Þorgnýr the Lawspeaker



Þorgnýr the Lawspeaker (Old Icelandic: Þorgnýr lögmaðr, Swedish: Torgny Lagman) is the name of one of at least three generations of lawspeakers by the name Þorgnýr. They are mentioned in several sources, of which the Heimskringla by the Icelandic historian Snorri Sturluson is the most important, but also in the less known Styrbjarnar þáttr Svíakappa and Hróa þáttr heimska.
