Dayanna Knight. Viking Nations. Pen and World 2016. Hardcover in DJ Very Good/Very Good Unused Octavo 271 pp

 “Viking Nations is an interdisciplinary consideration of medieval North Atlantic settlement that focuses on not only site-related identity but also the active choices made to adopt elements of identity. It utilizes comparative analysis of evidence to highlight terrestrial and marine drivers to identity development in relation to the site context. By adopting this approach it is possible to more closely examine not only the settlement of the North Atlantic but also the apparent taming of the Vikings concurrently taking place. This book illustrates the priorities expressed by medieval settling populations in relation to particular contexts. It proposes a method for planning ships’ cargos which corresponds to identity development amongst the constituent Atlantic archipelagos.”

Morawiec, Jakub, Aleksandra Jochymek, and Grzegorz Bartusik.  Social Norms in Medieval Scandinavia. ARC Humanities Press 2019 Pictorial hardcover. Very Good Unused Octavo 268 pp

  “The chapters in this volume address numerous and intri-cate questions regarding Old Norse culture; rituals, social ties, social norms, outlaws, lawmaking, and cognitive structures. The main sources for the discussion are the Icelandic family sagas, the kings’ sagas, as well as Eddic poetry, laws, and sagas such as Karlamagnús saga. The diversity of topics is the strength of the volume. This is possible due to the exceptional source situation that offers us almost endless opportunities of discussing different aspects of the Old Norse culture.”

Medine, Peter edit. Roger Ascham Toxophilus. (1545) Arizona Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies 2002 Hardcover in DJ Like New/Like New Unused Octavo 187 pp

“Toxophilus is a book about longbow archery by Roger Ascham, first published in London in 1545. Dedicated to King Henry VIII, it is the first book on archery written in English.” Wikipedia

“Roger Ascham (c. 1515 – 30 December 1568) was an English scholar and didactic writer, famous for his prose style, his promotion of the vernacular, and his theories of education. He acted as Princess Elizabeth’s tutor in Greek and Latin between 1548 and 1550, and served in the administrations of Edward VI, Mary I, and Elizabeth I.

The name Ascham could be more properly spelt Askham, being derived from Askham near York. He was born at Kirby Wiske, a village in the North Riding of Yorkshire, near Northallerton, the third son of John Ascham, steward to Baron Scrope of Bolton. His mother, Margaret, is said to have come from the Conyers family, but this is speculation. Thomas and John were Roger’s two older brothers, while Anthony Ascham was the youngest son of the Ascham family. The authority for this statement, as for most here concerning Ascham’s early life, is his close friend Edward Grant (1540s–1601), headmaster of the Royal College of St. Peter at Westminster—better known as Westminster School—who collected and edited his letters and delivered a panegyrical oration on his life in 1576.” GoodReads

Chojnacka, Monica. Working Women of Early Modern Venice. Johns Hopkins University 2001 Hardcover in DJ Like New /Like New Unused  Octavo 188 pp

In this groundbreaking book, Monica Chojnacka argues that the women of early modern Venice occupied a more socially powerful space than traditionally believed. Rather than focusing exclusively on the women of noble or wealthy merchant families, Chojnacka explores the lives of women—unmarried, married, or widowed—who worked for a living and helped keep the city running through their labor, services, and products.

Among Chojnacka’s surprising findings is the degree to which these working women exercised control over their own lives.

“The original publication of the 114 seals and seal impressions excavated from Gordion in Turkey, this book is the first diachronic monograph on the ongoing excavations at Gordion and provides the first historical and archaeological overview of the entire site, with the most recent archaeological developments taken fully into account. The seals range in date from ca. 1800 BCE to 400 CE, from the Early Bronze Age through the Roman period, covering some of the most tumultuous and most interesting eras of Anatolian history. Dusinberre offers insights into the individuals living at Gordion, as well as sweeping developments in societal constructs at the Phrygian capital. In addition to detailed information about the seals and 237 meticulous illustrations of all related artifacts, this study examines their excavated contexts and considers the seals in light of associated finds and architecture.”
