Synopsis "Medieval Oddi in Iceland as a Place of Power and Learning: Clerics, Chieftains, and Textual Culture"

Medieval Oddi in Iceland is well known for its famous inhabitants: the priest and chief S mundr (d. 1133), later an outstanding magician in Icelandic folk-tales; his grandson the magnificent chieftain Jón Loptsson (d. 1197), of royal descent through his Norwegian mother; and his fosterson, Snorri Sturluson (d. 1241), author of the much acclaimed Prose Edda and Heimskringla. Bishop orlákr (d. 1193) also studied at Oddi and, like S mundr, later studied abroad. These are illustrious men in the history of Iceland. 12th- and 13th-century Oddi and the Oddi family are an important subject for those who want to study the origins of the outstanding textual culture of medieval Iceland. Contributors are Miguel Andrade, Auður Magnúsdóttir, Ármann Jakobsson, Árni Freyr Magnússon, Chris Callow, Egill Erlendsson, Guðrún Harðardóttir, Gunnar Harðarson, Halldís Ármannsdóttir, Helgi orláksson, Kristborg órsdóttir, Richard North, Oddur Pálsson, Sigurlaugur Ingólfsson, Sverrir Jakobsson, Tómas Aron órarinsson, and Viðar Pálsson.
