The Conversion of Scandinavia

- Vikings, Merchants, and Missionaries in the Remaking of Northern Europe

About The Conversion of Scandinavia

Overturning the received narrative of Europe's military and religious conquest and colonization of the region, the author contends that rather than acting as passive recipients, Scandinavians converted to Christianity because it was in individual chieftains' political, economic and cultural interests to do so.
