Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Wisconsin - Madison, 2015.

This dissertation analyzes material aspects (codicology) as well as the readership and reception of the just over sixty extant manuscripts containing the Icelandic family saga Njals saga (c1280). The manuscripts date from the fourteenth to the nineteenth century. Through the analysis of codicological features, such as size, layout, and text density, it is possible to construct trends and changes in manuscript production over time and illustrate how differences in the codicological make-up of a manuscript allude to its intended purpose, such as scholarly or private use.

520 $a This dissertation analyzes material aspects (codicology) as well as the readership and reception of the just over sixty extant manuscripts containing the Icelandic family saga Njals saga (c1280). The manuscripts date from the fourteenth to the nineteenth century. Through the analysis of codicological features, such as size, layout, and text density, it is possible to construct trends and changes in manuscript production over time and illustrate how differences in the codicological make-up of a manuscript allude to its intended purpose, such as scholarly or private use.
520 $a The dissertation begins with three introductory chapters, outlining the history of codicology in general and specific to Scandinavia (Chapter 1), the methodology utilized for the codicological study (Chapter 2), and the history of research on Njals saga (Chapter 3). These introductions are followed by the presentation (Chapter 4) and analysis (Chapter 5) of the codicological data collected. The sixth chapter takes a closer look at the readership and reception of the manuscripts in question. First, a small selection of manuscripts are used as case studies to exemplify how codicological data, in combination with ownership marks, marginal notes, and manuscript context (the various texts preserved in one codex), can be utilized to construct the history and social background of the manuscripts. The second part of this chapter offers a detailed overview and interpretation of paratextual features, both those that show no connection to the saga text (e.g., ownership marks, pen trials) and those that relate to the story, including marginal annotations by scribes and readers, highlighted and underlined passages, or depictions of scenes and characters. Chapter 7 offers an overall summary as well as possibilities for future research.
