Viking Congress
"The history of the Viking Congress goes back to 1946 when the idea was conceived by Robert Bruce, when he was Area Officer in Aberdeen of the British Council. It was pursued by his successor Mr. A. C. Davis. The working title for the first congress was Scoto-Scandinavian Conference, which was changed to the Viking Congress at the suggestion of Eric Linklater. The first Viking Congress was held at Lerwick, Shetland as a joint effort by the British Council and the University of Aberdeen. The Viking Congresses are multinational, interdisciplinary conferences within Viking Age studies. Viking Congresses have been held on a three- to four-year basis since 1950, by turns in Scandinavia and the British Isles. The objective of the conferences is to create a common forum for the most current research and theories within VikingAge studies, and to enhance communication and collaboration between leading scholars within the field, crossing geographical and disciplinary borders. The main disciplines are archaeology, history, numismatics, philology, name-studies and runology. The official language of the conference is English. Besides the academic emphasis an important part of the conference has always been to introduce the participants to the hosting country and its culture. Therefore, excursions to museums and significant cultural sites have played an important role."
Viking Settlements and Viking Society Papers from the Proceedings of the Sixteenth Viking Congress, Reykjavík and Reykholt, 16th -23rd August 2009. The Publication can be ordered online through the University of Iceland Press" [WorldCat.org] [Table of Contents] [UI Press LINK] [Viking Congress]
"This volume contains 31 peer-reviewed papers selected from those presented at the 16th Viking congress held in Reykjavík and Reykholt in Iceland in August 2009. It lives up to the interdisciplinary challenge by covering a wide range of subjects, rooted in the past, but connecting to the present with a discussion of the role of Viking studies in education and their contribution to understanding the environmental issues of the present."
