu sína á umfangsmiklu safni bréfa Sólskinsbarna sem nálgast má á vefnum í opnu aðgangi:&#38;nbsp;https://pressbooks.openedmb.ca/solskinletters/hefur, hefur hann birt þýðingar sínar á verku Jóns Thoroddsen, Theodóru Thoroddsen og Guttorms J. Guttormssonar.

English
The children’s newspaper Sólskin (Eng. Sunshine) first appeared as a part of the North American-Icelandic newspaper Lögberg in October 1915. The paper’s target audience, the so-called Sólskinsbörn (Eng. Sunshine children), consisted of children of Icelandic descent living in North America. Sólskin functioned as a source of entertainment, education, and news, but also aspired to preserve community bonds, a sense of Icelandic cultural identity, and Icelandic language proficiency among the North American-Icelandic community’s youngest generation. To this end, in addition to its adult-authored content, the paper provided a venue for children to express themselves by printing numerous letters to the editor. Through their letters, which are the focus of this book, the Sunshine children explored, fashioned, and performed different aspects of their lives and their shared North American-Icelandic cultural identity. Collectively, the letters of the Sunshine children offer vital insight toward the question of what it meant to be a part of the North American-Icelandic community in the early part of the twentieth century. The book is edited by Birna Bjarnadóttir, who also writes the Foreword.

Christopher Crocker is a scholar of medieval and modern Icelandic literature whose research has appeared in numerous journals and edited collections. He is co-editor of Cultural Legacies of Old Norse Literature (Boydell &#38;amp; Brewer, 2022) and author of The Sunshine Children (Hin kindin, 2023). He also works as a translator and has published translations or co-translations of works by Guttormur J. Guttormsson, Jón Thoroddsen, Theodóra Thoroddsen, and a large collection of letters published in the North American-Icelandic children's newspaper Sólskin.

	Caminos Stígar



Caminos (Stígar) er tvímála útgáfa (íslenska og spænska) á ljóðabókinni Stígar (2001)
eftir Guðberg Bergsson. Sköpunarverk Guðbergs spannar óravítt svið skáldskapar,
þýðinga, fagurfræði, gagnrýni, listfræði og pistla. Hann er einn helsti módernisti
íslenskra frásagnarbókmennta og jafnframt einn helsti arftaki Halldórs Laxness,
Þórbergs Þórðarsonar og Gunnars Gunnarssonar í íslenskum nútímabókmenntum. Skáldverk
Guðbergs hafa verið þýdd á mörg tungumál. Hann er einnig mikilsvirtur þýðandi spænskra,
portúgalskra og rómansk-amerískra bókmennta og með þýðingum sínum hefur hann
auðgað íslenska menningu með tímalausum verkum eins og Don Kíkóta eftir
Cervantes og Plateró og ég eftir Juan Ramon Jimenez. Guðbergur
hefur hlotið fjölda viðurkenninga, meðal annars riddarakross hinnar íslensku
fálkaorðu árið 1994, Nordiska Pris sænsku akademíunnar árið 2004 og Orden de
Isabel la Católica árið 2007. Árið 2013 sæmdi Deild Mála- og menningar við
Háskóla Íslands Guðberg heiðursdoktorsnafnbót fyrir ævistarf hans sem rithöfundar
og þýðanda og fyrir framlag hans til íslenskra bókmennta og menningarlífs.



