Ancient Civilizations: The Vikings

Plot

Part of the excellent historical series created by the Films for the Humanities and Sciences, Ancient Civilizations: The Vikings travels back to medieval times to examine Viking culture after the fall of the Roman Empire. Historians discuss the relationships between the Vikings and Christendom, including the Church's attempts to convert the aggressive Vikings and the Vikings' impact on commerce in the region. Art scholars display and discuss Viking art as well as the importance of the Viking longship in their warlike way of life. ~ Sean Hurley, Rovi
