Þorleifr jarlsskáld

Þorleifr jarlsskáld

Þorleifr Rauðfeldarson or Þorleifr jarlsskáld ("Poet of the Earl") was an Icelandic skald. He was one of the court poets of Hákon Sigurðarson, though only a couple of his verses on the ruler have come down to us. The following is quoted in Heimskringla.

Þorleifr is the protagonist of "Þorleifs þáttr", a largely fictional work. He also has a role in "Svarfdœla saga" where some "lausavísur" are attributed to him.
