Barnetro (Part I of II)
Translated variously as childhood "faith," "belief," "superstition," "innocence," "foolishness," "gullibility," and "naiveté," the Norwegian term <i>barnetro</i> is a difficult one to pin down. Used most commonly in reference to religion, it's easy to mistake the word as simply mapping on to conceptions of Christian faith and childlike trust in God. Despite this, as a brief look at the term's usage in song and poetry, it's evident that barnetro has broader applications.

The Sacred and the Secular: Confirmation in Norway
Confirmation in Norway has held a variety of meanings since the introduction of Christianity to the country by Olav Tryggvason. From a point of formalized entry into the spiritual world, it has diverged to take on multiple forms for the Norwegian populace. An initiation into the world of adulthood, a point of resistance against an oppressive religious order, and an area of status negotiation, ritual confirmation has broadened its borders and surpassed even, in true Weberian form, the constraints of organized religion to become a civic, rather than religious, activity.
