The film was about Lief Eriksson, or Leif the Lucky, the leader of possibly the first group of Europeans to reach North America. The review is positive, describing the film as ‘a remarkable screen achievement’, featuring dragon ships and Viking dress and armour. The reviewer also notes that Lief had a saga written about him, although the saga (story) that provides the most information about Lief is the saga about his father, Saga of Erik the Red’s.

Title A name given to the resource Ancient Viking Ships Subject The topic of the resource Brisbane, Gokstad, Norway, Norwegian, QLD, Queensland, The Queenslander, reconstruction, ship, ships, shipbuilding, Viking, vikings Description An account of the resource An article on page 46 of the Brisbane newspaper The Queenslander on May 26, 1932. The public interest piece reports on the decision of the Norwegian government to reconstruct the Viking-Age Gokstad ship from the pieces recovered during excavation. It is suggested that the Gokstad ship would be the worlds oldest seagoing ship. The final paragraph of the article, which begins with ‘There was a virile romance about the vikings and their ships’, claims that it was a Viking tradition for captives to be tied down and crushed by the ships when they hit the water when being launched. Not surprisingly, this ‘fact’ is not found in modern scholarly works about the Vikings.

Title A name given to the resource Medievalism on the Streets Description An account of the resource This Collection analyses popular medievalism in material and public culture from the mid-nineteenth century to the present, with an emphasis on popular medievalist theatre, parades and public spectacles, as well as recreational, literary and political associations. It explores the ways in which medievalism was not simply derivative but also local and disctinctive. In this Collection you will find items relating to medievalism in public contexts and popular culture, and the revisitation or reenactment of the Middle Ages by groups such as the Society for Creative Anachronism.

Title A name given to the resource The Viking Battle Ship Subject The topic of the resource Viking, vikings, armour, Brisbane, Brisbane Courier, church, clothing, fete, fête, St. Paul’s church, parade, QLD, Queensland, recreation, saga, sword, swords, battle, battles, ships, ship, weapons, weapon, weaponry Description An account of the resource An article on page 4 of the Brisbane Courier newspaper on July 10, 1908. The article is about the decision to make a Viking battleship (in other articles about the event it is referred to as a Viking Dragon Ship) the centre-piece of a church fête. The decision was made by the workers of St. Paul’s church, Leichhardt Street, in Brisbane. The article notes that as Vikings collected ransom from those whom they raided, the ‘modern imitators of that great race of people’ would also demand ransom, but it would be used for a good cause. Entertainment at the fête included sagas, which were perhaps excerpts from sagas about the Vikings written in Iceland in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. It is also reported that there was a street parade the night before the fête which featured a band of modern Vikings led by a Jarl (Old Norse for Earl) wearing ‘skyrtas and kyrtils [Old Norse for shirts and tunic/gowns], and ring armour, and armed with swords and battle axes’. The use of Viking terminology is an unusual feature of this article. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Anon.

Title A name given to the resource Viking Trade City Subject The topic of the resource Brisbane, Brisbane Courier, burial, Denmark, Germany, Hedeby, QLD, Queensland, ship, tourism, trade, trading, ships, Viking, vikings Description An account of the resource An article on page 8 of the Brisbane Courier newspaper on December 29, 1930. The article reports on the forthcoming excavations of the main Viking trading centre of the ninth to eleventh centuries, Hedeby. The site is now in northern Germany in South Slesvig, but belonged to Denmark during the Viking Age. The excavation was prompted by the discovery of two burials and a 60ft ship, as well as defensive banks. The article notes that there was much interest in the excavation, and this presumably extended to the newspaper readers in Brisbane. Today Hedeby is a major tourist attraction and includes a museum, a recreation of part of the town, and fully reconstructed defensive banks.
