520 _a"Icelandic Primer with Grammar, Notes and Glossary" by Henry Sweet is a linguistic and educational resource written in the late 19th century. The primer serves as an introductory text for students wishing to learn Old Icelandic, providing insights into its grammar, phonetics, and vocabulary, alongside notable literary texts from the Icelandic tradition. The opening of the primer discusses the motivation and purpose behind its creation, highlighting the necessity for a straightforward guide to Icelandic studies, particularly for English students. Sweet elaborates on his approach to spelling, grammar, and the selection of texts while noting his sources of inspiration. He emphasizes the importance of presenting regular forms to beginners and mentions the inclusion of mythological tales and key poems to engage learners.
