MARC recordDa nordboerne blev kristne / Mads Lidegaard.
| Title: | Da nordboerne blev kristne / Mads Lidegaard. |
| Translated title: | When the Norse became Christian. |
| Author(s): | Lidegaard, Mads. |
| Date: | 2001. |
| Language: | Danish. |
| In: | Grønland. (2001.), Vol. 49(3) (2001) |
| Abstract: | Describes Norse migrations and settlements as background to christening, and written sources in sagas, English, Scottish and Irish, as well as archaeology. Irish Christianity was distinct, with links with Egypt, Syria and eastern Mediterranean, partly because of "relatives" in Galatia and Galicia. After Roman departure from Britain, Irish Church had big impact on Anglo-Saxon invaders - Christ was seen as Victor more than as Victim. Even Viking rovers were largely Christian in Ireland by 900 AD, and conversion was going on in Norway around same time. During changeover, call on Thor in storms at sea could still be noted. Norway's full conversion under Olav was forcible. In 985 half or more of Iceland was Christian. Saga account of Leif and mother Thjodhilde in Greenland, and attitudes to Christianity, is described. |
