Runes and Their Secrets Studies in Runology

This is a collection of articles written mainly in English dealing with a wide range of runological topics, all written by recognised scholars. The articles originated as papers read at an international runic symposium that was held in the year 2000. The book embraces Danish runic-inscriptions from the first to the sixteenth century, including such topics as the names of the runes, their chronology, literacy, runic coins etcetera. There are also articles on the oldest runic research and runic magic. Several of the articles present brand new knowledge, for example about runic encryption of military and erotic secrets from the middle of the sixteenth century.Fellows-Jensen, Gillian is the author of 'Runes and Their Secrets Studies in Runology', published 2006 under ISBN 9788763504287 and ISBN 8763504286.
