A saint for all nations: the cult of Saint Olaf outside Norway

Simon Coupland

4.9/5 (14002 ratings)

Description:Saint Olaf (995-1030) is not only the Saint to whom this cathedral is dedicated, but also the patron Saint of all Norway. What is more, as this short booklet will show, in times past he was also venerated throughout Scandinavia, as well as in the British Isles, on the European Continent, and even as far away as Novgorod and Bethlehem. He was indeed ‘a saint for all nations’.It is therefore particularly appropriate that this booklet should be written in English, so that the visitors from many nations who come to Trondheim knowing little or nothing about Olaf - and even less Norwegian - can read something about his fame and fortune in those bygone days.It was first given as a lecture at a conference bringing together the theologians and clergy from the Anglican and Lutheran churches at Stiklestad in July 1995, and repeated in the Chapter House of this cathedral on St. Olaf’s Day, 29th July, in the same year.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
