dc.description.abstract	This article examines the prevailing honour code in two Old Norse sagas, namely one saga about early Icelanders, the saga of Gisle Sursson, Gisla saga Súrssonar and one dealing with events from a late medieval society, the saga of Torgils and Havlide, Ϸorgils saga ok Hafliða. Jørgensen shows how honour functions as a driving force behind human actions, but also how the honour code changes with the transition from the old honour culture to the nascent Christian society.	en_US
