Annotation
An investigation of the politics behind four family sagas set in Borgarfjörður: Egils saga, Bjarnar saga Hítdælakappa, Hænsa-Þóris saga and Gunnlaugs saga ormstungu. These sagas unfold in the "saga period" past but may be interpreted as reflecting the changing social and political situation in 13th century Borgarfjörður: they are motivated, at least in part, by their authors' desire to "enhance solidarity and a sense of common identity" within specific political units (e.g., chieftaincies and principalities) and even to manipulate history to reinforce their own status and power.
