These contacts are analyzed on several levels: ideas of Scandinavians about Russians and Rus; general features of veneration of saints in the religion and culture of both countries; exchange of family and dynastic names between the two nations; adopting of some names and even principles of naming. Bibliography (pp. 415-451), genealogy. A previous book by F. Uspenskii, Name and Power: Choosing the Name as an Instrument of Dynastic Struggle in Medieval Scandinavia. (2001), is also available.
