On 1 April 1537 Archbishop Olav Engelbrektsson fled out the Trondheimsfjord. Years of political strife within the Danish-Norwegian kingdom combined with the religious turmoil of 16th century Europe, had pulled the Metropolitan into a political struggle he ended up losing. However, he had one trick card up his sleeve. As his last known deed on Norwegian soil, Olav Engelbrektsson and his men went ashore at Austrått, Ørland where they plundered the manor of Ingerd Ottesdatter, a woman that had proved her- self to be one of the Archbishop’s strongest opponents. This powerful woman and her role in the political play in the years leading up to the Reformation, forms the founda- tion for The Reformation Project Austrått 1537.

  • Steinvikholm - Utholdenhet, Men Tuberkulosen Herjet I Ham
    Men Finn-Morten, eller Morten Jonasen som hans riktige navn var, husker nok de fleste her i dalen. Som ungdom var han en ualminnelig flink arbeidskar. Lars Gangås fortake meg at han engang skulle ha en slåttekar til ljåslåtten kite på Songmoen. Så fikk han tak i Finn-Morten. Han var liten av vekst og veik å se til, så Gangås tenkte han var uheldig som fikk noe så elendig i arbeide. Men der tok han skammelig feil, for mere drivendes og gjessvint kar enn Finn-Morten var, så han hverken før eller sia. IltWILHELM SWENSEN Han hadde nok arvet det som særpreget faren mest, seighet og Steinvikholm - utholdenhet, men tuberkulosen herjet i ham. De siste åra han levde 4 Tegninger: slottet ved fjorden • FORFATTEREN var han hjelpeskar og altmuligmann på Sykehjemmet som Orkdal Sjukehus dengang het, og der døde han også. Det gamle slottet ute på holmen i Åsenfjorden har ikke så meget å fortelle i dag. Det blir bare en vemodig visestubb om motgang og ydmykende fornedrelse som vinden hvisker over de lave murrestene og i det tørre sivet, kanskje med en dyp undertone frå de halvt glemte, hvelvete kjellerne — et sukk frå fangerommet hvor ennå ingen lysstråle kan trenge ned. Hva er det for en vise som de gamle grå og lave murene synger? Hva er det som ennå minnes etter fire hundre års taushet? Det runde tårnet «Bonden» med sine veldige murer ser med urokkelig tross inn i fremtiden, «ser med usovendes øye» som Petter Dass sier om Torghatten. Kan vår tid forstå den visen som hviskes over de brudte slotts- murene, kan vi løse gåtene som gjemmes her? Norsk middelalder har sitt utspring på Stiklestad.

  • Torstein Jargensen
    AT THE EDGEOF THEWORLD : THE SUPPLICATIONS FROM THEN ORWEGIANPROVINCE OF NIDAROS Torstein Ja rgensen At the time when the office ofthe papal Penitentiary was at its peak in the fifteenth and the fust half of the sixteenth century, the archdiocese of Nidaros was still the northernmost of all church provinces in Western Christendom. To be sure, the discoveries of new Iands in the Americas in the years before and after the turn of the century were just in the process of opening up a whole new world. On the one band, the new discoveries paved the way for political and economic conquest, on the other they added new and virginal ground for the Catholic Church to extend its faith, practices and institutional order. The old world scope as seen from the papacy, and in which Norway held a position as the last country of the world at the very border of the enormous abyss sur­ rounding the Iands of the earth, was about to lose its relevance. Ancl, for sea­ fa ring nations like Spain, Portugal, and Norway, the ocean represented an easier and speedier way oftravel and communication than land. By means ofthe winds ofthe seas and efficient ships the miles ofthe seas were shorter in terms oftrav­ elling hours than miles on land, especially if one belonged to the strata of the population that bad to travel on fo ot. Despite these facts the distance from Rome to the metropolitan See ofNi­ daros in Norway was still a long journey. However, it is important to note that long distance in terms of kilometres was by no means equivalent to long dis­ tance in mentality, fa ith, and conduct.

  • Den Historiske Bautaen Over Geble
    Den historiske www.helgeland-historielag.no Årgang 36 - Nr.3 - 2017 Bautaen over Geble Geble Pederssøn var Norges første protes- tantiske biskop. Han var født på Teigstad på Dønna ca 1490. På 1990-tallet tok filo- sofen Arild Haaland opp ideen om en bauta over Geble på Teigstad. Haaland var opptatt av forbindel- sen mellom Bergen og Helgeland og han fant der Geble Pederssøn som ett av de mange sterke bindeledd. Bautaen ble avduket i 1999. Haaland var også som kjent initiativtaker og fadder til Petter Dass-kapellet i Træna. Både Geble og Pet- ter var på så mange måter tett knyttet til Bergen.

    J ÖNKÖPING I NTERNATIONAL B USINESS S CHOOL JÖNKÖPING UNIVERSITY The effects of a separation between a state church and a state Participation and religious activity in the Evangelical-Lutheran Churches in Sweden and Norway Bachelor Thesis in Political Science Author: Helena Bergström, 840720 Tutor: Associate Professor Mikael Sandberg Jönköping January 2009 Bachelor Thesis in Political Science Title: The effects of a separation between a state church and a state – Participation and religious activity in the Evangelical-Lutheran Churches in Sweden and Norway Author: Helena Bergström Tutor: Associate Professor Mikael Sandberg Date: January 2009 Key words: state church, religious activity, religious participation, separation Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to examine the effects on religious participation and activity in a country that a separation between a state and a state church has. To do this I have compared Sweden and Norway. Norway still has a state church whereas Sweden does not as of January 1 2000. I decided to examine these two countries due to their similar backgrounds, geographical location and political systems. What I found when examining Sweden was that the separation did effect the religious participation compared to Norway. But Sweden has seen a decrease in church activities for a long time; the decrease would have taken place even without the separation, since Norway also had experiences this decrease over time. So my conclusion is, if Sweden had continued to have a state church, there would have been a similar decrease. However, it would probably have been smaller, then what have taken place after the separation. The different religious activities I have looked at, baptism, confirmation and marriage, have had different development over the years and have been affected differently by the separation.

