Mass Market Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 1st Published: 1960/Reprinted: 1970. 347 + pp. Solidly bound copy with moderate overall wear and use. Pen underlinings throughout text. Moderate foxing on page edges, not affecting text. Creased and mildly indented spine. Small cut (tear) on back cover page. Synopsis: In this fascinating work, Prof. Brøndsted has produced a book that many historians still regard as a seminal work on the Vikings. He explains the political and social context in Western Europe that allowed the Vikings from AD 800 to AD 1000 to be a significant military, trading and political force. In doing so, Prof. Johannes Brøndsted examines every aspect of Viking society and culture. He also examines why the Vikings could occupy the North Atlantic islands, but could not secure their settlements in North America; why they were able to reach all the coast of Western Europe and to penetrate Eastern Europe to Istanbul and Baghdad, but not to penetrate Central Euriope. Lastly, he considers why the Vikings came to accept Christianity, a religion quite alien to their own traditional religious beliefs is also explored. Professor Brønsted's purpose is to shed light upon the Nordic Viking, that strange phenomenon of European history from A.D. 800 to 1100. He analyses the motives of the Viking raids and voyages, and investigates the reasons why the Vikings could occupy the North Atlantic Islands but could not secure their settlements in North America; why they were able to reach all the coast of Western Europe and penetrate Eastern Europe to Istanbul and Baghdad but could not penetrate Central Europe. The Vikings' acceptance of Christianity, a religion quite alien to their own philosophy, is also considered. The book, now re-issued in a revised translation, deals also with the background and origin of the Vikings, their industries and equipment, ships and armies, social organization and daily life, ideas and beliefs as they are reflected in runic inscriptions, burial customs, and Icelandic medieval literature. Johannes Brøndsted was born in Jutland in 1890 and received his doctor's degree for research into the relations between Anglo-Saxon and Nordic art in Viking times in 1920. In 1922-3 with E. Dyggve he excavated Early Christian monuments in Dalmatia (Recherches a Salone, 1928). From 1941 to 1951 he was Professor or Nordic Archaeology and European Prehistory at the University of Copenhagen. In Danmarks Oldtid (three volumes, second edition 1957-9) he has given a full statement of the prehistory of his own country. He was elected a Corresponding Fellow of the British Academy in 1952 and received the gold medal of the Royal Society of Antiquaries in 1954. From 1951 to 1960 he was director of the National Museum in Copenhagen. He died in 1965.
