Condition: Sehr Gut. Zustandsbeschreibung: Mängelexemplar. The rôle of the Creative Compiler. «The less prepared the body of good men within the land are to act as mediators, the longer, more violent and less reconcilable will be the conflicts through which the land is plagued.» The prefatory sagas of the Sturlunga compilation develop this principle by incremental repetition of themes, of disintegration, of mediation and its collapse, of flawed reconciliation; the central work of the compilation, Sturla Thordarson's «Islendinga saga», provides the proof. The compilation as an entity is an «exemplum» calling on the leaders of 14th-Century Iceland to settle their differences amicably and avoid a return to Sturlung Age chaos.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A lawyer follows the rules in the pursuit of justice. But what happens when unjust outcomes cause him to question the very principles that he took to be sacrosanct? Can a worthy end ever justify nefarious means? Dare he write his own moral code? Thirty-three-year-old Martin Black is happy to coast along in his small criminal law practice in a northern English town that has its fair share of deprivation and crime. He's never wanted to set the world alight, but has the modest ambition to make just a bit more profit. When an opportunity presents itself on a plate, he grabs it with both hands. He soon learns to be careful what he wishes for, finding himself caught up in a spider's web he could never have dreamed of. His involvement leads him inexorably into a dark place with no easy way out. Then, the hand of fate intervenes to provide an escape, but only if Martin is willing to embark on a journey which will change him forever, and see him question both his beliefs and the people around him.
