Fornaldarsaga project launched

Stories for all time The aim of the three-year research project "Stories for all time" is to investigate the transmission of the fornaldarsögur from the middle ages onwards, mapping their production, dissemination and reception in relation to broader historical, social and cultural processes.

At the same time, the project will prepare electronic editions of some of the more important and/or interesting manuscripts in which the sagas are preserved, thereby making the texts available to researchers, students and other interested parties.
