  • MA Ritgerð Sign Language
    MA ritgerð Víkinga – og miðaldafræðum Sign Language Mjöllnir artefacts as nonverbal communication: a sociological persepective. Campbell Grade Anita Sauckel júní 2019 Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Víkinga- og miðaldafræðum Sign Language Mjöllnir artefacts as nonverbal communication: a sociological perspective. Ritgerð til M.A.-prófs í víkinga- og miðaldafræðum Campbell Grade Kt.: 280895-3509 Leiðbeinandi: Anita Sauckel júni 2019 Ágrip Þorshamrar eru frekar venjulegir smíðisgripir frá Skandinavíu á víkingaöld. Á sama tíma voru að vísu líka kristilegir krossar til, sem að þessu leyti hefur haft áhrif á túlkun þorshamrana. Þessi ritgerð ætlar að efla notkun félagsfræðilegra kenninga í rannsókn á Þorshömrum, en markmið með því er að auka innsýn okkar inn í hlutverk skartgripa í samfélaginu á víkingaöld. Notaðar verður m. a. kenningar symbolic captial og impression management, en einnig verður rætt um dýrkun Þórs í samhengi við Mjölni, og þá verður líka tekið tillit til rannsóknar í fornleifafræði. Skoðun mín er í stuttu máli sú að þessir skartgripir snéru sér ekki til þeirra sem báru þá, heldur til annarra persóna í samfélaginu sem voru í samskipti við eigendur slíkra hamra. 1 Abstract Mjöllnir pendants and rings are common artefacts from Viking Age Scandinavia, but which also overlap with the creation of Christian crosses in the same areas which therefore have influenced the interpretation of the function of the Mjöllnir emulations. I would like to propose that sociology could offer insight into their function during this period as well as the relationship between material culture and social structure. I use a combination of several sociological theories including impression management and symbolic capital to explain the motivations behind the miniature hammers.

Killings and David Widger PREPARER'S NOTE: Originally written in Latin in the early years of the 13th Century A.D. by the Danish historian Saxo, of whom little is known except his name. The text of this edition is based on that published as "The Nine Books of the Danish History of Saxo Grammaticus", translated by Oliver Elton (Norroena Society, New York, 1905). This edition is in the PUBLIC DOMAIN in the United States. This electronic edition was edited, proofed, and prepared by Douglas B. Killings. The preparer would like to thank Mr. James W. Marchand and Mr. Jessie D. Hurlbut for their invaluable assistance in the production of this electronic text. Thank you. I am indebted to you both. Although Saxo wrote 16 books of his "Danish History", only the first nine were ever translated by Mr. Oliver Elton; it is these nine books that are here included. As far as the preparer knows, there is (unfortunately) no public domain English translation of Books X-XVI. Those interested in the latter books should search for the translation mentioned below. Contents SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY: INTRODUCTION. THE DANISH HISTORY OF SAXO GRAMMATICUS. SAXO'S POSITION. LIFE OF SAXO. PREFACE. THE HISTORY. BOOK ONE. HISTORY OF THE WORK. BOOK TWO THE MSS.

  • To Rede to Rown
    SVANTE NORR To Rede and to Rown (w) DDigitaligital Decennial Edition 1998-2008 OPIA 17 Published with grants from The Bank of Sweden Tercentenary Foundation Abstract Norr, S., 1998. To Rede and to Rown. Expressions of Early Scandinavian Kingship in Written Sources. Occasional Papers in Archaeology 17. Uppsala, 253 pp., 4 plates. Mono- graph, ISSN 1100-6358, ISBN 91-506-1277-8. The subject of this thesis is early Scandinavian kingship, and the analysis is based on a number of written sources and runic inscriptions. A study of early Germanic kingship focuses primarily on the development of Gothic kingship from the fourth to the sixth century. The royal attributes expressed in kennings and heiti in Ynglingatal are analysed, showing that the poem presents the development of kingship as a process in four stages. The dating of this work and its style of composition is also discussed. A study of the chapters in Ynglinga saga which deal with King Ingiald illráði examines the role of coun- sel, the political structure of the Svear and high kingship as a structural problem. Vita Anskarii is analysed with particular emphasis on the interaction between kings, noblemen and the ‘people’ in political decision-making. Finally, the associations between kings and runes are discussed, and the inscription of the Sparlösa stone is reinterpreted as a monument over a royal succession. Keywords: kingship, historical analogy, textual archaeology, written sources, counsel, rune © Svante Norr ISSN 1100-6358 ISBN 91-506-1277-8 Editor of digital decennial edition

  • The Hamlet Mythos 103
    THE HAMLET MYTHOS 103 The Hamlet Mythos Christopher L. Bailey Faculty Sponsor: Shelley Sinclair, Department of History ABSTRACT In the twelfth century, an obscure historian named Saxo Grammaticus recounted the tale of “Amleth.” That Shakespeare later borrowed the idea for his Hamlet from Saxo is not in dispute. What is intriguing to scholars, however, is the origin of Saxo’s noble Dane. Thus the focus of my research is an investigation into whether Amleth is an actual historical figure or simply a literary construct. Histories and legends from various parts of Europe include characters with elements similar to Saxo’s protagonist; however, no one character embodies all the elements that form the essence of Amleth. After critical analysis of primary sources from Scandinavia, England, Ireland and the Mediterranean region, it is my conclusion that Amleth is an amalgamation of both history and legend—that the historical character of Anlaf Cuaran, tenth century Danish conqueror of parts of Britain and Ireland, begins to be associated with legendary figures from the classical world and, through Saxo, is reborn as Amleth, heroic Fool of Denmark. This research is important not only for illuminating the origins of the renowned dramatic figure, but also for its contribu- tions to the historiography of medieval Europe. INTRODUCTION “To be, or not to be, that is the question...”1 With this line, William Shakespeare immortalized a character whose life and death become consumed by vengeance for the death of his father. Despite voluminous texts attest- ing to Hamlet’s literary value, the Hamlet mythos (that is, the origin of the Hamlet character) remains enshrouded in mystery.
