Digital Norse / Jan Alexander Van Nahl.The last fifty years have seen a significant change in the focus of saga studies, from a preoccupation with origins and development to a renewed interest in other topics, such as the nature of the sagas and their value as sources to medieval ideologies and mentalities. The Routledge Research Companion to the Medieval Icelandic Sagas presents a detailed interdisciplinary examination of saga scholarship over the last fifty years, sometimes juxtaposing it with earlier views and examining the sagas both as works of art and as source materials. This volume will be of interest to Old Norse and medieval Scandinavian scholars and accessible to medievalists in general.Research companion to the medieval Icelandic sagasSagasHistory and criticismSagasHistory and criticism.839/.63009Ármann Jakobsson1970-892687Sverrir Jakobsson1970-892688FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910164874103321The Routledge research companion to the medieval Icelandic sagas1993923UNINA
