Filling a gap in the literature for an academically oriented volume
on the Viking period, this unique book is a one-stop authoritative
introduction to all the latest research in the field. Bringing
together today's leading scholars, both established seniors and
younger, cutting-edge academics, Brink and Price have constructed
the first single work to gather innovative research from a spectrum
of disciplines (including archaeology, history, philology,
comparative religion, numismatics and cultural geography) to create
the most comprehensive Viking Age book of its kind ever attempted.
Consisting of longer articles providing overviews of important
themes, supported by shorter papers focusing on material of
particular interest -- specific sites or finds, crucial written
sources or the results of the latest individual research projects
-- this comprehensive volume covers such wide-ranging topics as
social institutions, spatial issues, the Viking Age economy,
warfare, beliefs, language, voyages, andlinks with medieval and
Christian Europe.
Conceived and assembled in Scandinavia, with a marked international
flavour, this original work, specifically oriented towards a
university audience and the educated public, will have a
self-evident place as an undergraduate course book and will be a
standard work of reference for all those in the field.
