Jonas Wellendorf: A Useful Old Norse Literature

The lecture is based on the exhibition Fragments of the Past which is a collaborative project between the Centre for Medieval Studies (CMS) and the University Museum, and is part of the University’s priority areas for medieval research.  

The project Fragments of the Past will extend over two years and consists of themed exhibitions that will change every 6 months and a lecture series that will explore the themes of the exhibition.  

This is the third part of the exhibition project.
