N2  - "The King's Mirror (Speculum regale-Konungs skuggsjá)" by Laurence Marcellus Larson is a Norwegian didactic text written around 1250. Originally intended to educate the son of King Håkon Håkonsson, this work takes the form of a dialogue between father and son. The father offers guidance on matters of trade, courtly conduct, military strategy, and the delicate balance between church and state. Woven throughout are captivating accounts of marvels and encounters from distant lands, blending practical wisdom with medieval wonder in this example of speculum literature.
