Abstract
The five articles that comprise this issue on _Peripheral Figures: British and Irish Receptions of Nordic Literature and Culture_ share three goals. The first is to argue that thinking about Nordic literature and culture in terms of peripheries has opened up in the past, and can continue to open up in the future, rich and challenging perspectives on that literature and culture. The second is to contend that the transmission of Nordic literature and culture to other countries, and the influence it has had upon them, has at times been significantly enabled by this association of that literature and culture with a position on a periphery. The third and final goal is to support these claims through case studies taken from the reception of Nordic literature and culture in the British Isles.
