In this illustrated essay, we can see how beliefs about Yggdrasil and Ragnarok are incorporated and transformed in the design and ornamentation of the unusual stave churches of Norway.

  • Hungarian Archaeology E-Journal • 2021 Spring
    HUNGARIAN ARCHAEOLOGY E-JOURNAL • 2021 SPRING www.hungarianarchaeology.hu MEDIEVAL NORWEGIAN WOODEN (STAVE) CHURCHES: BUILT HERITAGE AND PLACES OF MEMORY Kata Szilágyi1 – anette Sand-eriKSen2 Hungarian Archaeology Vol. 10 (2021), Issue 1, pp. 30–40. https://doi.org/10.36338/ha.2021.1.5 This paper focuses on the Norwegian medieval religious buildings called stave churches. The word stave (meaning ‘post, pole’ in Norwegian) derives from the buildings’ post and lintel construction, giving the churches their characteristic style. The structures display a highly developed tradition of wooden Christian buildings, which during the Middle Ages (1050–1500) where the most common in Norway, their number can be estimated at around a thousand. There were probably at least as widespread in other areas (e.g. on the territory of present-day Germany and Russia), but they did not remain in such a large number from the early period. However, the number have declined dramatically, and today only 28 are preserved. The article aims to expand the knowledge of the unique and irreplaceable wooden architecture of the stave churches. Although we consider the wooden churches to be one of the characteristics of Scandinavia tra- ditionally, they mix and carry the influences of other cultures and countries. The heritage and memorial role of wooden churches, as well as the motif of the combination of different architectural and religious elements, represent an interesting comparison to similar phenomena in the Carpathian Basin. Transylvania and especially the Maramureş region are also famous for their wooden churches and the rich carved and painted iconostasis. Keywords: North-Europe, Norway, Middle Age, Stave church, wooden architecture, Nordic style, cultural memory, cultural heritage WHAT ARE STAVE CHURCHES AND WHY ARE THEY SO SPECIAL?

    From https://www.norwegianamerican.com/heritage/mystery-stave-churches/ The Mystery of Stave Churches BY ADMIN · PUBLISHED OCTOBER 29, 2019 · UPDATED OCTOBER 29, 2019 Seeing inside makes all the difference Photo: Eric Stavney As Eric Stavney and his daughter assembled a cardboard model stave church, they realized that what’s most interesting is found inside. Eric Stavney Mukilteo, Wash. As my daughter and I put the spire on the top roof of our second cardboard stave church, a 1/87 scale model (for model train layouts) you can buy on eBay, we had the same let-down as when we finished the first one: all the cool stuff gets buried inside. The V-shaped trusses, the carved Saint Andrew’s crosses, the stave columns rising up from the flagstones to define the midtrom or nave—you get to see all that as you build it, only to cover it up in darkness by piling on a succession of roofs. We got so frustrated after one model, we even cut away one side so we could peek at the construction inside—like a doll’s house. Indeed, the real charm and mystery of a real stave church is the dark interior. At left: Photo: Eric Stavney Gol Stave Church seen from the outside as it appears today. I recently visited the Gol Stave Church in the Norsk Folkemuseum of Oslo. Gol Stave Church is a curiosity, because it was moved there from Hallingdal, and so lacks that sense of place where it was originally built. But I am thankful to King Oscar II for moving it to what became the Norsk Folkemuseum in Oslo, because now it is easily accessible to visitors like me.

  • Through the Portal: Viking Motifs Incorporated in the Pia Romanesque Style in Telemark, Norway
    Ødeby, K 2013 Through the Portal: Viking Motifs Incorporated in the pia Romanesque Style in Telemark, Norway. Papers from the Institute of Archaeology, 23(1): 15, pp. 1-19, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5334/ pia.433 RESEARCH PAPER Through the Portal: Viking Motifs Incorporated in the Romanesque Style in Telemark, Norway Kristine Ødeby* This paper presents the results of an analysis of motifs identified on six carved wooden Romanesque portal panels from the Norwegian county of Telemark. The findings suggest that animal motifs in the Late Viking style survived long into the Late Medieval period and were reused on these medieval portals. Stylistically, late expressions of Viking animal art do not differ a great deal from those of the subsequent Romanesque style. However, their symbolical differences are considered to be significant. The motifs themselves, and the issue of whether the Romanesque style adopted motifs from pre-Christian art, have attracted less attention. The motif portraying Sigurd slaying the dragon is considered in depth. It will be suggested that Sigurd, serving as a mediator between the old and the new beliefs when he appeared in late Viking contexts, was given a new role when portrayed in Christian art. Metaphor and liminality are a central part of this paper, and the theories of Alfred Gell and Margrete Andås suggest that the portal itself affects those who pass through it, and that the iconography is meaningful from a liminal perspective. Introduction dition outweighed renovation. Therefore it is The Romanesque style was carved on stave interesting to take a closer look at the use of church portals and other Christian art objects motifs in this new church style - the Roman- in Norway from the 12th century onwards.

