Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. An in-depth lavishly illustrated exploration into women's role in the martial sphere of Viking culture. This pioneering and beautifully illustrated monograph provides an in-depth exploration of women's associations with the martial sphere of life in the Viking Age. The multifarious motivations and circumstances that led women to engage in armed conflict or other activities whereby weapons served as potent symbols of prestige and empowerment are illuminated and interpreted through an interdisciplinary approach to medieval literature and archaeological evidence from Scandinavia and the wider Viking world. Additional cross-cultural excursions into the lives and legends of female warriors in other past and present cultural milieus from the Asiatic steppes to the savannas of Africa and European battlefields lead to a nuanced understanding of the idea of the armed woman and its embodiments in Norse literature, myth and archaeological reality. AUTHOR: Leszek Gardela is a researcher at the National Museum of Denmark. He completed his PhD in archaeology at the University of Aberdeen in 2012 and has since participated in numerous research projects in Germany, Iceland, the Isle of Man, Norway and Poland. He has published extensively on Viking Age beliefs, ritual practices, warfare, identity and cultural interactions. SELLING POINTS: . Sets out to investigate the idea of 'the armed woman' in the Viking Age through a comprehensive and cross-cultural approach and weaves a nuanced picture of women's lives in the Viking world . The deeper meaning of weapons in the hands of females from the different categories of archaeological and textual sources has never before been exhaustively examined . By revising the cliche of a male-centred martial society, this book has the capacity to create solid foundations for a more nuanced conception not only of armed females (human and supernatural) in the Viking world, but also of the role of Scandinavian women in a more general sense 21 colour and 58 b/w illustrations An in-depth, beautifully illustrated exploration into womens role in the martial sphere of Viking culture. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Publisher's note: The Viking Age (c. 750-1050 AD) is conventionally seen as a tumultuous time when hordes of fierce warriors from Scandinavia wreaked havoc across the European continent and when Norse merchants travelled to distant corners of the world in pursuit of slaves, silver, and exotic commodities. Until relatively recently, archaeologists and textual scholars had the tendency to weave a largely male-dominated image of this pivotal period in world history, dismissing or substantially downplaying women's roles in Norse society. Today, however, there is ample evidence to suggest that many of the most spectacular achievements of Viking Age Scandinavians would not have been possible without the active involvement of women. This illustrated monograph provides an in-depth exploration of women's associations with the martial sphere of life in the Viking Age. Size: 28.2 x 22.1 x 1.8 cm. xvi, 167 pp. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo.
