520 |a A late medieval Icelandic romance about the maiden-king of France, the Nítía saga was well received in its day and grew in popularity throughout post-Reformation Iceland. It has not, however, received the comprehensive scholarly analysis it deserves, or that other Icelandic sagas have received.
