Description

William Morris wrote a fantasy book titled The House of the Wolfings.

It is written in an archaic style and contains a significant amount of poetry.

It is a beautifully rebuilt depiction of the life of the Germanic Gothic tribes.

Morris integrates his own idealistic beliefs with the culture and language of his subjects as it was truly understood at the time.

He depicts them as being simple and hardworking people who were moved to heroism by the attacks of imperial Rome to protect their families and freedom.
