Diebstahl und Raub in den Isländersagas

Theft and robbery are reciprocal actions with diverse literary applications. Though they figure centrally in Viking literature, scholars have paid them scant attention. This book shows that the crimes are gateways to the Sagas of Icelanders and their narrative technique. Moreover, they open windows through which to see the values of Icelandic saga society.
