Authoritative, comprehensive reference incorporating the latest
research on tales, literary and oral sources, and the
broad-reaching cultural legacy of Norse mythology. The book
describes the pagan origins of Scandinavia, the interaction between
the Vikings and other Europeans, and the concept of time in Norse
mythology, and gives a dictionary of deities, themes, and concepts.
With 200 entries of up to four pages each, the dictionary includes
both well-known characters like Thor and minor figures such as
Gleipnir, the "fetter with which the wolf Fenrir was finally
bound." It also includes further references about Viking and
medieval Scandinavia, archaeology, etymology, the conversion of
Iceland, other encyclopedias, and more.
