AB The Viking culture has been one of the major influencers of the history of Europe, especially in the northern territories, such as the United Kingdom. This dissertation consists on the analysis of the historical information about this culture in Britain and its future influences. Also, it establishes a comparison between this information and the current prototypical image about Vikings. The aim of this analysis is to understand how and why a prototypical image has been developed through history. Besides, it will desmythify or confirm some of the most popular clichés that surround this culture nowadays. In order to achieve this, it has been used multimedia materials such as films or TV series, and they have been compared to the historical sources written by researchers and academics who are experts of this field.
