In Old Icelandic of the 13th century, the modern non-negative ne- indefinite items are already found: 9) ...
Whether with Glauser's appropriation of Jan Assmann's idea of 'cultural memory', Tulinius's noting of how Icelandic genres interact within a literary system, as defined by Umberto Eco, of Geraldine Barnes's analysis of how the riddarasogur 'persuade us exuberantly of the power of language', with their knowingly ironic narrators, the book provides a well-grounded and interesting introduction to Old Icelandic literature, with the bonus of multiple signposts towards new directions in Old Norse scholarship.
This approach to history-writing echoes Islendingabok, Landnamabok, and other Old Icelandic works chron icling the settlement of Iceland and may well have been inspired, consciously or unconsciously, by these, though ultimately it is probably a natural consequence of migration, which seems to make people aware of great personages (Tomasson 13).
The book is a product of wide reading in an impressive range of sources - works written in Old English, Latin, Middle Irish, Welsh, and Old Icelandic - and the author considerately provides translations of all passages cited from Latin or vernacular texts.
Phelpstead (English literature, Cardiff U., Wales) disagrees with scholars not so much for declaring the biographies of royal saints in the Old Icelandic King's Sagas to be secular texts and not proper Saints Lives, but for making the distinction in the first place.

In her reviving of the case for genre, she assembles a wide range of evidence from all the languages with which the Anglo-Saxons might have been in contact, concluding with an Appendix of poems edited and translated from Latin, Old Welsh, and Old Icelandic. She has made good use of the information offered by the Microfiche Concordance and the published fascicles of the Dictionary of Old English in her comments on linguistic forms, both in describing the language of the Exeter Book and of the individual poems in her introduction and in notes on specific cruces.
What the Old Icelandic Rune Poem says about |man' -- that he is the |increase of earth' (= dust) -- is not to my ears |markedly celebratory' (135).
The 45 year old Icelandic soprano has been quiet since Biophilia, released along with a heap of apps to accompany each track(!).
by sea (including men, ships and money)' is the definition in Zoega's Concise Dictionary of Old Icelandic.) Here, as throughout the book, Malmros is particularly interested in the relationship between the various scholars' views and the social attitudes both of their own time and of later generations.
