Add your own review!

Overview

New Norse Studies, edited by Jeffrey Turco, gathers twelve original essays engaging aspects of Old Norse-Icelandic literature that continue to kindle the scholarly imagination in the twenty-first century. The assembled authors examine the arriere-scene of saga literature; the nexus of skaldic poetry and saga narrative; medieval and post-medieval gender roles; and other manifestations of language, time, and place as preserved in Old Norse-Icelandic texts. This volume will be welcomed not only by the specialist and by scholars in adjacent fields but also by avid general readers, drawn in ever-increasing numbers to the Icelandic sagas and their world. Contributors: Paul Acker, Saint Louis University; Gudrun Nordal, University of Iceland; Sarah Harlan-Haughey, Cornell University; Joseph Harris, Harvard University; Richard Harris, University of Saskatchewan; Thomas D. Hill, Cornell University; Shaun Hughes, Purdue University; Andy Orchard, University of Toronto; Russell Poole, University of Western Ontario; Torfi Tulinius, University of Iceland; Jeffrey Turco; Purdue University; Kirsten Wolf, University of Wisconsin-Madison
