Vilhelm af Æbelholt – stridbar helgen med et stort netværk og en central rolle i højmiddelalderens mest celebre ægteskabsskandale 4 SIDEN SAXO NR. 1, 2013 Abbed Vilhelm af Æbelholt var en af middelalderens højtuddannede gejstlige, der ikke så noget modsætningsforhold mellem det åndelige og det at være involveret i politik på højt plan. Som menneske var han ret kompleks, og hans eftermæle defineres i høj grad af den største enkeltstående begivenhed i hans liv, nemlig prinsesse Ingeborg af Dan- marks ulyksalige ægteskab med kong Filip August af Frankrig i 1193 – i historiografien kendt som ’Ingeborg-sagen’. Vilhelm spillede nemlig en vigtig rolle i omstændighederne omkring dette ægteskab. T HOMAS K . H EEBØLL - H OLM Laps og stodder Lad os starte med en historiografisk karakteristik af Vilhelm. I Niels Skyum-Nielsens Kvinde og slave fra 1971 portrætteres han som følger: ”Når Vilhelm trådte frem som en stodder og las, var det lettere at tigge på klostrets vegne. Blandt de 120 numre i hans brevbog er der mange betlerbreve. Andre igen er skrevet så slesk og krybende til samfundets højeste, at man derved delvis kan måle den utrolige afstand mellem mennesker.” Videre beretter Skyum-Nielsen, hvorledes Vilhelm tugtede sig selv med Sankt Vilhelm af Æbelholt (ca. et asketisk levned, selvom han synes at finde, at Vilhelm snarere var en skinhellig 1125/30-1203) blev helgenkåret i farisæer end en oprigtigt selvopofrende kristen. Ikke desto mindre roser Skyum- 1224 – årsagerne hertil var mulig- Nielsen ham også for hans internationale forbindelser, hans veltalenhed, livserfaring vis ikke udelukkende hans strenge og udholdenhed. Han beskriver endvidere Vilhelm som ekstremt temperamentsfuld kirketugt og klostervirke. Her ses Æbelholt klosters segl i tre forskelli- og stridbar. Han skriver: ”Vilhelm ’brændte’ for at revse og redde andre. Som selv- ge versioner. Det største er genbrug bestaltet verdensforbedrer fabrikerede han tordenskrivelser til forskellige abbeder, af Vilhelms eget segl. Man kan se det bisper og paver, nogle så fornærmelige, at de aldrig kan have afgået.” Som en sarkastisk både på den samtidige kunstneriske slutbemærkning skriver Skyum-Nielsen: ”Omstridt og beundret døde han efter et stil, samt at Vilhelm i omskriften ikke eksemplarisk liv år 1203. Han kanoniseredes 1224 og blev den tredje internationalt omtales som ”Sankt” (intet ”S.”). anerkendte helgen i dansk historie.” Seglet (gen)brugtes dog både i 1418, 1490, 1532 og 1551, hvilket kan un- Dette noget kradse billede af Vilhelm kan næppe tages helt for pålydende, ikke dre, da man sideløbende har haft mindst pga.

  • The Nordic Cross Flag: Crusade and Conquest April 22, 2020 Show Transcript
    Season 1, Episode 5: The Nordic Cross Flag: Crusade and Conquest April 22, 2020 Show Transcript Welcome back to another episode of Why the Flag?, the show that explores the stories behind the flags, and how these symbols impact our world, our histories, and ourselves. I’m Simon Mullin. On the last episode, we discussed the Y Ddraig Goch – the red dragon flag of Wales – and the deep historical and mythological origins of the red dragon on a green and white ground. We traveled back nearly 2,000 years to the Roman conquest of Britannia and the introduction of the dragon standard to the British Isles by the Iranian-Eastern European Sarmatian cavalry stationed at Hadrian’s Wall. We explored how the dragon was adopted by the Roman army as a standard, and after their withdrawal from Britannia, its mythological rise as the symbol of Uther Pendragon and King Arthur, and then its resurrection by Henry VII – whose 15th Century battle standard closely resembles the flag of Wales we see today. National mythology plays a significant role in shaping our identities and how we see ourselves as a community and as a people. And, as we found in episode 4, these mythologies are instrumental in shaping how we design and emotionally connect to our national flags. We’re going to continue this theme about the cross-section of history, mythology, and national identity on the episode today as we discuss the rise of the Nordic Cross, a symbol that shapes the flags of all eight Nordic and Scandinavian countries today, and rules over nearly 28 million citizens speaking 15 distinct languages.

