The study of Scandinavia has been, and still is, deeply influenced by the interpretation of its earliest history that was developed in the 19th century by political, legal, and literary historians, archaeologists, and anthropologists.

In "Medieval Scandinavia", Birgit and Peter Sawyer question assumptions about early Scandinavian history, including the supposed leading role of free and equal peasants and their position in founding churches.

Includes short stories previously uncollected in a Psychotechnic League volume! At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

Clarke
