Bloodtaking and peacemaking. Feud, alw, and society in Saga Iceland

Autore : William Ian Miller

This work seeks to delve beneath the chaos and brutality of the Norse world to discover a complex interplay of ordering and disordering impulses. William Miller's readings of ancient Iceland's sagas and extensive legal code aim to reconstruct and illuminate the society that produced them.
