Stefan Drechsler is a Researcher in Old Norse philology at the Department of Linguistic, Literary and Aesthetic Studies at the University of Bergen. His academic work focuses on interdisciplinary research into medieval Scandinavian manuscripts, particularly examining the intersection of textual analysis, codicology, and art history within the context of law manuscripts from medieval Norway and Iceland. Dr. Drechsler's research interests span a wide range of medieval studies topics including textual and codicological compilation strategies in Scandinavian law manuscripts, legal iconography in medieval European book painting, and social network analysis related to vernacular law texts. He has made significant contributions to understanding the literary and artistic exchange between western Scandinavian societies and other parts of Europe during the High Middle Ages. His work demonstrates how interdisciplinary approaches to vernacular manuscripts can reveal new information about cultural goods exchange and secular and ecclesiastical networks in the North Atlantic region. His publications show a consistent focus on manuscript production, particularly illuminated manuscripts from medieval Scandinavia. The most recent works examine paratextual elements in law manuscripts, iconography in Icelandic law manuscripts, and Norwegian manuscripts as European works of art, indicating a trend toward increasingly sophisticated analysis of the cultural context and artistic influences on medieval Scandinavian book production. Subjekt Award 2024 for 'The Laws of the Land 750 Years' exhibition at Bryggens Museum As Principal Investigator of two major research projects—'Nordic Law Books: The Production and Use of Vernacular Law Manuscripts in the North from 1100 to 1600' (NordicLaw) and 'Writing in Latin and in the Vernacular: Bilingual Scribal Practice in Norway ca. 1300–1350'—Drechsler has secured significant research funding. He has also organized a biannual public lecture series on medieval topics since 2020 and has been actively involved in multiple outreach projects including digital exhibitions. Dr. Drechsler is affiliated with the Research Group for Medieval Philology and the Research Group Images of Knowledge at the University of Bergen, where he contributes to the Medieval Research Cluster, a driving force in developing local and national dissemination of medieval knowledge.
