Jane Eleanor Kern (US)
As an undergraduate, I studied history, with a concentration in African History, as well as German language and culture. I am excited to explore ideas of orality and early literacy through the Old Icelandic texts, particularly those relating to religion and conversion narratives. |

Lea Debora Pokorny (Austria)
During my undergraduate, I studied Scandinavian linguistics, culture, and history. For the past two years, I have been focusing on the medieval period and found my passion for the field of manuscript studies, in which I hope to write my MA-thesis. |

Mario Alejandro Murillo (Colombia)
I come from a philology background, mainly focused on romance and germanic languages. I have an interest in the property in 'stateless' commonwealth Iceland as a cause for conflict in medieval Icelandic texts. |
