About This Book

Essän kartlägger träldomens uppkomst och ställning i Norden genom en genomgång av gamla landskapslagar, isländska sagor och folkminnen. Författaren beskriver hur klassskillnader framställts som gudagivna, de sociala och rättsliga villkoren för trälar och trälkvinnor, deras arbetsuppgifter, klädnad och beteckningar, antalet och karaktäriserande drag, samt träldomens härstamning genom krig och fångenskap. Avsnitt behandlar hur fria människor kunde bli trälar, slavhandel, kristendomens införande och dess påverkan på träldomen, samt de processer som ledde till träldomens avskaffande.
