Module description
This module introduces students to the material culture of Viking and medieval Scandinavia. Through a series of workshops at the British Museum, British Library and other London-based institutions, students will gain first-hand experience working with artefacts and manuscripts from the period. These workshops will complement a series of seminars held in the Department in which students will examine more broadly the archaeology and history of the period, as well as the theoretical background to the use of objects as sources for history and culture.
Preparatory Reading
A general reading list will be provided at the start of term, after which detailed reading lists will be provided on a weekly basis.