Þýðandinn Rafael García Pérez er doktor í textafræði frá
háskólanum í Salamanca og í málfræði frá háskólanum Paris 13. Áður en hann hlaut fastráðningu sem kennari við Carlos
III háskólann í Madríd, kenndi hann við Háskóla Íslands og háskólana Paris 13 og Paris 7. Í heimi málvísinda hefur hann sérstakan áhuga á norrænum
tungumálum og bjó á Íslandi um skeið. Hann hefur kennt íslensku við Carlos III
háskólann í Madríd, gefið út fræðigreinar um nútímaíslensku og skrifað fyrstu
íslensku málfræðibókina sem er sérstaklega ætluð spænskumælandi einstaklingum (Gramática del islandés contemporáneo,
2013). Rafael hefur einnig unnið að kynningu á norrænni menningu á Spáni, þökk
sé þýðingum hans á íslenskum bókmenntum. Hann hefur þýtt bæði íslenskrar fornbókmenntir
og nútímabókmenntir, meðal annars Völuspá.
(Völuspá. La profecía de la vidente, Miraguano, 2014), Laxdælasögu (Saga del Valle
de los Salmones, Miraguano, 2016), ljóðabókina Svartur hestur í myrkrinu eftir Nínu Björk Árnadóttur (Caballo negro en la oscuridad,
Torremozas, 2018), og ljóðabókina Blóðhófnir eftir Gerði Kristnýju (Cascos sangrientos Torremozas, 2020).

translated. He is also a much respected translator of Spanish, Portuguese, and
Latin American literature. With his translations he has enriched Icelandic
culture with timeless classics like Cervantes’ Don Quixote and Juan Ramon Jimenez’s Platero and I. Guðbergur
has received numerous awards and recognitions, including the Swedish Academy
Nordic Prize in 2004, the Orden de Isabel la
Católica in 2007 and the Spanish Royal Cross (Orden del Mérito Civil) in 2010.

	Aldinmaukið hefur klárast.&#38;nbsp;
Hræðileg barnasaga



















Fjórir táningar og hundur fara saman í
útilegu. Dularfull mál svífa yfir vötnum, draugalestir, njósnarar og
grunsamlega ríkir bændur. Sagan er kunnugleg — en táningar eru ekki lengur eins
og þeir voru eða voru ef til vill aðeins í bókum. 



















Gríma Kamban er enginn nýgræðingur í
skáldskap en kemur nú í fyrsta sinn fram undir því heiti. Hún sækist hvorki
eftir heiðri né frægð og trúir á dauða höfundarins sem nauðsynlega forsendu
fyrir fæðingu lesandans. Sérgrein Grímu er paródían og Aldinmaukið hefur klárast er verk af því tagi, eins konar uppgjör
við æsku Grímu sjálfrar og bókmenntir hennar.

	Two Lands, One Poet





















Tvímála útgáfa (íslenska og enska) á ljóðasafni
eftir Stephan G. Stephansson (1853‒1927), eitt af lykilskáldum íslensk-kanadískra
bókmennta. Stephan G. fæddist og ólst upp í Skagafirði. Hann sigldi með
foreldrum sínum vestur um haf árið 1873, nam land í Wisconsin og Dakota og
festi síðan rætur í Markerville, Alberta, þar sem hann bjó með fjölskyldu sinni
til dauðadags. Þar helgaði Stephan G. sig bústörfum og skáldskap og kenndi jafnframt
sjálfum sér að rata í hugmyndaheimi nútímans. Ef marka má Halldór Laxness, var
Stephan G. Stephansson einn efldasti andi síns tíma.



Enski
hluti bókarinnar geymir sögulegt yfirlit yfir glímu
þýðenda beggja vegna hafs við ljóð Klettaskáldsins, meðal annars þeirra Bernards
Scudders (1954‒2007), Viðars Hreinssonar, Kristjönu Gunnars, Finnboga
Guðmundssonar (1924‒2011) og Jakobínu Johnson (1883‒1977). Formála skrifar Jón
Atli Benediktsson, rektor Háskóla Íslands, og ritstjórar bókarinnar eru Birna
Bjarnadóttir, Stephans G. Stephanssonar rannsóknarlektor við Háskóla Íslands og
kanadíski rithöfundurinn Mooréa Gray. Allur ágóði af sölu bókarinnar rennur í
styrktarsjóð í nafni Stephans G. Stephanssonar sem er í vörslu Háskóla Íslands.

