Construction of Njal's Saga

Number of Pages 5

A 5 page research paper that analyzes an Icelandic medieval saga. The writer focuses on the structure of this work and argues that it was composed for the purpose of being read aloud to people confined on isolated farms during Iceland's long winter. This purpose accounts for the informal tone of the work, its "artless style," and its emphasis on kinship relationships. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
