This book presents a comprehensive history of law and religion in
the Nordic context. The entwinement of law and religion in
Scandinavia encompasses an unusual history, not widely known yet
important for its impact on contemporary political and
international relations in the region. The volume provides a
holistic picture from the first written legal sources of the
twelfth century to the law of the present secular welfare states.
It recounts this history through biographical case studies. Taking
the point of view of major influential figures in church, politics,
university, and law, it thus presents the principal actors who
served as catalysts in ecclesiastical and secular law through the
centuries. This refreshing approach to legal history contributes to
a new trend in historiography, particularly articulated by a
younger generation of experienced Nordic scholars whose work is
featured prominently in this volume. The collection will be a
valuable resource for academics and researchers working in the
areas of Legal History and Law and Religion.
