Author by: Katherine Holman Language: en Publisher by: Andrews UK Limited Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 62 Total Download: 393 File Size: 49,9 Mb Description: Most historical accounts examine the Viking Age in one part rather than the whole region of the British Isles and Ireland. Very few pay attention to the continued contact between England and Scandinavia in the post-Norman Conquest period. This book aims to offer an alternative approach by presenting a history of the Viking Age which considers the whole area up to and beyond the Norman Conquest of 1066. The Vikings have been traditionally portrayed as brutal barbarians who sailed to Britain and Ireland to loot, rape and pillage.
The evidence presented here suggests a considerably less dramatic but no less fascinating picture which reveals the Vikings' remarkable achievements and their influence in shaping the political history of these islands. Katherine Holman discusses their skills as farmers, their linguistic and artistic contribution, their rituals and customs and the conflict between paganism and Christianity, showing that the Viking cultural impact was complex and often rich. Based on extensive and original research, The Northern Conquest presents the available evidence and guides the reader through the process of interpreting it.
This is not restricted to historical documents alone, but also includes archaeology, runes, inscriptions, artefacts and linguistic evidence to provide different and complementary types of information. In addition, the book considers the contemporary question of the Vikings' genetic legacy. Interest in the Viking Age is thriving and expanding, both in Britain and in North America. 4 pl logistics. Highly readable and casting new light on the period, this book will appeal to a wide audience.
Contents. Controversy and Criticism The part on Caligula seems to state for fact that his insanity and making his horse a consul was just a ploy to annoy the senate. '.tried to make his horse a Senator, when in reality he only threatened to do so as an insult to the Senate' However a) the source seems to be off of a site that is one mans opinion and hardly a major controvery and b) Wikipedia's entry for Caligula contradicts this and has an article on his mental and physical health.
And this is a pretty good summary Here are two articles suggesting that his relationship with Incitatus was out of the ordinary The fact is 'in reality' it is all theory and speculation and historians certainly do not know fur sure what the truth is and the article should be rewritten to explain such things. Stating that he tried to insult the senate is wrong as there is also evidence to suggest mental illness. Also HH is a kids series of books (and the CBBC version) and is a watered down (albeit very mucky water) comical look at history. In CBBC mad old Gaius Julius is as crazy as bunnies, but no more than Monty Python did to the Romans in Life of Brian. Hardy 'A major controversy'. Also, on Richard III.
They do not state that Shakespeare made it all up - in fact they share blame between the Bard and Thomas More. Even then, what is King Dick III famous for? Hunchbacked usurper who slyly backstabbed his way to the top and killed the Princes in the Tower. Pretty much sums up the plot of Shakspeares play really. It was the Bard who created the hunchback image he is so famous for as well as 'my kingdom for a horse'. The two princes seems ot have been Mores idea but even so, Horrible Histories is aimed at kids - and likes to poke fun at obvious targets like the man responsible for them having to learn shakespeare (they will not have learned about More). Thats it really, just thought that these two points were really out of place and the out of the two only Caligulas claim has a reference.
Can you provide reliable sources to back up your claims (which for the record I agree with, which demonstrate the series' inclusion of wrong facts? Otherwise unfortunately the information may not be added to the article.- 08:12, 25 July 2011 (UTC) I dont claim the series included wrong fact, the article did.
Rather I was questioning the 'controversies' stated in teh article. Also, to be controversial does there not have to be some kind of base reacion. Margret Thatcher was controversial as is Frankie Boyle - but to my knowledge there was been no outcry over HH and nor any calls for controversy. If anything it is the article needs reliable sources to back up the claims for controversy. The links I have posted are common knowledge and found in any history book and point out that Horrible Histories were in fact right. Horrible Histories may paint Gaius Julius as a madman, but it is a basic version of history aimed at children. They now know that Henry VIII like to chop and change his wives and Caligula was mad.
The article therefore is in error in clainming false controversies. There have been a couple of errors though, but again errors and not controversies.
A) A comic I read once claimed that Henry VIII was responsible for bringing cabbage to England, where it was introduced in the Iron age b) in the TV series they claim in a song that George the 1st died on the toilet which actually it was George II. Again hardly controversies and certainly no point in adding them to wikipedia. Thank you for your response though. — Preceding comment added by 17:32, 3 August 2011 (UTC) Illustrator Horrible Science and Horrible Geography books don't have the same writer of illustrator.
