Beyond Disciplines 30Th September – 2Nd October, 2019 Bilbao
978-0-6485799-1-5 22nd IIWC International Symposium Wooden Heritage Conservation: beyond disciplines 30th September – 2nd October, 2019 Bilbao 978-0-6485799-1-5 Proceedings Editors Dr. Tanya L. Park, Australia 1 ISBN 978-0-6485799-1-5 Preface and Acknowledgements Since the ICOMOS International Wood Committee, IIWC, was established in 1975, the need for a set of conservation principles has been a continuous theme in the Committee’s ongoing discussions and activities. In a session of the of the 19th General Assembly of ICOMOS held in Delhi on 15th December 2017 the new IIWC ‘Principles for the Conservation of the Wooden Built Heritage’ were adopted as ICOMOS doctrinal text. These new ‘Principles’ replace those adopted previously in 1999. After the success of the 2018 symposium organized in York (UK), the challenge was to take a step further with the organization in the Basque country of a symposium and a course intended to amplify the effort in order to give a focus of a holistic approach to wooden heritage conservation that extends beyond structures to include together with the materiality of wood construction, its complex intangible side. Its scope included the diversity of professions involved, possible approaches and processes, from a global perspective and their adaptations to the conservation of local wooden heritage. This document is the publication, result of the papers presented at the 22nd IIWC International Symposium, held in Bilbao between September 29 and 2 October 2019, under the umbrella of the Summer Courses of the University of the Basque Country. This Symposium wouldn’t have been possible without the support, help and involvement of many people and organizations. -

Semi-Domestic Shrines in Rural Sweden, C
religions Article The Saint in the Woods: Semi-Domestic Shrines in Rural Sweden, c. 1500–1800 Terese Zachrisson Department of Historical Studies, University of Gothenburg, 405 30 Gothenburg, Sweden; [email protected] Received: 9 May 2019; Accepted: 8 June 2019; Published: 17 June 2019 Abstract: In the seventeenth century, a common saying in parts of rural Sweden when discussing someone lacking in piety was that they went to neither church nor cross. This reflects the practice of placing shrines in the fields, along the roads and in the woods as a communal semi-domestic complement to official church space. In the remote woodland areas of Sweden, the distance between parish churches could be considerable, and many parishioners were not able to attend church on a regular, weekly basis. At these sites, parishioners could kneel and make their prayers as a complement to church service. However, they could also be used as points of contact in communicating domestic issues with the divine, with votives being left at the shrines by those hoping for deliverance from disease and difficult childbirths. In the post-reformation period, such sites were regarded with suspicion by the higher ranks of the clergy, and were often considered “idolatrous” and “superstitious”. Yet, they seem to have filled an important religious need among their laity that made it possible to interact with the divine on sites bordering the domestic and the public space of the church. Keywords: sacred space; materiality; popular piety; lived religion; Lutheranism 1. Introduction [ ::: ] In Pelarne parish, fourteen or fifteen years ago, there was a large wooden cross on the lands of Hult, along the road to Fastnefall, now downfallen; and it is said that formerly, the old and the sick have gone there, fallen to their knees and held their worship. -

Coming down on each side of the shoulder in front of the breast is a collar of SS, clearly indicating that the person represented was a man of distinction. In front of the left shoulder may be seen his string of beads crossing the breast to the elbow on the right side. Suspended from a narrow belt crossing diagonally from the right shoulder is the Scrip, with escallop shells upon it: whilst under his left wrist passed the Bourdon, or Pilgrim's Staff, with a square knob or pomel at the head. The hands of the figure, which were raised in the attitude of prayer, are lost. " Give me my Scallop thett of quiet My Staff of faith to rest upon; My Scrip of joy, immortal diet, My bottle of salvation; My Gown of glory, (hope's true gage,) And thus I'll make my Pilgrimage." Sot WAITEE RALEIGH. No inscription is on or near this rare and remarkable monu ment ; so that the enquirer is left to conjecture solely, to determine who is here commemorated, and when he was buried, but the style of the effigy and of the carving, with the collar round the neck, will help us to arrive at a conclusion. The low bend of the arch shows that the work is not of an earlier date than the middle of the fifteenth century, and the collar was worn as late as that period. The personage represented was in all probability a con temporary with William, Lord Hastings. -
Old Churches – New Values? Evaluation and Development of Statements of Significance
The 4th Annual Ename International Colloquium 2008, paper by Henrik Lindblad, Church of Sweden, E-mail: [email protected] Old Churches – New Values? Evaluation and Development of Statements of Significance 1. Introduction In 2007, the Church of Sweden initiated a project aiming to evaluate and develop the statements of significance regarding churches. This article gives information on the background of the project, summarizes other relevant studies pertaining to the values of churches and finally presents some preliminary conclusions, exemplified by a few studied statements. 2. Changing Society – Changing Church After the reformation in the 16 th century, the Church of Sweden gradually became a national church and an official part of the Swedish state. Membership of the church was required by law until 1860. Though the final religious freedom act was established in 1951, the church remained a state church until 2000. In the 20 th century Sweden could be described as a “one-culture-one-religion-one-nation-state”. It was a recently predominantly rural country with an economy based on natural resources as iron and timber. During the last decades Sweden has transformed rapidly. Now, in the third millennium, the country is heading towards a multi-cultural globalized and urbanized country, with an economy based on high tech industry and services. The experience economy, such as tourism and entertainment, is becoming more and more important. Due to increasing migration, and a greater diversity in incomes, educations and religions, the population is getting more heterogeneous (Swedish National Heritage Board (NHB) 2006). And the Swedish mentality is transforming as well, with changing values, involvements and priorities. -
