Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book explains Viking symbols where they are effective: in use. Instead of retelling myths, it shows how Mjölnir, Gungnir, runes, ships, Yggdrasil, Valknut, and the animal style (Borre-Urnes) function as consecration, framework, threshold, and memory-on the body, on stone, on the house, and on the ship. The result is a comprehensible, reliable guide that separates historical forms from modern projections.What you get:¿ Clear explanations of Mjölnir, Gungnir, runes, ships and picture stones, Yggdrasil, Walknut, animal emblems (raven, wolf, bear) and ornamental styles from Borre to Urnes.¿ Context instead of buzzwords: archaeology, textual sources, and stylistic history intertwine; each interpretation is linked to place, medium, and date.¿ Orientation in sensitive areas: difference between Viking-era runic practice and early modern Icelandic sigils; responsible use of historical symbols today.¿ For beginners and advanced learners: narrative, well-structured, scientifically sound-without esoteric promises.¿ Plus: glossary with 30 key terms.Who is this book for For anyone who does not want to see 'Norse symbols' as arbitrary logos, but as a living, easily readable cultural technique - from runestones to churches with Urnes portals, from boat graves to belt buckles. Anyone who wants to design museums, reenactments, designs, or lessons with context will find the tools and language they need here.
