Overview
O?ffers a complete narrative of the development of Nordicism, from its roots in the National Romantic movement of the late eighteenth century
Examines Nordicism as a phenomenon with its own narrative, rather than as discreet episodes in works studying aspects of Eugenics, Nationalism, Nazism and the reception history of ancient Nordic culture
Defines Nordicism as a process of myth creation protecting both the individual and society from the challenges and terror of an ever-changing and accelerating state of modernity
