| Summary, etc |
This definitive and unique collection present thirty-four of the most important Viking myths, heroic legends, and historical sagas, many previously known only within the academic world. Gods, giantesses, dwarfs, valkyries, ghosts, and dragons mingle with real-life queens, kings, slaves, lovers, and outlaws. Visions of the mythical creation and end of the world contrast with a graphic account of the Vikings' discovery of North America. It includes tales of the cursed ring that inspired Tolkien and the story behind Shakespeare's Hamlet. Written by a master storyteller in consultation with leading scholars, the book also contains proverbs, spells, poems, riddles, detailed notes and a comprehensive glossary, offering a unique insight into Viking Age culture and beliefs. |
