The papers in this volume were first presented in 1994 at an
International Colloquium devoted to language and writing in the
German-Danish border area. The time period covered ranged from the
first short inscriptions on the weapons found at Thorsberg in the
territory of the Angles to the medieval runic inscriptions
discovered in the cities of Schleswig and Oldenburg in Holstein.
Central themes of the colloquium were the linguistic history of
this area and the historical events documented in the linguistic
records. The papers reflect the current state of research and
provide significant new insights; they come from a variety of
disciplines - runology, linguistics, history, and Scandinavian
literary history. An edition of the medieval runic inscriptions
from Schleswig and Oldenburg make this book an indispensable
research tool.
