Course Description

These medieval Scandinavians plundered the Christian and Islamic world, conquered England, founded Russia, and discovered the new world (North America). But who were these Vikings and why were they so successful? They were warriors, traders, and explorers, but also craftsmen, poets and farmers. This series will explore the culture, history, and technology of the Viking Age. In contrast to the earlier course, the emphasis in episode two will be on the Viking mind: beliefs, lifestyle, politics, and religion - especially Norse mythology. Type: Lecture Only.
