Als dynamische veertiger werd Erik van Vooren getroffen door een ongeneeslijke hartkwaal. Jarenlang zat hij gevangen in een roetsjbaan van medische complicaties. Uiteindelijk hebben de dokters beslist om de elektrische leiding in zijn hart door te knippen. Sindsdien is hij honder procent afhankelijk van zijn pacemaker. In die periode ontwikkelde hij een simpele, maar effectieve techniek om zichzelf te motiveren. Hij noemt het Mind Mining, omdat deze aanpak toelaat om dagelijks de eindeloze bron van je mentale energie aan te boren. (Bron: covertekst)

Written in the thirteenth century, the Icelandic prose sagas, chronicling the lives of kings and commoners, give a dramatic account of the first century after the settlement of Iceland-the period from about 930 to 1050. To some extent these elaborate tales are written versions of traditional sagas passed down by word of mouth. How did they become the long and polished literary works that are still read today?The evolution of the written sagas is commonly regarded as an anomalous phenomenon, distinct from contemporary developments in European literature. In this groundbreaking study, Carol J. Clover challenges this view and relates the rise of imaginative prose in Iceland directly to the rise of imaginative prose on the Continent. Analyzing the narrative structure and composition of the sagas and comparing them with other medieval works, Clover shows that the Icelandic authors, using Continental models, owe the prose form of their writings, as well as some basic narrative strategies, to Latin historiography and to French romance.
