Summary
The text of this edition comes from a late eighteenth century paper manuscript from the Chester H. Thordarson Collection in UW-Madison Memorial Library’s Special Collections (MS 140), and is thought to be in the hand of Jón Ólafsson of Svefneyjar (1731–1811), although this has not been confirmed. Its text is very close to that of AM 553d 4to, and may therefore be related to other paper manuscripts from the 17th and 18th centuries that descend ultimately from AM 160 fol.
