It focuses on issues of memory and genre that arise from a material philology approach, providing a literary analysis of both redactions of the saga as independent texts with their own intrinsic value.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Um doktorsefni\u00f0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yoav Tirosh is an Israeli-Romanian with a BA in History from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and an MA in Viking and Medieval Norse Studies from the University of Iceland.
