From Rus' to Rímur, volume 65 in the Islandica series and simultaneously an issue in the occasional journal New Norse Studies, offers six contributions that range across Europe from East to West and across three categories: "Historical Studies," "Literary Studies," and "New Editions." The volume opens with a historical-onomastic study of the Varangian presence in Medieval Rus' and proceeds to the Isle of Man for a consideration of its population's "ethnogenesis" in the tenth and eleventh centuries. Literary studies and fresh translations follow to return our attention to the remarkable creativity in sagas and poetry that was an especially rich province of Norse and Icelandic culture. Contributors: Matthew Bardowell, Brynja orgeirsdóttir, Francesco Colombo, Caitlin Ellis, Eric A. Haley-Halinski, Shaun F. D. Hughes, Jonathan Y. H. Hui, Philip Lavender, Anna Litvina, James McIntosh, Dirk H. Steinforth, Fjodor Uspenski.
