内容説明

This book demonstrates the breadth of Gurevich's work and his ability to synthesize historical, anthropological and semiotic approaches to culture. Informed by the history of mentalities as practised by the French school of Le Goff and Duby, his broader view of European culture leads him to reconstruct a richer and more varied tapestry of civilization and everyday life.In this volume, Gurevich discusses a range of topics including practices of gift exchange in Scandinavia, the deities and heroes of Germanic poetry and the image of the Beyond in the Middle Ages.
