Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book portrays the history of Sweden from its pagan beginnings (100 B.C.) through the end of the Early Middle Ages (1061 A.D.). The stories that make up this period are often violent accounts of legendary and semi-legendary kings and heroes, and frequently include the supernatural and fantastical, which were an integral part of these cultures. The bookâs narrative is a fascinating blend of history, epic poetry, mythology, and folklore. The author weaves a tapestry of famous events and figures from the era. Readers are introduced to Odin, the chief Norse god, and his migration to Sweden, after which the author explores the reigns of the Swedish Ynglinga dynasty, the advent of Christianity in the Viking Age, and the complex relationships between legendary Swedish kings and their Danish and Norwegian counterparts. This book offers a powerful insight into the rich, violent, and complex world of the Vikings, and the pagan and early Christian cultures out of which they came.
