Verwijzingen naar dit werk in externe bronnen. Wikipedia in het Engels (13)Filling a gap in the literature for an academically oriented volume on the Viking period, this unique book is a one-stop authoritative introduction to all the latest research in the field. Bringing together today's leading scholars, both established seniors and younger, cutting-edge academics, Stefan Brink and Neil Price have constructed the first single work to gather innovative research from a spectrum of disciplines (including archaeology, history, philology, comparative religion, numismatics and cultural geography) to create the most comprehensive Viking Age book of its kind ever attempted. Consisting of longer articles providing overviews of important themes, supported by shorter papers focusing on material of particular interest, this comprehensive volume covers such wide-ranging topics as social institutions, spatial issues, the Viking Age economy, warfare, beliefs, language, voyages, and links with medieval and Christian Europe. This original work, specifically oriented towards a university audience and the educated public, will have a self-evident place as an undergraduate course book and will be a standard work of reference for all those in the field.

I can't fault the scholarship, but the text is like a tray of fresh vegetables, left out on the table too long, and now limp and dessicated. Yeah, they're good for you, but they're not appealing.
I am certain I'll use this book in my research, but only when I can't find what I'm looking for in other texts that cover the subject with a bit more enthusiasm.
