Description

Explore a new perspective on the Old Norse-Icelandic konungasogur with this scholarly work from De Gruyter. While the kings' sagas have been studied for centuries for their depiction of the Viking Age, women are often left out of political discussions. This book changes that by examining how aristocratic and royal women participated in politics. Through an analysis of these historical accounts, the text demonstrates that women were able to engage in political life at a level similar to men, provided they operated within specific social parameters. This study provides a detailed look at the social networks and structural elements that allowed women to enter the political sphere in early Norwegian history.
