Our present-day view of the Vikings and their activities is based
mainly on Swedish poetry of the romantic period, as well as the
results of archaeological research in the 20th century. But what
pictures were conjured up by Vikings and their travels in the
Middle Ages? An answer to this question can be provided by medieval
Scandinavian literature, in particular Icelandic. This is the first
study of the reception of the Vikings and their travels in medieval
Old Norse literature to be attempted.
