The essay aims to explain – by proceeding to the cross-study of Medieval Latin, Byzantine, Germanic, Italo and Gallo-Romance literary sources – the complex intertwining of arguments, archetypes and propaganda motifs underlying the surface of the topos of the golden horseshoes associated with the pilgrimage to the Holy Land of Duke Robert of Normandy and to illustrate the ways in which this anecdote – also present in the Old Norse Saga Sigurðar Jórsalafara – could have reached Iceland through the decisive mediation of the Norman culture.

Abstract

The essay aims to explain – by proceeding to the cross-study of Medieval Latin, Byzantine, Germanic, Italo and Gallo-Romance literary sources – the complex intertwining of arguments, archetypes and propaganda motifs underlying the surface of the topos of the golden horseshoes associated with the pilgrimage to the Holy Land of Duke Robert of Normandy and to illustrate the ways in which this anecdote – also present in the Old Norse Saga Sigurðar Jórsalafara – could have reached Iceland through the decisive mediation of the Norman culture.
