«This thesis directs attention to the Old Norwegian text work Konungs skuggsjá and its thirteenth-century manuscript context through a case study of the main manuscript AM 243 b α fol. (c. 1275). While previous research on the work focused on pedagogical and political ideologies, the main aim of this thesis is to explore how the didactic programme of Konungs skuggsjá is reflected in the materiality and textuality of this manuscript.» — 1
