Hardback, Pages: 337, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 col., 3 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503610443. Summary While the medieval regions that form modern-day Britain, Ireland, Iceland, and the Scandinavian states were, very much like today, home to diverse ethnic and linguistic groups, it is evident that the peoples who inhabited the north-western Atlantic seaboard at this time were nonetheless connected by key cultural, environmental, historical, and ideological experiences that set them apart from other regions of Europe. This volume is the first to focus specifically on these cultural and linguistic connections from the perspective of the history of emotions. The contributions collected here examine cultural encounters among medieval North Atlantic peoples with regard to the gradual development of shared emotional models and the emergence of early cross-cultural emotional communities in this region. The chapters also explore how the folk psychologies illustrated in the oldest European vernacular writing traditions (Irish, English, and Scandinavian) bear witness to cultural models for emotions that first took shape in pre-Christian times.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book is a compelling compilation of articles dissecting the numerous facets of the hidden world right in front of us. As you read the first article you will begin to understand the infinite powers that have been demonstrated by a small number or people, yet have been suppressed from public knowledge. We have been conditioned to believe all the power we possess is given to us from an authority outside ourselves, not from an innate knowing from within. This concept of limitation leaves us subject to hidden powers and ignorant of our true reality.Genesis 1:27 'God created man in his own image' can been taken literally. When we begin to understand our latent spiritual connection and move towards our true potential we can overcome the many obstacles based on historic and present lies. These diverse and dangerous issues have been ignored or presented by mainstream media in such a way these ideas have become the reality for most people. These articles challenge the many false narratives and expose the true agendas of a powerful few who have no love for humanity. With a commitment to honest research and a call to action, this collection navigates through the pandemonium, offering key insights to empower individuals in these challenging times. Uncover the truth, share knowledge and take control.…
