Hélène Tétrel: The different versions of Breta sögur
On the Old Norse translation of Geoffrey of Monmouth
Tuesday March 4, 2014, at 16.30
Árnagarður 311
In this presentation I will discuss my research on Breta sögur, the Old
Norse translation of the Historia regum Britannie by Geoffrey of Monmouth.
I will give a brief account of the different manuscripts and their
relation to each other, discuss the difference between what is usually
considered as the two existing versions of the Breta sögur, transmitted in
Hauksbók and AM 573 4to, and the content of the text in comparison to
other known Galfridian adaptations in Europe.
Hélène Tétrel is associate professor of medieval studies at Université de
Bretagne Occidentale, Brest, France. She specializes in the Norse
translations of French medieval literature, in particular the romances
(the chansons de geste), the Breton material in the sagas of chivalry and
pseudo-historical texts, including Karlamagnúss saga og Breta sögur.

John Hines: The heathen Norse in England
A runic inscription from Saltfleetby, Lincolnshire
Wednesday March 5, 2014, at 16.30
Árnagarður 311
Although Late Anglo-Saxon Christian writers automatically refer to the
Norse Vikings as 'heathens', evidence for the religious ideas and
practices of these people in Britain is practically non-existent, and the
speed and thoroughness with which they assimilated to Anglo-Saxon culture
and converted to Christianity in England is much disputed. A spindle whorl
from a coastal site at Saltfleetby in Lincolnshire found in 2010 is small
but provides important new information and insight. It invokes Óðinn,
Heimdallr and a þalfa (Þjálfa?); It can be dated to around the early 11th
century. This paper will present refined, and discuss the archaeological,
runological, linguistic and historical aspects of its significance, with
reference particularly to the wider history of the runic tradition in
Britain in the Viking Period and the survival and use of the Norse
language.
John Hines FSA, MA, DPhil (Oxon) is Professor in the School of History,
Archaeology and Religion of Cardiff University, Wales. He specializes in
the material life, literature and languages of medieval northern Europe,
and has focussed research on the integrated (?interdisciplinary?) study of
archaeology, the history of language, and literature.

Steinunn J. Kristjánsdóttir: Klaustrin á Íslandi kortlögð? Ný rannsókn
Fimmtudaginn 6. mars 2014 kl. 16.30
Árnagarði 311
Kaþólsk trú hefur verið lítt sýnileg í íslensku samfélagi frá því að
lúterskri kirkjuskipan var komið um miðja 16. öld. Í dag eru áþreifanlegar
minjar um íslensku miðaldaklaustrin fáar og minni um þau oft afbökuð eða
gleymd. Í fyrirlestrinum verður greint frá nýhafinni rannsókn sem miðar að
því að kortleggja og skrá minjar, gripi, örnefni, munnmæli og ritaðar
heimildar um þau. Vonast er til að hægt verið greina umsvif þeirra
hérlendis og áhrif á þróun og skipan stjórnarfars- og samfélagsmála fram
að siðaskiptum. Rannsóknin hófst sumarið 2013 með leit að minjum í
Hítardal á Mýrum og á Bæ í Borgarfirði. Greint verður frá niðurstöðum úr
þessum fyrstu tveimur vettvangsferðum en þær skiluðu meiri árangri en
vonir stóðu til í fyrstu.
Steinunn J. Kristjánsdóttir er prófessor í fornleifafræði við Háskóla
Íslands og Þjóðminjasafn Íslands. Hún er með doktorspróf í fornleifafræði
frá Háskólanum í Gautaborg og hefur undanfarin ár stundað rannsóknir á
Skriðuklaustri og klausturmenningu hérlendis en einnig á kristnivæðingunni
við upphaf miðalda.
