Vörulýsing
Historically, Viking Age pagan Scandinavians often wore amulets depicting the hammer of the beloved god Thor. This beautiful, art-filled, and scholarship-grounded book examines this phenomenon, highlighting and discussing a variety of examples from the historical record. It additionally contains discussion of the contemporary revitalization of this ancient practice far beyond Viking Age Scandinavia. Authored by folklorist Joseph S. Hopkins, thoroughly illustrated by artist Jacqui Alberts Lund, and introduced by scholar Katherine Beard, this book serves as a solid introduction to the topic that encourages readers to dig deeper.
