This is a past event

Do we share a sense of humour with Vikings? Join Dr Hannah Burrows for mini lecture on Friday 26 March at 15:00 GMT to discover what might have made the Vikings laugh, and what was considered a serious matter in medieval Scandinavia. She will explore what puns, jokes, insults, and satire can tell us about early Scandinavian culture and social concerns.
