The formation of the European nation states was deeply affected by
the Reformation processes during the 16th century. In order to
understand today's Europe, it is necessary to come to terms with
the historical processes that shaped these emerging nation states.
The book discusses such processes with particular attention to how
they affected the northernmost parts of Europe. The book consists
of three main parts: 1) Church and State, 2) Interaction and
Networks, 3) Ideas and Images. In the first part, the authors
examine various aspects of the relationship between the church and
the state, and how the Reformation processes contributed to reshape
this relationship. In the second part, the development of the
social and economic networks among the population of Northern
Fennoscandia is mapped, taking account of how such networks were
affected by different ethnic groups. The role of the church and the
mission in the state integration of the Northern borderless areas
is also examined, as well as the new Lutheran clergy and their
social and material conditions. In the third part, the visual and
material expressions of the Reformation period is analyzed, as well
as the encounter between the Catholic, the Lutheran and the Sami
religion.