  • The Expressive Capacity of the Timber Frame
    THE EXPRESSIVE CAPACITY OF THE TIMBER FRAME BRIT ANDRESEN School of Geography, Planning and Architecture Faculty of Engineering, Physical Sciences and Architecture University of Queensland QLD 4072, Australia [email protected] Abstract Assembling for the first time a braced, timber frame as a freestanding structure, where no piece could be taken away without collapsing it, was surely a ‘eureka’ moment in architecture. The expressive potential of the timber frame can be argued to have led both to its development as well as to its later transfer and transformation. It is the intention of this paper to present the braced frame of the medieval stave-church as the opportunity for expressing Christian ‘church-like’ qualities in pagan Norway – a part transformation in timber-rich Norway from the established practise of constructing stone churches in the south. Six centuries later ecclesiologists sought medieval examples for the construction of wooden churches in colonial diocese - such as those in Canada and New Zealand where timber was plentiful. Several mid-C19th publications, such as The Reverend William Scott’s paper “On Wooden Churches”, raised awareness among ecclesiologists of the potential of medieval Scandinavian examples to contribute to the transformation of the wooden church in the colonies by transferring ‘church-like’ qualities to the utilitarian ‘god box’. The C19th wooden churches by R.G. Suter in Queensland are innovative examples of an ecclesiastical architecture in timber that takes advantage of the expressive potential of exposing the frame and the use of ‘outside studding’. There are direct transfers of these earlier techniques and technologies through the use of ‘outside studding’ and the exposed timber frame in the work of Andresen O’Gorman Architects.

    Akvarellmaleren Hans Johan Frederik Berg (1813-1874) Fra Nesna til Nilen Hovedfagsavhandling i kunsthistorie Våren 2007 Ann Falahat Institutt for filosofi, idé- og kunsthistorie og klassiske språk Universitetet i Oslo Forord Emnet for denne hovedfagsavhandlingen ble klart for flere år siden mens jeg arbeidet ved Nasjonalgalleriet. Der oppdaget jeg Hans Johan Frederik Berg, en norsk kunstner som har etterlatt seg en rekke arbeider med motiver fra en reise til Egypt i 1849. Jeg hadde lenge interessert meg for orientalistisk kunst, og så for første gang en mulighet til å skrive om orientalisme i en norsk sammenheng. Imidlertid var det flere sider ved Bergs liv og kunst som fortjente en grundigere gjennomgang. Det har ført til en lang og lærerik reise i en egenartet kunstners fotspor. Det er mange som på ulike måter har bidratt til at avhandlingen nå endelig har kommet i havn. Jeg vil trekke frem min veileder Erik Mørstad og mine tidligere kollegaer Marit Ingeborg Lange, Knut Ljøgodt, Møyfrid Tveit og Bodil Sørensen. Takk også til Svein Carstens, Erik Henning Edvardsen, Katja Friedrich, Mai Britt Guleng, Lena Larsen, Svein Laumann og alle hos Kaare Berntsen. Takk til min mann Mohammad Ali Falahat for tålmodighet og orientalsk inspirasjon. En spesiell takk går til Nordnorsk Kunstmuseum ved direktør Anne Aaserud for tilliten som ble vist meg da jeg ble tildelt museets hovedfagsstipend i 2004.

  • The Remaining Stave Churches and Different Categories
    The remaining Stave Churches and different categories Simple Stave Churches: Eidsborg In Eidsborg the characteristic shingles are immediately apparent; the roof, the posts (staves) and pentice are completely clad with shingles. The church has a single, rectangular nave. Originally there was a narrower chancel which has been widened on two separate occasions. Garmo After a new parish church was built in Lom in 1879, Garmo Stave Church was pulled down and later re-constructed at Maihaugen Museum in Lillehammer. From the outside, Garmo Stave Church looks much like it did before it was demolished, but all the fittings and artwork come from other churches. Haltdalen Haltdalen Stave Church stands today at a museum in Trondheim. Parts of the church originate from Ålen Stave Church, while other parts are from Haltdalen. The shape of the building is similar to many Medieval stone churches. The interior is spartan with a simple altar and benches along the sides. It has stylistically been dated to around 1170. Hedalen Hedalen Stave Church probably dates to around 1165. The church was rebuilt in 1699 and became cruciform, the earlier chancel and apse were removed. The church has much of its Medieval decor preserved. The carved Madonna in the church is one of the finest and best- preserved saint figures in the country. Rollag Rollag Stave Church is mentioned in documents from 1425 but there has been a church on the same site long before this. The church got its current appearance in 1760. Rollag was originally a simple post Stave Church but has since been changed in many phases, both in length and height.
