Description
A unique and surreal publication unlike any before it, this atmospheric book combines photographs, illustrations, and scholarship-grounded discussion from artists and historical reenactors Kevin Alexandrowicz and Devon Rawlings to explore the topic of death in the Viking Age (around the years 800 to 1100). For example, the authors create characters inspired by graves while discussing what is and is not known about numerous burials from the period. In addition, this experimental edition includes introductions from archaeologists Leszek Gardeła (Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Germany) and Giorgia Sottotetti (National Museum of Iceland) alongside a wide variety of supplemental items.
