Thousands of pubs and shops in Scandinavia regions are named "Vikings". Many Scandinavians are nowadays proud of being descendents of Vikings. Who were they?
Since this book is about this nebulous concept of Vikings, it will embrace all these areas and periods. It will be concerned not just with how Viking identity has been redefined in medieval and modern times, but also with how cultural identities were formed and negotiated in the 8th–12th centuries, in a variety of geographical contexts.
