Download or read book The History of Iceland written by Gunnar Karlsson and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iceland is unique among European societies in having been founded as late as the Viking Age and in having copious written and archaeological sources about its origin. Gunnar Karlsson, that country's premier historian, chronicles the age of the Sagas, consulting them to describe an era without a monarch or central authority. Equating this prosperous time with the golden age of antiquity in world history, Karlsson then marks a correspondence between the Dark Ages of Europe and Iceland's "dreary period", which started with the loss of political independence in the late thirteenth century and culminated with an epoch of poverty and humility, especially during the early Modern Age. Iceland's renaissance came about with the successful struggle for independence in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and with the industrial and technical modernization of the first half of the twentieth century. Karlsson describes the rise of nationalism as Iceland's mostly poor peasants set about breaking with Denmark, and he shows how Iceland in the twentieth century slowly caught up economically with its European neighbors.

Book excerpt: Iceland is a land full of volcanoes, glaciers, geysers, and theNorthern Lights, and home to a culture of inventive spirits,steeped in art, ingenuity, creativity, and a long history ofstorytelling. Of course, stories aren't limited to just beingtold with words. Just as often, stories are told with pictures.In Iceland, there is a tradition called "Drink & Draw," wherebar patrons enjoy a cocktail and draw a sketch based ona particular theme. The sketches are then collected andpublished in small booklets. Reyka Vodka has producedthis book to showcase its homeland through a collectionof drawings doodled while enjoying a cocktail, and thenphotographed by Icelandic photographer Snorri Sturluson.Icelandic culture is celebrated through the drawings andthrough a look at different elements that are uniquelyIcelandic-from the music and art, to the food, folklore, andnatural beauty that make Iceland, well, Iceland.

Download or read book Late Cainozoic Floras of Iceland written by Thomas Denk and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-28 with total page 863 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being the only place in the northern North Atlantic yielding late Cainozoic terrestrial sediments rich in plant fossils, Iceland provides a unique archive for vegetation and climate development in this region. This book includes the complete plant fossil record from Iceland spanning the past 15 million years. Eleven sedimentary rock formations containing over 320 plant taxa are described. For each flora, palaeoecology and floristic affinities within the Northern Hemisphere are established. The exceptional fossil record allows a deeper understanding of the role of the “North Atlantic Land Bridge” for intercontinental plant migration and of the Gulf Stream-North Atlantic Current system for regional climatic evolution. ’Iceland sits as a “fossil trap” on one of the most interesting biogeographic exchange routes on the planet - the North Atlantic. The fossil floras of Iceland document both local vegetational response to global climate change, and more importantly, help to document the nature of biotic migration across the North Atlantic in the last 15 million years. In this state-of-the-art volume, the authors place sequential floras in their paleogeographic, paleoclimatic and geologic context, and extract a detailed history of biotic response to the dynamics of physical change.’ Bruce H. Tiffney, University of California, Santa Barbara ’This beautifully-illustrated monograph of the macro- and microfloras from the late Cenozoic of Iceland is a worthy successor to Oswald Heer’s “Flora fossilis arctica”. Its broad scope makes it a must for all scientists interested in climatic change and palaeobiogeography in the North Atlantic region. It will remain a classic for years to come.’ David K. Ferguson, University of Vienna
