Willumsen, Liv HeleneSammendrag
In this chapter, I will analyse a historical source that has attracted considerable attention during the last two decades, namely the
court records of the trial of Anders Poulsen, 1692.1
The trial took
place in the town of Vadsø in Finnmark, which is the northernmost district of Northern Norway. The reasons for this attention
are multiple, and a few will be mentioned.
