Sean Vrieland
Associate Professor
Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics

My main research area is the development of the Nordic languages and their written sources, especially Late Medieval and Early Modern manuscripts. In December 2017 I defended my Ph.D. dissertation about the medieval language of Gotland, Old Gutnish, and one of its few written sources, a post-medieval manuscript copied by a Danish priest on the island in the sixteenth century.
Other areas of interest include the various philological disciplines, including paleography, codicology, and textual criticism.
