Rise of Christianity in Northern Europe,

Carole M. Cusack presents a study of the process of conversion among the Germanic people -- including these to Scandinavia and Iceland -- from the third to eleventh centuries. This book begins by examining previous scholarship on this conversion process. It then proceeds to develop a new model of conversion appropriate to the Germanic peoples. Cusack extends this model to compare six different Germanic conversions.

Carole M. Cusack is Lecturer in the School of Studies in Religion, University of Sydney, Australia
