Hulda. Iceland, s. XIV 3/4. Icelandic

[The Sagas of the kings of Norway in the version known as Hulda goes up to and includes Magnúss saga Erlingssonar. It covers the time between 1035 and 1117, from the adolescence of Magnus the Good to the battle of Re. Because of a lost gathering in the beginning of the manuscript, the writing starts on the 16th chapter of Magnúss saga góða. According to Árni Magnússon this manuscript received the name Hulda (the hidden one) in Borgarfjörður, where in the 1660's it was loaned secretly from farm to farm without the owner's permission or knowledge.]

Physical Description

Form: Codex.

Support: Parchment.

Extent: 142. 269 x 185 x mm

Collation: The collation is as follows

• I: ff. 2-11 (10 leaves), both ff. 2 and 11 are now loose, quite obviously they were originally a conjoint pair.
• II-XVI: each gathering consists of 8 leaves each.
• XVII: a gathering of 11 leaves, the first of which (f. 132) is separate; ff. 135 and 140 presumably originally were conjoint are now detached from each other.

Layout: The manuscript is written in long lines with 33 lines per page, f. 112v makes an exception with its 32 lines.

Script: With the exception of two lines at the bottom of f. 51v, the manuscript is written in one Icelandic gothic bookhand throughout. It is a regular hand and the orthography is exceptionally consistent. The two last lines of f. 51 v were written in a hand not much later than the main hand. The scribe has been identified as the Priest Magnúss Þórhallsson, one of the two scribes of Flateyarbók.

Decoration: The initials are either red with blue-green ornament or blue-green with red ornament, these colours are very faded in comparison with the black ink which is used for writing. The rubrics are also faded.

Binding Description: The manuscript is bound in medieval wooden boards, with the spine uncovered. In the covers near the spine there are double rows of holes, through which cords are drawn from cover to cover and fixed with pegs in the innermost holes on each side. Each of the book's gatherings is fastened separately to these transverse cords with consecutive stitching lengthwise, which, by crossing over from one gather to another, also serves to fasten one gathering to the next at top and bottom. The front perm seems to be oak; the back, which is less skilfully made, is of beechwood.

Foliation: ff. 2-142 are provided with a double foliation on the upper right-hand corner of the recto-pages: a foliation in black ink going from 1 to 139 because two leaves have been numbered 117, and a foliation in red ink made by Kristian Kålund from 2 to 141, the fly-leaves bearing the numbers 1 and 142. In addition an older, incomplete foliation is found on the verso-side of each twentieth leaf up to f.80 (in Kålunds foliation f. 81).

Additions: There are quite a lot of marginal notes in the manuscript, but a large number of them are wholly or partly illegible. Nearly all the remaining marginal notes seems to come from the 17th century, and a large amount of the notes consist of personal names. Some of the marginal notes have connections with the text in various ways.

• A large irregular 17th century hand has added a series of headings over individual þættir.
• The same person has written in the margin of fol. 86r:þesse þättur öskrifadur og allt hier efter.

• (94r): :Anno 1107 for Sigurdur kongur til Jorsala
• 119r:Anno 1156 töku Sigurdur og Jnnge ryke

• Eiginn hand
• and haffa ffleire
• in the upper left-hand corner is a list of Norwegian kings in the same hand as
• the historical survey on (f. 141v): :Suerrer kongur hann var son Sygurdar kongs haralldz sonar Magnus kongs berfættz Olafs sonur haralldz sonar Gullkambs Sygurdar sonar Syrs haldanar sonar hrijsa Sygurdar sonar. haralldz sonar harfaga sygurdar sonar hiartar

Condition: The manuscript is in a rather poor condition, not merely because of the wearing and darkening of the parchment, but also because of attacks of damp and rot. These have caused the crumbling away of considerable portions, especially along the spine, and the complete or defacing of some of the writing by white spots. A result of this, too, ff. 135 and 140 originally a conjoint pair, are now separate, and the two innermost pairs in the last gathering, 136-139, are only just connected. In order to repair this decay, parchment strips were sewn to the back of the last gathering, and either at the same time or later the text was filled in by writing on these strips or in the margin. Before f. 2 there is a lacuna that seems to have consisted of 6 leaves. Fol. 2v is almost illegible because of wear.

History

Origin: The manuscript is written in Eyjafjörður, Iceland. The manuscript has been dated twice: Kristian Kålund dates Hulda to s. XIV, but Jonna Louis-Jensen dates the manuscript to s. XIV 3/4.

Provenance: The first owner of the codex has written on f. 5v: Einar oss son a mig seier her. This man probably was Einar Oddsson of Hof in Vatnsdalur, who was sýslumaður for Húnavatnssýsla around 1500. Árni Magnússon has made different records of the owners of Hulda in AM 435a 4to, f. 42v. According to these the lawman Gísli Þórðarson once owned the book (c. 1600). Jón Steindórsson and his father Steindór Gíslason are supposed to have owned the book too. Later the codex belonged to the sýslumaðurBjárni Pétursson of Staðarhóll and Hákon Árnason of Vatnshorn, whose son Árni Hákonarson had got the book from him in Norway being an assistant at Torfæus. He sold it to Árni Magnússon in 1687. On f. 42v are 12 lines belonging to the original list of manuscripts. The text reads:Noregs konunga Sỏgur, (incipere debent in Jarozlao Russiæ Rege). Folio minori. bokina hefi eg fenged af Arna Hakonarsyne, enn hann af fỏdur sinum, Hakoni Arnasyne ä Vatzhorne. Hakon eignadizt hana (sem mier er sagt) fra Stadarhöle. A Spatiunne stendr i einum stad: Jon Steinþorson 1624. þessa bok kỏlludu þeir i Borgarfirde fyrrum Huldu.Ff. 47r-52r contain further information on the manuscript, principally its previous owners and copies made of it. The first two leaves are in 4to, the last four in 8vo. The sentences in brackets] are footnotes written at the same time as the rest: Noregs konunga Sỏgurnar (Huldu) feck Hakon Arnason ä Vatzhorne, til eignar frä Stadarhole.
