This diverse and fascinating collection explores the creation, distribution, and response to literature in medieval Iceland.

This volume brings together twenty-one articles by M. J.  Driscoll, professor of Old Norse philology at the University of Copenhagen, written between 1991 and 2024. The articles have previously appeared in journals, anthologies, handbooks, companions, and festschrifts and deal for the most part with literary production, dissemination, and reception in Iceland during the Middle Ages and what may be termed the late pre-modern period, roughly from the advent of print in the early sixteenth century to the establishment of the Icelandic State Broadcasting Service in the early twentieth century.
