About the event

Research on women of the Viking world has gained momentum in recent years, with new perspectives and possibilities being introduced. Traditional views are still prominent however, with women often diminished to spectators within a patriarchal society. However, there is growing evidence to suggest women enjoyed more active and varied societal roles which are far more significant than have previously been considered. Thus, this conference aims to bring together scholars from all disciplines of the field to deliver this new broader perspective on women of the Viking world.
