eddaic

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'about a certain kind of literature' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'caddie misled' is the wordplay.
'misled' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'misleading' mean this (I've seen this in other clues)).
'caddie' anagrammed gives 'EDDAIC'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for eddaic that I've seen before include "of old Norse poems" , "Of an Old Norse book of poetry; add ice (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