Horrible Science (written by Nick Arnold and illustrated by Tony de Saulle) and Horrible Geography (written by Anita Ganeri illustrated by Mike Phillips). So I have made the appropriate changes.

01:22, 14 Dec 2003 (UTC) I'd rather have a mix between the two: The Awesome Egyptians (1993) (, including, the, the, and.). 11:22, 17 Dec 2003 (UTC) Innitially I chose to use the mixed version, but eventually found it was too innificiant as i usually got a bit carried away and made the amount of external links way to great. Now I just go for the simple 'Ancient Egypt' or 'British Empire', and have changed all these in all the various spin-offs accordingly.- 09:18, 14 October 2008 (UTC) How reliable are the Horrible books in general?

Nobody remembers this? It was back around 2002 or 2003. I'm surprised its not mentioned in the article. Note that the article says 'Angry Aztecs (new style) - 2 June Incredible Incas (new style) - 2 June' New style.because the books had to be rewritten, or what? - 23:40, 4 August 2008 (UTC) Recently, Terry Deary, along with all the other main spin-off series such as Horrible Science, Horrible Geography and Murderous Maths, decided to change the style of the books to make them hip and new.
It is all explained in the section in Horrible Histories entitled 'Book Makeover'.- 12:12, 12 October 2008 (UTC) Out of date Many of the sections of this article are out of date. The part about new book designs speaks about events happening in June 2008 as in the future, and the section about the Exibition is again talking about the past as if it were the future. What can we do to fix up these problems?- 15:24, 26 September 2008 (UTC) —Preceding comment added by (. ) Too close together I've noticed that in this article the lists of some sections are all bunched up. It must be someone forgetting to put bullet points -. The Awesome Egyptians The Ruthless Romans The Frightful First World War The Woeful Second World War Between 8 and 14 September 2007, the Daily Telegraph and Sunday Telegraph gave away 7 new Horrible Histories audiobooks, again read by Terry Deary and adapted from his books.
They were: The Villainous Victorians The Savage Stone Age The Angry Aztecs The Incredible Incas The Cut Throat Celts The Groovy Greeks The Barmy British Empire I'm going to change it ASAP. 08:35, 17 June 2009 (UTC)Biased Material I removed a section under 'Controversy' written by a user called 'Ian Mursell', giving a link to a critique of the Angry Aztecs. Ian Mursell works for the Mexicolore company who wrote the critique. This was the section I removed: Members of the artefacts-based teaching team Mexicolore remain unhappy with 'The Angry Aztecs' for its historical exaggerations, distortions and sensationalist approach to this ancient civilisation. The team spends many hours regularly correcting misinformation from the book picked up by primary school children in England studying the Aztecs (KS2 History). Deary simply hasn't got a good word to say for the Aztecs in the entire book! For a critique of the book, please go to 10 I didn't think it appropriate for an encylopaedic entry to publicise a self-written critique.
The tone was also too informal. —Preceding comment added by 16:36, 7 May 2010 (UTC) TV Series I can't find anything about the popular TV series on Wikipedia, there have been 2 series and there isn't any info on it here.

There were 13 episodes in Series 1 and there will be another 13 in the new series. 17:08, 5 June 2010 (UTC) I have tirelessly and time-consumingly compiled a gigantic list of sources for all the various aspects of the 'horrible' franchise.
The sources you are looking for are under 'Horrible Histories Live Action'. If you are serious about writing sections for the article (i would myself but i have no time), then please do. Remember to keep it from being a fan-guide or an advertisement, as regrettably it has already become (I'll have to rectify that soon.).- 06:20, 6 June 2010 (UTC) Missing issues now I know for a fact there was a magazine issue called Prehistoric pests, but it isn't in the magazine list. — Preceding comment added by 06:56, 27 May 2011 (UTC) sorry guys, this is a horrible science issue.

The edits are explained in the edit summaries.
Horrible Histories Vicious Vikings We Sell Any Monk
I have addressed the poor copy editing, non NPOV, removed non-free images, put together the works list from listings scattered throughout the article, added quote boxes, added wikilinks and fixed ref links (though there are still many bare urls). There is a concision of the 'other languages' section. I merged the 'reception' and stand alone 'criticism' sections as controversy sections. There were many individual's quotes praising HH but not citing separate laudable aspects of the series, so in some cases I excised the direct quote and clustered their references, to avoid repetition. In some cases the same quotes were used in 'reception' and 'critical response'. I also removed a long list of external links to single sentences in Googlebooks listed under 'books with information', although this info, for the most part, was one line.
