In Shaping Heroic Virtue , eight scholars from different fields of the humanities explore the reception of this notion within a broad range of artistic, political and religious contexts and map its enduring importance in the self-fashioning of monarchs and political elites. The case studies included in the volume span from Late Antiquity to the 18th century and include material from different parts of Europe, with a particular emphasis on Scandinavia. Contributors include Erik Eliasson, Stefano Fogelberg Rota, Andreas Hellerstedt, Kristine Kolrud, Jennie Nell, Nils Holger Petersen, Tania Preste and Biörn Tjällén. 410 0$aBrill's Studies in Intellectual History$v249. 606 $aMiddle Ages 606 $aVirtue$xHistory 615 0$aMiddle Ages. 615 0$aVirtue$xHistory. 676 $a179.9 702 $aFogelberg Rota$b Stefano 702 $aHellerstedt$b Andreas 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797414103321 996 $aShaping heroic virtue$93712750 997 $aUNINA
