Einar Snorrason (died 1538), called Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lit), was a 16th-century Icelandic priest and poet whose family played a significant role in the Icelandic Reformation.

Although definitive records do not exist, Einar is believed to be the son of a farmer, Snorra Sveinssonar, and born in Miklaholtshrepur in northwest Iceland. It is recorded that in 1497 Einar was ordained as a priest and settled at Stað á Ölduhrygg. He became a well known enough poet for Bishop Jón Arason to refer to him the greatest living poet in the west of Iceland, however none of his work remains.[1]Шаблон:Efn

Einar's companion was Guðrún Oddsdóttir, the niece of Шаблон:Ill, the Bishop of Skálholt. Their sons were Шаблон:Ill and Brandur Einarsson, known as Gleraugna-Pétur and Moldar-Brandur respectively; both became sheriffs. He also had at least two children with Ingiríði Jónsdóttur, a sister of Bishop Stefán Jónsson. Their son, Marteinn Einarsson, became the second Lutheran bishop of Iceland, while their daughter, Guðrún, married wealthy landowner Daði Guðmundsson.[2]

Einar's sons and son-in-law all clashed with Catholic Bishop Jón Arason during the Icelandic Reformation, culminating with Daði capturing Jón and his sons at the Battle of Sauðafell.
