N2 - This book examines tropes of social exclusion around the medieval North Sea area, and in particular makes a case for considering the benefits to be gleaned from occupying a liminal position. Its innovation lies in the breadth of material it brings together, and in its comparative approach across early medieval England, Ireland and Scandinavia. It will provide much material for specialists in any one of those three areas, as well as for those working across the cultures of the region.
