Testifying to the rich relation between Icelandic culture and literature, this book draws upon the disciplines of history, sociology, feminism, ethnography and psychoanalysis, covering important texts that are infrequently discussed. |
| Synopsis: |
Cold Counsel is the only collection devoted to the place of women in Old Norse literature and culture. It draws upon the disciplines of history, sociology, feminism, ethnography and psychoanalysis in order to raise fresh questions about such new subjects as gender, class, sexuality, family structure and ideology in medieval Iceland. |
