ISBN: 9780197264508 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Silver Economies, Monetisation & Society in Scandinavia, AD 800-1100
ISBN: 9788779345850 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Viking Age was a period of great economic complexity and experimentation in Scandinavia. By the end of the period, an ancient 'display' economy, based on ornaments of precious metal, had been largely replaced by counted money and national coinages. But this development was neither simple nor linear: for much of the Viking Age, several silver economies co-existed and interacted. The role of silver in Viking-age society and economy has recently developed into an exciting interdisciplinary topic for research. New evidence raises debates on the nature of valuables, bullion, monetisation,...
