Dr Gareth Evans and Professor Carolyne Larrington have received a grant from the John Fell Fund to run a workshop on ‘saga emotions’. The workshop will bring together internationally leading and emerging scholars to generate innovative research into the language and representation of emotion in Old Norse-Icelandic saga literature.
The workshop will ultimately lead to a substantial edited collection, provisionally entitled Saga Emotions: A Handbook, which will be co-edited by Dr Evans and Professor Larrington.
