Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the Kensington Runestone, an alleged historical artifact discovered 130 years ago in Minnesota that has divided historians for decades. Through linguistic and runological analysis, the author demonstrates that the inscription's language, characters, and historical context are fundamentally incompatible with the 14th-century date claimed by its proponents. The author explores the broader historical and linguistic context of the runic script, contextualizing the Kensington Runestone within the development and usage of runes throughout Scandinavia. The book delves into the evolution of the runic alphabet and the linguistic changes that occurred in Swedish during the 14th century, demonstrating that the language of the inscription aligns with modern Swedish dialects, not the language of medieval times. Challenging the authenticity of the runestone, the author presents a compelling case based on the inscription's anachronistic language, the use of modern runic characters, and inconsistencies with the historical record. This book sheds new light on the ongoing debate surrounding the Kensington Runestone, providing a rigorous and evidence-based analysis that will appeal to historians, linguists, and anyone interested in the intersection of language, history, and archaeological controversies. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333586850_0
