Are you interested in stories rich with murder, intrigue and sharp wit? This course will explore the Norse sagas, which are medieval tales rooted in Old Norse mythology, written in Iceland centuries after the Viking era. These stories range from realistic travel chronicles to epic sword-and-sorcery adventures, and they offer a fascinating glimpse into “Dark Age” swashbuckling. In this course we will also discuss how these stories continue to profoundly influence modern culture. Course enrollment is limited to 13 participants. This class is not recorded.
