Inés García

Professor Inés García, affiliated with the Department of English and German Studies at Rovira i Virgili University, specializes in Medieval Literature and Old Norse Studies. She holds a position within the Faculty of Arts and has been recognized with the prestigious Snorri Sturluson Fellowship from the Icelandic Government, enabling her to translate the 13th-century Kormákr's Saga into Catalan. This project marks the first Catalan translation of an Icelandic saga, highlighting her contributions to cross-cultural literary exchange.

Her research interests encompass Old Norse literature, translation studies, and the intersection of psychoanalysis with cultural critique. Recent work explores gender roles in medieval Nordic texts, the performative aspects of skáldsögur poetry, and the application of psychoanalytic theory to literary analysis.

Selected publications include studies on Viking society, medieval Scandinavian monuments, and the representation of women in sagas. Her work frequently bridges historical texts with contemporary cultural and theoretical frameworks.
