Bøker i The Nordic Series-serien

Offers an exploration of medieval Scandinavia, which questions assumptions about early Scandinavian history. The book traces the development of Scandinavia from the early 9th century through the second and third decades of the 16th century.

Here is a rich compendium of hundreds of legends, stories, beliefs, and magic collected from oral sources in preindustrial Scandinavia. In this rural society, the people lived close to nature and believed themselves an integral part of it. This volume focuses on beliefs that illustrate the central aspects of a traditional worldview, rather than on prose narratives considered for their literary value.
