Class Description:
More than almost any other medieval topic, "The Vikings" is one that has at least a passing familiarity for many Americans--and certainly most Minnesotans! In the popular imagination, Vikings were Scandinavians, pagans, seafaring marauders in dragon-prowed ships, fearsome warriors in horned helmets, and intrepid explorers who ranged from their homelands as far as Greenland and North America. Most of these things are certainly true (although the image of the horn-helmeted Viking is actually an invention of 19th-century opera rather than medieval reality!) but even the truths only tell part of the story. Farmers as much as warriors, traders as much as raiders, active in the Baltic, the Mediterranean, and the Near East as much as the North Atlantic, Vikings played a dynamic and versatile role on the stage of world history from roughly 750 to 1100 A.D. We will explore the breadth and complexity of that role while endeavoring to separate historical reality from modern (mis)conception and popular imagination. Through a mixture of lecture, discussion, textbook reading, study of written and archeological evidence, and analysis of modern representations of Vikings, this course will deepen student appreciation and understanding of the Vikings' rich and multifaceted history and their impact on the medieval world. It will also emphasize and foster the practice of a broad range of transferable skills including clear and effective written argumentation and interpretation, close reading, document analysis, and critical thinking.

Class Description:
Terrorizing the locals from Byzantium to Ireland with their swift attacks, the Vikings acquired a savage reputation in the minds and stories of their victims, typically inhabitants of medieval Christian Europe. Yet the enduring influence of the medieval Scandinavians?both in the medieval world and in the modern imagination?exceeds their violent behavior. Not only successful raiders, they were also astute merchants, diligent farmers, skilled craftsmen, and savvy political players. The Vikings raided AND traded from Norway to Newfoundland, from Sweden to the Silk Road. They sailed their dragon-prowed ships over the treacherous, frozen North Sea, to the North Atlantic, and through the Straits of Gibraltar into the warm, blue waters of the Mediterranean. In the process, they circulated not only fear, but goods and culture. Through an array of sources, including archaeological studies and translations of medieval histories and literature, this course examines the Viking presence throughout the medieval world and follows their western expansion across the North Atlantic. We will also consider their worldviews, literature, and artistic expressions, trace their transition from paganism to Christianity, unravel their political organizations, and delve into daily life and culture. Throughout the course, we will analyze how the Vikings have been (mis)understood and (mis)represented over the centuries, and will gain an understanding of how we know what we know about them.
