Medieval cathedrals and the
various practices connected to them form an important and complex
part of the European cultural heritage. The buildings themselves
and their reception into the modern arts ensure their presence
within today's cultural memories and sensibilities.
In the mid-twelfth century, a new
archbishop's seat was erected in the Norwegian city of Trondheim
(or Nidaros) at the far north of Europe. This interdisciplinary
volume, written by scholars of history, architecture, and liturgy,
explores the medieval cathedral of Trondheim as a local
construction in a European context. As a see of the Western Church,
it was set in an international Latinate culture. At the same time,
the construction of the building itself and the ritual practices in
and around it were influenced by local political, religious, and
cultural conditions.
The relationship between the
physical construction of a cathedral and its function in medieval
liturgical and other ritual practices is a topic of wide relevance
for architectural and liturgical scholarship. The so-called Ordo
Nidrosiensis, the thirteenth-century ordinal of the Province of
Nidaros, is an immense help in interpreting the architectural
construction and sacred space of Nidaros Cathedral and the
Ordo is dealt with in many of the articles. In accordance
with general medieval practice, the Nidaros ordinal may be
described as international in contents but edited with regard to
local considerations.
