Mathilde Lind Wins NOMAD Prize

Letter announcing Mathilde Lind as NOMAD prize winner:

I’d like you to join me in congratulating this year’s winner of the NOMAD prize for the best essay published in the NOMAD journal – Folklore Undergraduate Mathilde Lind. Mathilde’s essay, “The Absurdity of Literary Folktales in Zachris Topelius’ ‘The Sea King’s Gift’” is remarkable in the ingenuity and the execution of the argument, and is a very vaulable addition to this year’s journal titled “Humors.”

It also gives me great pleasure to announce Finlay Louden as deserving honorable mention for their essay “A Tale of Two Snorris: Reading Conflicting Culture, Ritual, and Ridicule in Snorri Sturluson’s Poetic Edda”.

A huge thank you to all of this year NOMAD mentees and mentors for putting together an amazing range of essays related to Humors–kudos to all of you!
