Oldtidssagaerne var den første sagagenre, der udkom på tryk. I den politisk højspændte stemning i 1600-tallet blev de brugt som bevis for Danmarks og Sveriges ældgamle kongehuse.

Men Saxo havde allerede været hos islændingene: Størstedelen af hans ni første bøger er baseret på oldtidssagaer. I romantikken dyrkede man Nordens oldtid, og den fandt man i oldtidssagaerne. Nu ansås sagaerne som et ægte udtryk for nordisk ånd.

Et ekslusivt udvalg af forfatteren Selma Lagerlöfs mindre kendte tekster - fortællinger, legender, essays og taler. Teksterne, der måske har stået i skyggen af hendes store romaner, kaster nyt lys over forfatterskabet - og på Selma Lagerlöf som den engagerede person, hun var.

Hun var medlem af Det Svenske Akademi, fik som den første kvinde Nobelprisen i litteratur og var - blandt andre politiske mærkesager - erklæret pacifist. Tilsammen giver de udvalgte tekster et indblik i forfatterskabets forløb og udvikling.