Many of them were sent back home to help founding convents of friars Preachers in what was to become the order’s province of Dacia. This early phase of Dominican history in Scandinavia is relatively well described from a Dominican chronicle, from a number of annals and a handful of extant letters. All this notwithstanding, the exact years in the chronology of events have been a matter of some scholarly discussion. In this article, the author aims to offer an overview of facts, problems and theses, providing new evidence to settle some of the old questions – as well as questioning some of the settled beliefs. At the fourth Lateran Council in 1215 it was decided that the world now had all the religious orders it needed. The very year after, Pope honorius III gave his approval for the foundation of yet another order, although officially at first only as a congregation within the Augustinian order of canons regular: Ordo Predicatorum, the Order of Preachers. The reason for this papal change of mind was a hard felt need for a new institution within the Western Church, a corps of teachers and preachers, partly to take up the theological fight against heretic movements, but even more importantly also to comply with Canons 10 and 11 of the council in 1215 regarding an urgent need to improve theological training of secular priests at the cathedral schools and to endorse much more preaching of the Gospels to people in the dioceses.

  • Forms of Social Capital in the European Middle Ages Angels, Papal Legates, and the Scandinavian Aristocratic Elites, 12Th-13Th Centuries
    CERGU’S WORKING PAPER SERIES 2017:1 Forms of Social Capital in the European Middle Ages Angels, Papal Legates, and the Scandinavian Aristocratic Elites, 12th-13th Centuries Wojtek Jezierski ___________________________________ Centre for European Research (CERGU) University of Gothenburg Box 711, SE 405 30 GÖTEBORG January 2017 © 2017 by Wojtek Jezierski. All rights reserved. ABSTRACT This paper studies the forms of aristocratic social capital and modes of its conversion into dynastic, educational, economic, and symbolic forms in Scandinavia during the High Middle Ages. By closely scrutinizing the activities of several papal legates sent by Roman Curia to the North as well as the policies of locally appointed papal legates – particularly Absalon of Lund and Anders Sunesen – , the article shows how the Scandinavian aristocratic elites interacted with wider European networks of power in the course of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The documents associated with the activities of papal legates studied here (papal bulls, diplomas, synodal decrees, and contemporary chronicles) are treated as nodes tying together local Scandinavian powerful families, their local monastic foundations, and political ambitions both home and abroad with wider European networks of papal authority and protection, recognition in international educational circles, and dynastic alliances. By pursuing the high medieval ‘angelological’ model of government applied to papal legates, this paper shows what the political technology of delegation of power looked like in pre-modern Europe. Keywords: papal legates, Roman Curia, social capital, conversion of capital, Absalon of Lund, Anders Sunesen, William of Modena, Skänninge synod, delegation of power, angels, mystery of ministry Forms of Social Capital in the European Middle Ages Angels, Papal Legates, and the Scandinavian Aristocratic Elites, 12th-13th Centuries Wojtek Jezierski To Lars Hermanson on his 50th birthday On December 31st, 1224, Pope Honorius III (r.

Corsi Urbanization in Viking Age and Medieval Denmark From Landing Place to Town Urbanization in Viking Age and Medieval Denmark The Early Medieval North Atlantic This series provides a publishing platform for research on the history, cultures, and societies that laced the North Sea from the Migration Period at the twilight of the Roman Empire to the eleventh century. The point of departure for this series is the commitment to regarding the North Atlantic as a centre, rather than a periphery, thus connecting the histories of peoples and communities traditionally treated in isolation: Anglo-Saxons, Scandinavians / Vikings, Celtic communities, Baltic communities, the Franks, etc. From this perspective new insights can be made into processes of transformation, economic and cultural exchange, the formation of identities, etc. It also allows for the inclusion of more distant cultures – such as Greenland, North America, and Russia – which are of increasing interest to scholars in this research context.

Corsi May, 2014 ABSTRACT This dissertation advances the study of the cultural integration of Denmark with continental Europe in the Middle Ages. By approaching the question with a view to the longue durée, it argues that Danish aristocratic culture had been heavily influenced by trends on the Continent since at least the Roman Iron Age, so that when Denmark adopted European courtly culture, it did so simultaneously to its development in the rest of Europe. Because elite culture as it manifested itself in the Middle Ages was an amalgamation of that of Ancient Rome and the Germanic tribes, its origins in Denmark is sought in the interactions between the Danish territory and the Roman Empire.

Towards the end of the 12th century, the heathen parts of Europe were confined exclusively to the lands situated on the east coast of the Bal- tic Sea, inhabited by the Baltic and Finnish peoples – from the Vistula es- tuary to Finland. At the beginning of the fourteenth century, only the Lith- uanian tribes remained outside the western Christian world, since the 13th century ended the process of conquest and Christianization both among the Prussian tribes and the inhabitants of Livonia, living north of them. I will be using the term Livonia to collectively describe the area of modern Latvia and Estonia. In German historiography there is an analo- gous term ‘Alt-Livland’1 to describe a loose federation of areas under the 1. Compare such titles as: R. Guleke, Alt Livland.
