A book review by Assistant Professor of History John Eldevik appears in the most recent issue of the German Studies Review. The review discusses a new monograph by Eric Knibbs of Williams College titled Ansgar, Rimbert and the Forged Foundations of Hamburg-Bremen (Burlington, VT: Ashgate, 2011) that offers an important reassessment of the sources, particularly papal charters, relating to the foundation of the archdiocese of Hamburg-Bremen in the early Middle Ages and the mission to christianize Scandinavia.
