Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - An uncompromising chronicle of power and law. Thirteenth-century Iceland laid bare.Violence and law collide here.Vigfusson's edition collects the Sturlunga narratives - including The Islendinga Sage of Lawman Sturla Thordsson and other works - into a singular historical saga anthology that reads like court record and epic at once. Essential to any Icelandic sagas collection and to readers of medieval Nordic literature, the volume maps a society governed as much by legal procedure as by blood ties. It is an invaluable window into Norse law and society, showing how assemblies, oath-swearing and compensation underpinned political authority amid the turbulence of the period. The prose retains the directness of Old Norse texts while the editorial hand clarifies names, sequence and context for modern eyes; the result rewards those drawn to Viking Age history, to studies of kinship and to the mechanics of family feuds in Iceland. Its themes - honour, jurisdiction, allegiance and the cost of power - speak both to literary readers and to social historians, making the volume equally pertinent for academic medieval studies and for casual readers seeking vivid historical narrative.Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Presented with attention to textual fidelity and clarity, it is a natural fit for classic literature students, scholars assembling resources for academic medieval studies, and anyone building a heimskringla companion or exploring Snorri Sturluson-related materials. Collectors will appreciate the book's status as a piece of cultural history, while libraries and enthusiasts of Viking Age history will value its documentary force. For readers who want the immediacy of saga storytelling and the evidence of primary Old Norse texts, this edition offers both access and authority. The accessible rendering and careful apparatus make it both approachable for newcomers and prized by classic-literature collectors.…
