What happens when scholars cross outside the perceived ‘boundaries’ of their discipline? What problems arise when a scholar trained in one field employs materials or methodologies from an adjacent subject area, engaging with new sources, research methodologies, and traditions, and how can such issues be resolved? Taking as its starting point the increasing shift towards interdisciplinarity seen within Viking-age studies, this collection of essays aims to explore the benefits and pitfalls that can arise from crossing disciplinary borders in this area, and to gain new knowledge about how to address issues that have occurred in previous examples of interdisciplinary combinations. The volume draws together contributions from authors in different disciplines, among them philology, history, archaeology, literary studies, folklore studies and history of religion, in order to hold a constructive and multi-perspective discussion on the benefits and issues arising from interdisciplinary research in studies of the Viking Age. Together, these chapters aim to bridge the gap that often exists between scholars from adjacent fields of research, and in doing so, to stimulate the trend in interdisciplinary approaches to research that can improve our understanding of the past.

The fifteenth volume in the series “Studies in the History of the Swedish Language” consists of 21 articles chosen from the presentations of the 15th conference on Swedish language history that was organized by the Department of Scandinavian studies at the University of Tartu, 13–15 June 2018. The main theme of the book comprises language contact and language history. The contacts between Swedish and other languages and what these involve have constituted an active area of research during the past years. This topic is naturally linked to the historical situation of Swedish in Estonia. The articles in the volume cover a wide spectrum of research areas, including language variation and change, Swedish dialects, historical corpus linguistics, multilingualism, translation theory, onomastics, etc. With this volume the editors hope to further stimulate the notable increase of interest in the history of Swedish and not least in the study of various language contacts. Den femtonde volymen i serien Studier i svensk språkhistoria består av 21 utvalda artiklar som återgår på föredrag vid konferensen Svenska språkets historia 15, arrangerad av Institutionen för skandinavistik vid Tartu universitet 13–15 juni 2018. Boken har liksom konferensen huvudtemat Språkmöte och språkhistoria. Svenskans möte med andra språk och vad dessa möten innebär har varit ett livaktigt forskningsområde under de senaste åren, och temat anknyter också naturligt till svenska språkets historiska situation i Estland. Artiklarna i volymen täcker ett brett spektrum av forskningsområden, bl.a. språklig variation och ändring, svenska dialekter, historisk korpuslingvistik, flerspråkighet, översättning, namnforskning m.m. Med volymen hoppas redaktionen ytterligare stimulera det tydligt ökade intresset för svensk språkhistoria och inte minst för studiet av språkmöten av skilda slag.
