In the ninth century, Vikings carried out raids on the Christian
north and Muslim south of the Iberian peninsula (modern Spain and
Portugal), going on to attack North Africa, southern Francia and
Italy and perhaps sailing as far as Byzantium. A century later,
Vikings killed a bishop of Santiago de Compostela and harried the
coasts of al-Andalus. Most of the raids after this date were small
in scale, but several heroes of the Old Norse sagas were said to
have raided in the peninsula. These Vikings have been only a
footnote to the history of the Viking Age. Many stories about their
activities survive only in elaborate versions written centuries
after the event, and in Arabic. This book reconsiders the Arabic
material as part of a dossier that also includes Latin chronicles
and charters as well as archaeological and place-name evidence.
Arabic authors and their Latin contemporaries remembered Vikings in
Iberia in surprisingly similar ways. How they did so sheds light on
contemporary responses to Vikings throughout the medieval world.

Ordinary Christology is defined as the account of who Jesus was/is
and what he did/does that is given by Christian believers who have
received no formal theological education. In this fascinating study
Ann Christie analyses, and offers a theological appraisal, of the
main christologies and soteriologies operating in a sample of
ordinary churchgoers. Christie highlights the formal
characteristics of ordinary Christology and raises questions about
how we should respond to the beliefs about Jesus held by ordinary
churchgoers. Empirical findings have important pastoral,
theological, and missiological implications, and raise important
questions about the importance (or otherwise) of 'right' belief for
being Christian. This book presents a model for how the study of
ordinary theology can be conducted, with the in-depth theological
analysis and critique which it both requires and deserves.
