The summer school schedule has been announced at Háskólasetur Vestfjarða
(University Centre of the Westfjords) in Iceland and once again includes
a
summer course in August on Gísla saga. I recommend the course to anyone
with an interest in the sagas, or in Viking-age topics. In addition to
the
classroom learning in the sagas, in Viking-age history, society, and
culture, and in the classical Icelandic language, the course offers
field
excursions to saga sites and other historical sites, as well as numerous
out-of-the-classroom activities. It is a unique opportunity. Full
disclosure: I am one of the instructors, and I can't wait to teach it
again. More information at:
