As regards myself as researcher, my interests include everything related to Old Germanic languages and literatures, from Gothic etymology to saga narrative and oral formulaic theory. My published research is mainly in the area of Old Norse and Old English alliterative poetry, as well as in morphology and syntax of compound nouns in Old Germanic languages.
