dc.description.abstractThis article intends to prove that, contrary to what has been stated (Odenstedt 1994), the reports of Ohthere and Wulfstan in the Old English Orosius correspond, in fact, to two different original accounts. The linguistic differences between the texts (in spelling and morphology, as well as in the preference for certain syntactic constructions) can only be explained if we accept the traditional view that the texts come from two different sources. The prose pieces generally known as The Voyages of Ohthere and Wulfstan1 are interpolations in the Old English translation of Paulus Orosius’ Historiarum Adversum Paganos Libri-Septem, a history of the world written early in the 5th century. Since we know that the translation of Orosius into Old English was done on the initiative of King Alfred, the original work must have been written in the late 9th century. The value of the Orosius lies mainly in the fact that it is the only account of the Germanic nations written in the 9th century.es
