' Puts to sleep all suits ' or ' stills all strifes ' may have been a late addition to the strophe Snorri cites, from which he derives the information.

" Davidson posits that Snorri may have " earlier turned the goddess of death into an allegorical figure, just as he made Hel, the underworld of shades, a place ' where wicked men go ,' like the Christian Hell ( Gylfaginning 3 ).

Rudolf Simek says that the etymology that Snorri presents in Gylfaginning for the name Gná may not be correct, yet it is unclear what the name may otherwise mean, though Gná has also been etymologically theorized as a " goddess of fullness.

Orchard theorizes that, otherwise, Snorri may have had access to a lost source, and that the little information Snorri presents may be derived from the meaning of her name.

" Egils saga " is an epic Icelandic saga possibly by Snorri Sturluson ( 1179-1241 CE ), who may have written it between the years 1220 and 1240 CE.

Rudolf Simek says that Snorri may have derived his etymology of Sjöfn from the Old Norse words sefi (" sense ") or from sefi ( possibly " relation "), but that the scant references to Sjöfn do not allow for much more of an elaborate explanation for the goddess.

According to Snorri, Tore may have left Norway for the Holy Lands, or he may have died.

The word was adopted into English in the nineteenth century from medieval Icelandic treatises on poetics, in particular the Prose Edda of Snorri Sturluson, and derives ultimately from the Old Norse verb kenna “ know, recognise ; perceive, feel ; show ; teach ; etc .”, as used in the expression kenna við “ to name after ; to express thing in terms of ”, “ name after ; refer to in terms of ”, and kenna til “ qualify by, make into a kenning by adding ”.

Snorri ’ s own usage, however, seems to fit the looser sense: “ Snorri uses the term " kenning " to refer to a structural device, whereby a person or object is indicated by a periphrastic description containing two or more terms ( which can be a noun with one or more dependent genitives or a compound noun or a combination of these two structures )” ( Faulkes ( 1998 a ), p. xxxiv ).
