A few days ago the book "Scandinavia in the Middle Ages 900–1550. Between Two Oceans" by Kirsi Salonen and Kurt Villads Jensen was published by Routledge. Kurt Villads Jensen is professor of Medieval history at the department of history and the director of the centre for Medieval studies. To mark the publication, he told us about the newly published book.
