Description

Explore the legal and social foundations of one of Scandinavia's most important historical regions. This edition brings together Guta Lag, the early law of the independent island of Gotland, and the Guta Saga, a historical appendix written in the thirteenth or fourteenth century. For the first time, these two foundational texts are translated into English and presented in a single volume. This work provides a window into the lives of people living on Sweden's largest Baltic island between the years 1000 and 1400. By combining the legal code with its accompanying saga, readers gain a deep understanding of the historical context and social structures of the era. This volume is part of the Routledge Medieval Translations series and includes an extensive commentary and historical background to help readers navigate these primary sources.
