Description

Hardback, XLII+338 p., 8 b/w ill., 155 x 225 mm. ISBN 9782503526652. This collection of fifteen essays by distinguished scholars addresses a formative era (approximately 500-1000 C.E.) in Northwest Europe. Myths of the time exhibit the interplay of classical, biblical, Celtic, and Germanic (including Old Norse and Old English) cultures during the Carolingian and Viking periods, showing how Christian and native religions engaged with each other. The studies also attend to current myth theory. Myths and mythology from early-medieval Northwest Europe remain influential through the works of Tolkien and contemporary self-realization movements; this volume offers readers the latest research by many of the world's leading scholars on the subject. New.