I've added no new text, apart from copy editing. I think the article is well referenced with strong sources and covers a lot of ground. 08:45, 31 July 2011 (UTC) Thank you so much for all your hard work. You have really helped in giving this article new life, and allowed it to grow and flourish.- 08:54, 31 July 2011 (UTC) Actually, can you have another look through? Just having a skim read, there are some sentences that don't make sense e.g ' He views himself as kid who wants to share facts with other kids who wishes to 'entertain first and inform second'.
Deary does not respect authors who follow each extreme.' Thanks:).- 06:07, 1 August 2011 (UTC) Sure. I'll copy edit again - after five hours editing the eyes start to glaze. Other eyes are welcome. Thanks for all the work you have put into this Coin, a labour of love, no doubt.
Enjoy the weekend. Best wishes 16:08, 31 July 2011 (UTC) Wow, I couldn't have said it better myself. This article is one which I have invested many many hours into, and I am sooo appreciative to you for investing a lot of your own time in an article, which perhaps you previously knew nothing about, in order to help me out. Although I am in year 12, and rather busy, I will try to help you out where I can.- 06:07, 1 August 2011 (UTC) P.S, you've probably seen this already but just to state the obvious, there is a link to a peer view for this article at the top of the talk page.- 06:07, 1 August 2011 (UTC) Oh, one more thing: Right now, I think the direction of this Horrible Histories article is a bit muddled up. It originally served as just an article about the book series, but has now grown into an article which is more about the series as a whole, with a huge list of books shoved in the middle. What is your opinion on where we should go with this?- 06:11, 1 August 2011 (UTC) It's great that Wikipedia has such committed younger editors.
I'm sure you must be up to your ears in year 12. I turned up here as a fan of the TV series, not through the peer review notification, though that is always welcome. I mostly work with the articles of poets and novelists. I had been thinking about the article titling, myself.
What I recommend is this: copy over the magazine listing to 'other media'. The Theatre listing, under 'Works', seems pretty partial and there seems to have been a tonne of plays, Proms, etc. So I would take that out. I'm not sure there is much to be served by having a full listing of all national performances (also I'm not sure where you would get a comprehensive list and how to keep it up to date). Maybe develop a prose section in 'other media' on the HH in theatre, much like this article - detailing the key figures in the development, critical response etc.
I would bring Gory Stories from 'other media' over to books and add other books that might not be currently listed. I would add re-direct links at the top of this article and at the top of the works section to 'HH other media' and take out the current 'other media' listings, which just redirects anyway. Then you are left with info about books, essentially. This article seems to be basically prose with a works listing. 'Other media' seems to be basically a list (which is fine). So, I would keep the exhibition discussion here.
What are your thoughts? I am happy to keep working on it. All best wishes for the week. 08:10, 1 August 2011 (UTC) Oooo, wow another fan!
Awesome:) - 09:29, 1 August 2011 (UTC) Can I just ask why you think the magazine section should be in the HH 2009 series article?- 09:29, 1 August 2011 (UTC) For the record, I do know that HH had a prom yesterday, and it's already gotten some reviews already. In my opinion, I don't think it would be merely a huge list of concerts/stage shows/proms etc. Theoretically there should be enough info to warrant each of those things at least a paragraph.- 09:29, 1 August 2011 (UTC) Sounds good. Sounds like a lot of work, lol.
I'll do what I can. Thanks, you too.
Oh, by the way, where are you from (if you don't mind me asking)?- 09:29, 1 August 2011 (UTC) P.S. There is a link here to the HH prom which aired yesterday, in case you wanted to listen to it. I've only listened to a bit so far but it's very good! - 09:29, 1 August 2011 (UTC) Sorry, my mistake, I meant transferring magazines to 'other media'. What are your thoughts on the other transfer ideas?
I did hear the prom live on Radio 3 - much fun, though pretty hard to hear all the lyrics. 09:53, 1 August 2011 (UTC) I do like the idea of developing the theatre section which at the moment is quite lackluster. There are many available sources so taht one shouldn't be too hard. I agree that currently the 'other media' section is very superfluous. I can't help feeling that HH other media is a very very confused article, and I think we should work on giving it a direction rather than just being a miscellaneous list of things within the HH franchise.
I think that if this article is just on the books, then the exhibitions on the books should be fine. I also think that the reception section shouldn't have anything about the TV series.- 01:33, 2 August 2011 (UTC) This is an of past discussions. Do not edit the contents of this page.
