The volume contextualizes the work in the Medieval Icelandic literature's framework and offers an overlook at philological issues, such as, for example, the relationship between the existing manuscripts and the genesis of the saga. In addition, the volume also provides a literary analysis of the style, characters and text, based on some of the recent academic studies. The Ljósvetninga saga tells the story of the continuous struggles between two families in Northern Iceland for supremacy over the territory: through the extensive references to legal practices, it remains a precious example of medieval Icelandic culture.Biblioteca di studi di filologia moderna.Icelandic literatureHistory and criticismIcelandic literatureHistory and criticism.839.609Gavilli Ruben1277740NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910592292203321Ljósvetninga saga3011971UNINA
