Summary
The article opens with a clarification of the title:
How much is "nonnulla"? In the preface to liis
Latin History of lcelandic literature, Sciagraphia
historíæ literaríæ Islandicæ (Copenhagen 1777),
Hálfdan Einarsson (1732-85) says that he owes
"not nothing" (nonnulla in Latin) to a hiogra-
phical register of Icelandic poets and writers of
the 16th and 17th centuries by Páll Vídalín
(1667-1727), another worlc written in Latin
around the year 1700 under the title Recensus
poetarum et scriptorum Islandorum huius et
superioris seculi. The original manuscript of the
latter text seems lost, but an excerpt is extant in
the hand of Einarsson lrimself (JS 569 4to) along
witli a loose Icelandic translation that exists in
two versions (MS Bor. 66 and JS 30 4to) by Rev.
Þorsteinn Pétursson of Staðarbakld (1710-85).
These two texts, the excerpt and tlie translation,
were edited by Jón Samsonarson and published
by the Arnamagnæan Institute (Reykjavík 1985).
Tlie article studies how Einarsson presents
Vídalín on tlie pages of liis literary history, and
how much material lie uses from tlie other's
biographical register. Tlie general purpose is to
investigate and explain more fully than has been
done previously the precise relationsliip and, by
comparison, the distinct qualities of these two
