Celtic-Norse Relationships in the Irish Sea in the Middle Ages 800-1200 de Jón Viđar Sigurđsson

Celtic-Norse Relationships in the Irish Sea in the Middle Ages 800-1200: The Northern World, cartea 65

Jón Viđar Sigurđsson, Timothy Bolton
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 noi 2013
This volume contains the proceedings of a conference held in Oslo in late 2005, which brought together scholars working in a wide variety of disciplines from Scandinavia, Great Britain and Ireland. The papers here began as those read at the conference, augmented by two written immediately after by attendees, but have been updated in light of the discussions in Oslo and more recent scholarship. They offer historical, archaeological, art-historical, religious-historical and philological views of the interaction and interdependence of Celtic and Norse populations in the Irish Sea region in the period 800 A.D.-1200 A.D.
Contributors are Ian Beuermann, Barbara Crawford, Claire Downham, Fiona Edmonds, Colmán Etchingham, Zanette T. Glørstad, John Hines, Alan Lane, Julie Lund, Jan Erik Rekdal and David Wyatt.

Recenzii

"This volume presents a wide range of approaches and evidence relating to a broad region in the ninth to thirteenth centuries. That this breadth is achieved without straying from the aim to address ‘Celtic-Norse relationships’ is a major strength of the volume. [...] This will be a valuable collection for encouraging interdisciplinary reading amongst students of the Irish Sea, and indeed future students of the Irish Sea Province." Alison Leonard, University of York, in: Northern Scotland, 9 (2018), pp. 73-76.
