978-90-04-33562-2 (ISBN)
In Iceland’s Relationship with Norway c.870 – c.1100: Memory, History and Identity, Ann-Marie Long reassesses the development of Icelandic society from the earliest settlements to the twelfth century. Through a series of thematic studies, the book discusses the place of Norway in Icelandic cultural memory and how Icelandic authors envisioned and reconstructed their past. It examines in particular how these authors instrumentalized Norway to explain the changing parameters of Icelandic autonomy. Over time this strategy evolved to meet the needs of thirteenth-century Icelandic politics as well as the demands posed by the transition from autonomous island to Norwegian dependency.
Ann-Marie Long, Ph.D. (2014), University College Dublin, Ireland, is a Postdoctoral Research Associate with the Department of History at the University of Notre Dame, USA. She has published on cultural memory in Icelandic foundation narratives ('Sturlubók and Cultural Memory' in Sturla Þórðarson, Brill, 2017).
