Manning examines the presentation of anger in the Ãslendingasögur ('Sagas of Icelanders') and Ãslendingaþættir ('Tales of Icelanders'), a remarkable Old Norse-Icelandic corpus of texts written in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, that details conflicts and feuds of Icelanders from the late-ninth to early-eleventh centuries.
