Scholars have attempted to localize individual poems by studying the geography, flora, and fauna to which they refer. This approach usually does not yield firm results. For example, there are no wolves in
Iceland, but we can be sure that Icelandic poets were familiar with the species. Similarly, the

None of the poems are attributed to a particular author, though many of them show strong individual characteristics and are likely to have been the work of individual poets.

The problem of dating the poems is linked with the problem of determining where they were composed. Iceland was not settled until approximately 870, so anything composed before that time would necessarily have been elsewhere, most likely in

English translators are not consistent on the translations of the names of the Eddic poems or on how the Old Norse forms should be rendered in
English. Up to three translated titles are given below, taken from the translations of

Opinions differ on the best way to translate the text, on the use or rejection of archaic language, and the rendering of terms lacking a clear
English analogue. Still, Cottle's 1797 translation is now considered very inaccurate.

Accurate dating of the poems has long been a source of scholarly debate. Firm conclusions are difficult to reach; lines from the Eddic poems sometimes appear in poems by known poets. For example,