He was a pioneer in Wisconsin and Dakota Territories until 1889 when he homesteaded in Alberta. He wrote his poetry only in Icelandic. According to Halldór Laxness, Stephan G. Stephansson was one of the post powerful spirits of modernity.&#38;nbsp;&#38;nbsp;

Stephansson features the original poems in Icelandic and existing English translations by several translators, including Bernard Scudder (1954‒2007), Viðars Hreinsson, Kristjana Gunnars, Finnbogi Guðmundsson (1924‒2011) and Jakobína Johnson (1883‒1977).

Rigmarole and Flies er fyrsta enska þýðingin á Þulum Theodóru Thoroddsen og Flugum Jóns Thoroddsen. Þulur (1916) Theodóru Thoroddsen hafa
fyrir löngu fest sig í sessi í íslenskum bókmenntum og menningu. Hinn
enskumælandi heimur fær nú loks tækifæri til að kynna sér fegurð þeirra og
hvernig þær sameina hefðbundna þræði og nýrómantík í íslenskri ljóðagerð.
Tjáning Theodóru á einstaklingsbundnum slagkrafti innra lífsins mun jafnframt
vekja athygli lesenda, en öðrum þræði má lesa bókina Þulur sem byltingarkennda ljóðagerð. Flugur Jóns komu út árið 1922, ekki löngu fyrir ótímabært andlát
hans í Kaupmannahöfn. Hér er á ferð fyrsta ljóðabókin á íslensku í óbundnu máli
og sem slík markar hún þáttaskil í sögu íslenskrar ljóðagerðar. Hún gefur
jafnframt fyrirheit um landnám módernisma í íslenskum bókmenntum, þökk sé
efninu sem vekur í senn tilfinningu fyrir hálum stígum tungumáls og tilvistar.
Í sameiningu gefa Þulur og Flugur lesendum sínum tækifæri til að
skynja einstakt framlag beggja höfunda til íslenskra bókmennta og ríkulegrar
sögu þeirra.

English&#38;nbsp;
Rigmarole and
Flies is the first English translation of Þulur (1916) by Theodóra Thoroddsen and Flugur (1922) by Jón Thoroddsen. In her RigmaroleTheodóra Thoroddsen rejuvenated an important traditional Icelandic verse
form. Bearing qualities similar to those often associated with nursery rhymes,
her poems blend folk stories and pastoral imagery using economic yet unruly and
fresh metrical forms. They are, however, also essentially rebellious, focusing
on unfulfilled desires and longings that achieve release in fantasy. Her son Jón Thoroddsen’s Flies, published a few
years before his untimely death, has been considered the first collection of
prose poems published in Icelandic. Seen as a profound departure from Icelandic
poetic traditions, his poems can be regarded as a precursor to Icelandic
modernism, addressing the ambiguities inherent in language and life itself.
Together they offer an opportunity to appreciate more fully each poet’s unique
contribution to the vast and varied history of Icelandic literature.



 Ármann Jakobsson,
writer and professor at the University of Iceland, writes the foreword, and
Christopher Crocker, the translator, the introduction. Christopher completed a PhD in
medieval Icelandic literature at the University of Iceland in 2016. He has
since worked as an instructor at both the University of Manitoba and the
University of Winnipeg and as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of
Iceland. His research on medieval Icelandic culture and literature has appeared
in a variety of academic journals and edited collections, and with Elin
Thordarason, he translated Ten Plays – Tíu leikrit (2015) by the Icelandic-Canadian poet and playwright Guttormur J. Guttormsson.

The Seven Teachings 
And More








































From Peter Kulchyski’s “Foreword”
“I thank Björk Bjarnadóttir for
working so hard for so many years on this book. I thank her because in reading
it I can, sometimes, almost hear
Garry´s voice. His gentleness. His soft determination. His Patience. He was a teacher and it would
have made him happy to know that someone labored so hard to make sure his words
and teachings were recorded and documented in a way that will allow people from
the four directions to learn from them. He was never one to want to force feed
anyone, but he would be happy to know that those who seek will have the answers
he found, through his understanding of the traditions of his people, as a
source of guidance”.
