| Though scorned as marauding northern savages, and well-documented for their ruthless and brutal raids for riches and power, the Vikings were also expert shipbuilders, cunning merchants, skilled artisans, and daring colonizers of distant lands. In his explanation of the conflict between the indigenous population of Palestine and the Zionists at the beginning of the last century, for example, Viorst, who is Jewish, makes it appear that the indigenous population instigated the hostilities against the Zionist colonizers. We should remember that viewing the colonized as perpetual victims (and thus denying them agencies as historical actors) could be just as problematic as denying or rationalizing the atrocities and exploitations visited on them by the colonizers. |
