Feud stands at the core of the Old Icelandic sagas. Jesse Byock
shows how the dominant concern of medieval Icelandic society--the
channeling of violence into accepted patterns of feud and the
regulation of conflict--is reflected in the narrative of the family
sagas and the "Sturlunga saga" compilation. This comprehensive
study of narrative structure demonstrates that the sagas are
complex expressions of medieval social thought.
