This book sets out a challenge to rethink and reframe our
perceptions of the past in a way that is less influenced by our own
modern ideas, appealing to all those interested in the Viking Age
and Medieval History. By examining the Viking Age model of
berserkir through both anthropological and archaeological evidence
to create a new and more accurate paradigm of the Viking Age
berserkr and his place in society, it will interest both
researchers and students alike. This book also examines the role of
berserkir in Viking Society through contemporary writings,
appealing to all those interested in Old Norse Literature.
