About this book

In the pop-cultural imagination, medieval Iceland is associated with an exaggerated, warrior-like image of masculinity. Much less-known are the portrayals of figures that are branded as unmanly in the Sagas of the Icelanders, which reveal how fiercely contested social ideas of masculinity were. This volume delves into these figures and conflicts at a literary level.
