Kirke og Kultur ( Norwegian: Church and Culture) is a Norwegian language monthly cultural and clerical magazine published in Oslo, Norway. It has been in circulation since 1894.
Kirke og Kultur was founded in 1894 [1] by Christopher Bruun and Thorvald Klaveness, originally named For Kirke og Kultur. [2] The magazine has its headquarters in Oslo [3] and is published on a monthly basis. [4]
Early contributors of Kirke og Kultur included Søren Kierkegaard. [5] Sverre Hov, a Norwegian poet, was a regular contributor to the magazine between 1937 and 1993. [1] From 1968 the magazine was edited by Inge Lønning, with Kjetil Hafstad as co-editor from 1994. [2]
In November 1940 Ronald Fangen became the first Norwegian writer to be arrested by the German occupants of Norway due to an essay published in the periodical Kirke og Kultur. [6]
Kirke og Kultur covers articles and commentaries on religion- and church-related topics as well as on literary work and social issues. [1]
