==Annotation== 
Medievalists are acutely aware of the importance of widows; widowers, in contrast, have attracted
little scholarly attention. Through examination of several widowers profiled in the Icelandic Egils
saga, this article probes into the subducted experience of medieval Norse widowerhood. Saga authors
largely observed a cultural mandate to ignore widowers. Nevertheless, clues can be detected to their awareness
of the significance of widowerhood, as well as their anxieties over its disruptive potentials. Egils saga
elucidates some of the ways Norse widowerhood might go wrong and some of the cultural mechanisms
devised to control it; it may even allow us a peek into the affective lives of bereaved Norse husbands.
