Tradition, Innovation, and Performance in Medieval Scandinavia
Description
Provides critical new perspectives on the Old Norse world, some of which appear in this volume for the first time in English. He examines, interprets, and re-interprets the medieval data bequeathed to us by posterity—myths, legends, riddles, charms, court culture, conversion narratives, landscapes, and mindscapes—targeting largely overlooked, yet important sources of cultural insights.
