[A]s the extensive listing of works cited indicates, consideration of genre is today a matter of interest to many leading scholars in the Old Norse field, and for anyone in that field concerned with the topic of genre this collection of essays is indeed vital reading. -- Journal of the Australian Early Medieval Assoc. A marvellous addition to Old Norse scholarship and the debate about genre, with every chapter, without exception, written by one of our field's best minds. The editorial agency is strongly felt and unlike many edited compilations, this book succeeds in connecting all of its pieces: in many ways, a genre-defying achievement. * SAGA-BOOK *
