| Abstract | This strand of six sessions was organised to provide a unified forum for the discussion of Scandinavian history, which last year had been divided into several scattered sessions, some of which conflicted. The third of the six sessions will continue to look at the Danish Empire from the 12th to the 15th century. The first two papers will examine the Danish 'imperial' presence in the Baltic while the third will look at the reign of a Danish king of the later middle ages in an imperial light. |
