In Force of Words, Haraldur Hreinsson examines the social and
political significance of the Christian religion as the Roman
Church was taking hold in medieval Iceland in the 11th, 12th, and
13th centuries. By way of diverse sources, primarily hagiography
and sermons but also material sources, the author shows how
Christian religious ideas came into play in the often tumultuous
political landscape of the time. The study illuminates how the
Church, which was gathering strength across entire Europe,
established itself through the dissemination of religious
vernacular discourse at the northernmost borders of its dominion.
