  • Conceptions of Holiness in the Lutheran Countries, C. 1550-1700*
    Conceptions of Holiness in the Lutheran Countries, c. 1550-1700* by Jürgen Beyer When considering the impact of the Lutheran Reformation on the issue of ho- liness, most readers will view the influence of the Reformation as negative, resulting in the abolition of the cult of saints. The Reformers' emphasis on the Christian's personal need of grace and faith is generally thought to have made saints superfluous as mediators and as models of good works and holiness. However, as I shall attempt to show, holiness remained an important issue after the Reformation, though the meaning of the word was altered in some important respects. The English language has a large number of terms related to the concept of holi- ness: sacrality, sacredness, sainthood, saintliness, sanctimony, sanctitude and sancti- ty. Though these words suggest a variety of perspectives to be studied, they also overlap to a large degree. Therefore I shall in the following speak of holiness which seems to be the most general of these terms.1 Holiness is a central notion in the comparative study of religion. Some religions do not have a conception of God, but in all religions there is a distinction between holy and profane. If a religion recognizes a god or gods, then things holy are related to the godhead. Moral perfection, however, seems originally not to have been a necessary quality of the holy.2 So far, there seems to be agreement among students of religion, but this consensus ends quickly when the phenomenon holiness is to be interpreted. My aims, as an historian and a folklorist, are much more modest.

Printing and binding: CPI books GmbH, Leck www.degruyter.com Preface The current work was defended as a PhD thesis at the Faculty of Humanities of the University of Hamburg in 2019. The supervisors were Jürgen Sarnowsky (University of Hamburg) as primary and Carsten Jahnke (University of Copenhagen) as secondary. The work you are reading now is a slightly revised version of this thesis, with minor points added or corrected, and an updated bibliography. However, the publication of this book marks only the end of a process that was set in course long before I started to work on the subject. At an interdisciplin- ary conference about the medieval North Atlantic trade in Avaldsnes, Norway, in 2013, the idea came up that it would be good if someone would compile an exten- sive overview of the German trade with the North Atlantic, based on historical written sources.

The Volsungasaga is of course well known, but with this * exception the Stories of Icelanders,' and the 'Stories of the Kings of Norway' are probably the only sagas familiar to the majority of English readers. Of the four sagas contained in this volume only one the Thdttr of Sorli has appeared in English before, though the poetry which they contain has frequently been translated, from the time of Hickes's Thesaurus (1705). So far as I am' aware "no version of any of the Faroese ballads has appeared in English. Out of the great number which were collected during the i8th and rothS centuries L'-have chosen a few which deal with the same stories as the sagas translated here; and for purposes of comparison I have added a short extract from one of the Icelandic Rimur, as well as a Danish ballad and part of the Shetland Hildina. In accordance with general custom in works of this kind I have discarded the use of accents, un- familiar symbols, etc., except in a few Norse words which can hardly be anglicised.

(Translated by Mrs. A. S. Hatcher, U.S. Public Heal th Service. ) When a physician is called to work in a place where climatic and dietetic conditions are different from those to which he has been accustomed, his first problem is to study the hygienic potentialities which affect the state of health of the inhabitants. It is, in fact, these hygienic conditions which contribute to- wards the development and frequency of some diseases and the improbability and rarity of others, and which more or less modify the symptoms of every disease; and it is, indeed, on these con- ditions that the geography of disease, the special study of which subject will soon, perhaps, elevate it to the status of an independent science, is based. Since the outbreak of the measles provided the occasion for my journey to the Faroe Islands, it is natural that I directed my attention at once to the influence which the extremely peculiar hygienic conditions of the islands exerted upon this disease, and vice versa . But, since, during my sojourn of al- most five months on the Faroes I repeatedly traveled over the greater part of the islands, I was thus in a situation to make a great many observations in regard to the influence of the special hygienic conditions upon the state of health in general, as well as upon the frequency and development of the prevailing disease.

    From Centre to Periphery Main Lines of North Atlantic Cultural Development from Medieval to Modern Times Bjarne Stoklund Stoklund, Bjarne 1992: From Centre to Periphery. Main Lines of North Atlantic Cultural Development from Medieval to Modern Times. - Ethnologia Europaea 22: 51-65. Hitherto, most ethnological and anthropological research on society and culture in the North Atlantic islands has assumed, explicitly or implicitly, a very long, almost unbroken continuity ("the traditional community" or "the old peasant culture") which was superseded in the nineteenth century by a period of trans­ formation and modernization. This article argues that the history of the islands since their settlement in c. 700-900 has been marked by considerable changes in ecological and economic conditions, and that the small island communities cannot be studied as isolated entities, but should be analysed in terms of their shifting relationships with the rest of Europe. One main thesis is that their development can be described as a movement from an economically and culturally "central" position in the early middle ages through increasing marginalization to the "peripheral" status that was typical of these communities in the centuries of Absolutism. The article seeks to demonstrate that the changes in these centre­ periphery relations have been of great significance for the society and culture of the islands.

Acknowledgements I would like to start by thanking my supervisors, Dr Claudia Sternberg and Professor Catherine Karkow for their unflinching support throughout the years. You have allowed me to find my own path but have not hesitated to reel me in when venturing too far down the rabbit hole. I would not have made it to the end without the generous support of my family and friends in the Faroe Islands that, although they are far away, have been present every step of this long, hard (but rewarding) journey. I owe all my stubbornness, tenacity and love for books to my parents, Gunnleyg and Hans Jørgen. My thanks go out to the people that have helped me out with information gathering: The (patient) people at The Faroese National Library, Peter Andersen from the University of Strasbourg, Tina Jacobsen from The Faroese University, the people at University of Leeds libraries and people at the Faroese National Archives.
