Icelandic literary man of high social standing. the treatise can indeed be
viewed as a manifestation of Hauksbók’s “theoretical interests in man and
the world,” as Gunnar Harðarson asserts. If Hauksbók is to be considered
“a fine example of the personal intellectual culture of an aristocrat in the
norwegian fourteenth century”102 and, as Sverrir Jakobsson argues, rep-
resentative of the Catholic world view of the Icelandic literary élite,103
this treatise – with its microcosmic elucidations of the interrelationship
between the divine creation and detailed human physiology – can surely
be regarded as a reflection of that.
