Reference Reviews
"...its chapters are crammed full to bursting with facts and
figures, references to primary and secondary sources, swift
overviews of past scholarship, and (very importantly) present
debates. This is ostensibly a reference book, to be consulted on
particular issues and subjects. But as with all the best
encyclopedias...browsing becomes addictive...Mc Turk's Companion to
Old Norse-Icelandic Studies is a great resource for the scholar or
graduate student who may think, mistakenly, that he or she is
familiar with this field."
The Review of English Studies
"No one could read the volume and not learn something, indeed a
great deal"
TLS
“A comprehensive guide to Old Norse-Icelandic literature
which functions as a basic reference work for scholars in
neighboring disciplines, a reliable introduction for students, and
an interesting and informative read for Old Norse scholars …
a remarkable achievement and a valuable resource.”
Carolyne Larrington, St John’s College, Modern Language
