Heroes and Mental Illness. Mental Illness and Personality Disorders in Icelandic Sagas. Óttar Guðmundsson examines Icelandic heroes.
Doctor Óttar Guðmundsson always attacks the garden where he is the highest. Here he confronts the traditional view of Icelandic sagas and applies his professional knowledge in an unexpected way. Professor Torfi Tulinius writes an afterword. What mental problems plagued Gunnar, Hallgerði, Skarphéðin and Njál – or Egil? What is the psychiatrist's opinion of Guðrún Ósvífursdóttir's love affairs? "This is a terribly entertaining book." – EH/Kiljan. (Bókatíðindi 2012).
