Viewed from the perspective of several hundred years of history, the Arctic character and Northernness have never been recorded in the development plans or government programmes for the area that later became known as Finland in as much detail as they were in Finland’s Arctic Strategy published in 2010.

  • Med Livets Rett
    MED LIVETS RETT BERNH. EIDE MED LIVETS RETT Bergens Indremisjon gjennom 100 år Utgitt av BERGENS INDREMISJON 1963 Sats og trykk Sambåndets Trykkeri Bergen 1963 Innbinding Haakon Monsens Bokbinderi Klisjeer A.S Klisjekunst FORORD I styremøte 12/6 1959 ble det vedtatt å utgi en jubileumsbok i anledning av at det i 1963 er 100 år siden Bergens Indremisjon ble stiftet. Styret henvendte seg så til res. kap. Bernhard Eide, med spørs­ mål om han kunne påta seg å skrive boken, og det sa han seg villig til. Styret takker Bernh. Eide for det utmerkede arbeide han har utført. Han har gitt et omfattende, og grundig gjennomarbeidet, historisk tilbakeblikk fra den ringe begynnelse i 1863 og fram til i dag. Og ikke minst takker vi ham for at han har maktet å gjøre historie-boken til interessant lesestoff. Bergens Indremisjons historie gjennom 100 år er et tilbake­ blikk. Her møter vi menn og kvinner som fikk kall fra Gud til misjon blant vårt eget folk. De var tro mot kallet, og gikk fri­ modig til arbeids. Ble de til skamme? Nei. Gud lot arbeidet lykkes. Bergens Indremisjon har gjennom disse 100 år påtatt seg - og løst - mange og store oppgaver, og nye tiltak, til fremme av Guds rike. Således er det flere store ytre-misjonsorganisasjo­ ner som har sine røtter i Bergens Indremisjon. Utallige kvinner og menn er gjennom denne virksomhet blitt vunnet for Guds rike. Mange store og gjennomgripende vekkelser har man fått opp­ leve. Men også mere i det stille har man fått oppleve frukter av arbeidet. Bergens Indremisjon har også drevet et stort kristelig-sosialt arbeide gjennom de 100 år, med timelig og åndelig hjelp til de mange ulykkelige, og til nytte for samfunnet.

  • The Colonial Clergy of the Middle Colonies New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania 1628-1776
    The Colonial Clergy of the Middle Colonies New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania 1628-1776 BY FREDERICK LEWIS WEIS EDITOR'S NOTE NE of the most useful tools in the chest of the bibliog- O rapher, historian, and librarian is the series of little volumes by Dr. Weis on the colonial clergy. The gap in this series, the volume on the clergy of the Middle Colonies, was proving such a great hindrance to our revision of Evans' American Bibliography, that we have decided to print this volume for our own use, and to publish it in order to share it with others. The first volume of this series. The Colonial Clergy and the Colonial Churches of New England (Lancaster, 1936), is out of print. The Colonial Clergy of Maryland, Delaware, and Georgia (Lancaster, 1950), and The Colonial Clergy of Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina (Boston, 1955) may be obtained of the author (at Dublin, New Hampshire) for $3 a volume. The institutional data which is provided at the end of the New England volume is for the other colonies issued in a separate volume. The Colonial Churches and the Colonial Clergy in the Middle and Southern Colonies (Lancaster, 1938), which is still available from the author. The biographical data on the clergy of the Middle Colonies here printed is also available in monograph form from the American Antiquarian Society. C. K.

  • Introduction to Jacob Boehme
    This companion will prove an invaluable resource for all those engaged in research or teaching on Jacob Boehme and his readers, as historians, philos- ophers, literary scholars or theologians. Boehme is “on the radar” of many researchers, but often avoided as there are relatively few aids to understand- ing his thought, its context and subsequent appeal. This book includes a fi ne spread of topics and specialists. Cyril O’Regan, University of Notre Dame, USA 66244-139-0FM-2pass-r02.indd244-139-0FM-2pass-r02.indd i 55/31/2013/31/2013 88:46:56:46:56 AAMM 66244-139-0FM-2pass-r02.indd244-139-0FM-2pass-r02.indd iiii 55/31/2013/31/2013 88:48:14:48:14 AAMM An Introduction to Jacob Boehme This volume brings together for the fi rst time some of the world’s leading authorities on the German mystic Jacob Boehme to illuminate his thought and its reception over four centuries for the benefi t of students and advanced scholars alike. Boehme’s theosophical works have infl uenced Western culture in profound ways since their dissemination in the early seventeenth century, and these interdisciplinary essays trace the social and cultural networks as well as the intellectual pathways involved in Boehme’s enduring impact. The chapters range from situating Boehme in the sixteenth-century Radical Reformation to discussions of his signifi cance in modern theology. They explore the major contexts for Boehme’s reception, including the Pietist movement, Russian religious thought, and Western esotericism. In addition, they focus more closely on important readers, including the religious rad- icals of the English Civil Wars and the later English Behmenists, literary fi gures such as Goethe and Blake, and great philosophers of the modern age such as Schelling and Hegel.

  • Trinity Lutheran Church, 100Th Anniversary Program
    Cover art by David Hahn The Centennial Anniversary Celebration Of Trinity Lutheran Church Hovland, Minnesota September 12, 1909 -August 29th, 2009 Trinity Lutheran Church, Trinity Lutheran Church Services commenced October 12, 1913 Dedicated July 16, 1950 Dedicated, Summer 1914 Commentary on the Centennial Hymn Text When entering the beautiful sanctuary of Trinity Lutheran Church in Hovland one's eyes are naturally drawn to two images. The first are the words from Psalm 51 :17 engraved into the altar: "The sacrifices of God are a broken and contrite heart." This text is in the last line of the fourth stanza of the hymn. The second is the marvelous stained-glass window above the altar. Arnold Flaten, professor of art at St. Olaf College, was the principal designer of the new church building in the late 1940s; spent three summers in Hovland along with students helping with construction; and conceived the artistic design of the window, fabricated by his students in Northfield in 1951. It is fitting then that composer Bill Beckstrand named the hymn tune FLATEN. All artistic creation is a work of imagination, and to my knowledge it is not known what Professor Flaten fully had in mind in the design. Experiencing and interpreting an artist's work is equally an imaginative act. What have worshippers at Trinity seen in the window for almost sixty years? I have contemplated the window now for half that time and have incorporated several Biblical texts and images that appear in my mind's eye as I gaze from bottom to top, which point to the larger story of salvation history.
