520    Medieval Icelandic authors wrote a great deal on the 
       subject of England and the English. This new work by 
       Magnús Fjalldal is the first to provide an overview of 
       what Icelandic medieval texts have to say about Anglo-
       Saxon England in respect to its language, culture, history,
       and geography. Some of the texts Fjalldal examines include
       family sagas, the shorter ættir, the histories of 
       Norwegian and Danish kings, and the Icelandic lives of 
       Anglo-Saxon saints. Fjalldal finds that in response to a 
       hostile Norwegian court and kings, Icelandic authors - 
       from the early thirteenth century onwards (although they 
       were rather poorly informed about England before 1066) - 
       created a largely imaginary country where friendly, 
       generous, although rather ineffective kings living under 
       constant threat welcomed the assistance of saga heroes to 
       solve their problems. The England of Icelandic medieval 
       texts is more of a stage than a country, and chiefly 
       functions to provide saga heroes with fame abroad. Since 
       many of these texts are rarely examined outside of Iceland
       or in the English language, Fjalldal's book is important 
       for scholars of both medieval Norse culture and Anglo-
       Saxon England. 
546    Includes some text in Icelandic.