  • Wittenberg Influences on the Reformation in Scandinavia by Simo Heininen, Otfried Czaika
    Wittenberg Influences on the Reformation in Scandinavia by Simo Heininen, Otfried Czaika Wittenberg was the most important source of inspiration for the Reformation in both of the Scandinavian kingdoms, the Danish kingdom and the Swedish kingdom. In both kingdoms, the authorities played a defining role in the Reformation, though it proceeded very differently in these two Early Modern states. The Reformation became securely established most quickly – both politically and in terms of church law – in the Danish core territory. Sweden, on the other hand, was de facto already a Lutheran country before 1550, though it did not become Lutheran de jure also until the last decade of the 16th century. Particularly in the peripheral parts of Scandinavia (especially Norway and Iceland), the Reformation went hand in hand with closer political integration in Scandinavia and it was therefore adopted rather reluctantly by the population. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Political Background 2. Denmark 3. Norway and Iceland 4. Sweden 5. Finland 6. Conclusion 7. Appendix 1. Sources 2. Bibliography 3. Notes Indices Citation Political Background From 1397, the kingdoms of Denmark, Norway and Sweden were united in a personal union (the so-called Kalmar Union) under Danish control (ᇄ Media Link #ab). In the early-16th century, the union was approaching its end. There were increasing tensions between Denmark and Sweden, the latter being governed by regents from the House of Sture. In November 1520, Christian II of Denmark (1481–1559) (ᇄ Media Link #ac), the last union king, was crowned for a second time in Stockholm. After the coronation festivities had been concluded, a heresy trial was staged with the help of the Archbishop of Uppsala and the accused were the supporters of the Sture party.

  • The Reformation and the Linguistic Situation in Norway
    THE REFORMATION AND THE LINGUISTIC SITUATION IN NORWAY Endre Mørck (UiT - The Arctic University of Norway) Abstract The article gives a short account of the development of the spoken language from Old Norwegian to Modern Norwegian, the transition from Norwegian to Danish as the written language in Norway and the language of the church around the Reformation. It is argued that the changes in the spoken language were a long-term development completed, on the whole, at the time of the Reformation, that the transition from Norwegian to Danish as the written language was also well on the way before the Reformation, and that the vernacular was not abruptly introduced in the Lutheran service. So, the linguistic situation in the centuries following the Reformation is only to a lesser degree a result of the Reformation itself. The Reformation should first and foremost be credited with the translation of the Bible into Danish and with it the consolidation of a modern form of Danish which was spread through the extensive religious literature of the time. Later this consolidated written language formed the basis for the development of a higher variety of spoken Norwegian. Keywords Reformation, History of Norwegian, Danish in Norway, Bible Translation, Language of the Church Introduction The Reformation is often used as a demarcation point in the history of the Norwegian language. However, most aspects of the linguistic situation in Norway after the Reformation are not at all or only to a lesser degree connected to the Reformation itself. The linguistic situation in the centuries following the Reformation is either a result of a long-term development or a consequence of the political events at the time of the Reformation.

Nr. 11 - 2000 Steinvikholm slott - forlatt etter 50 år teinvikholm slott er bygd i tiden ca. 1525-1530, og var forlatt allerede i S1575. Byggherren var erkebiskop Olav Engelbrektsson som også var lens- herre og leder for riksrådet. Slottet er byg- get som et firefløyet anlegg, for et forsvar basert på kruttvåpen med to flankerende forsvarstårn. Det er av sin samtid betegnet som «slott» og «befestet», og kan også be- tegnes som «borg». Arkeologiske utgrav- ninger i slottet for ca. 100 år siden tømte i hovedsak slottet for nedraste grusmasser. Gjenstander ble samlet og lokalisert til rom. Slottets lokalisering til en holme gav klare fortrinn i forhold til den våpentekno- logien som rådde.

However, with regard to established for him in -./-. (Photo: John the political, cultural and social realities of Norway’s long relationship with Nilsen) Denmark prior to independence in E EF, it is clear that there is no such separate history – the countries’ histories are deeply intertwined. Norway was colonized by a Danish elite that used the Lutheran Refor- mation in the sixteenth century to take over the positions and the prop- erties of the old Roman Catholic Church and the weakened Norwegian aristocracy. The parts of Norway that were most influenced by this devel- opment were the eastern and western sides of the OsloNord, and parts of Trøndelag and western Norway. In these regions, manors and the nobil- ity were major forces in creating new social, economic, cultural and sym- bolic systems for ruling, for the exercise of power, and for religious and legal control, systems which have many similarities to those of many other European countries. Manors and manor houses constituted important encounters between local and continental cultures, important links be- tween Norway and the political centre in Copenhagen, the capital of Den- mark-Norway, and – not least – provided career opportunities to young and aspiring members of the country’s ruling elite.
