Synopsis "New Studies on Emotion in Old Norse Literature"

This volume presents thirteen original essays that explore how emotions are represented across a wide spectrum of Old Norse texts. Subjects range from love, sorrow, and humiliation to monstrous feelings, renowned lovers, representations of the mind, curiosity, desire, and many other forms of emotional experience. Reflecting the vibrant scholarly interest in medieval depictions of emotion, this volume brings together diverse methodological approaches and critical perspectives. The contributors examine emotive expression in Eddic and skaldic poetry, rímur, romances, hagiography, medical texts, and runic inscriptions, as well as in major prose genres such as the kings' sagas, sagas of Icelanders, contemporary sagas, and legendary sagas. With its wide generic range and diverse critical strategies, this volume significantly broadens the scope of emotion studies in Old Norse literature - a field which was for a long time understudied but has now become a central topic within Old Norse studies. It will be of interest to scholars and students of medieval literature, history, philology, and the history of emotions, as well as to readers intrigued by how premodern texts register and interpret human affect.
