hundreds of years ago in faraway iceland the vikings began to write down dozens of stories called
sagas - sweeping narratives based on real people and real events. but as oxford university's janina
ramirez discovers, these sagas are not just great works of art, they are also priceless historical
documents which bring to life the viking world. dr ramirez travels across glaciers and through the
lava fields of iceland to the far north west of the country to find out about one of the most
compelling of these stories - the laxdaela saga.
thanks for the up
