Description

Old Norse Poetry in Performance explores how eddic and skaldic poems were originally performed in medieval Scandinavia, Iceland, and European royal courts. This Routledge scholarly work examines surviving evidence of recitation and performance styles whilst applying modern Performance Studies methods to reconstruct how these verses were delivered. Contributors investigate the fragmentary corpus of Old Norse verse through multiple disciplinary lenses, bridging medieval performance practices with contemporary performance analysis. The book addresses the challenge of interpreting performance traditions across sagas and court contexts, offering insights into how ancient Norse poetry functioned as oral and performed art rather than solely as written text.
