acknowledgements 9 ortunately for us, the Finnish Cultural Foundation (Suomen FKulttuurirahasto) perceived the importance of the project, and with the Foundation’s grant, the participants of the project have been able to meet for seminars and go on research trips related to the project, mainly to Stockholm, but also Tartu and Cologne. This sponsorship has been invaluable for this research project. The Olin Foundation (Institutet för Rättshistorisk Forskning grundad av Gustav och Carin Olin) has also kindly sponsored our final seminar. We are very grateful that it has accepted this book in its Rättshistoriska studier series. The research project wishes to acknowledge the grant by Stiftelsen för Sigillhistorisk Forskning that made it possible to have the images of the seals of the Svea Court of Appeal drawn. We owe a special debt to Professors Lars Björne (turku), Mats Kumlien (uppsala) and Peter Oestmann (münster) who generously read and commented on an earlier version of the whole manuscript as well as to Nils Jörn (wismar) for his comments.
