This means that readers/users must: attribute the essay, may not use the essay for commercial purposes, and may not alter, transform, or build upon the essay. Jo Nesbø’s The Snowman and the Myth of Týr: Addressing Contemporary Issues through Literary Tradition Loredana Teresi University of Palermo This essay explores the way in which the Scandi-noir author Jo Nesbø reimagines the Norse myth of the Germanic god Týr1 (and also some other cognate mythological incidents) in his popular novel The Snowman (2007). With a focus which is especially addressed to Norway and to a limited set of local, targeted readers, Nesbø adapts these medieval myths to create allusive incidents and puzzles, and he exploits the intellectual play of medievalism to produce a dense semantic meaning. The novel is thus able to explore and debate contemporary issues including the value of truth versus perspective (and context), the flawed dichotomy of victim and offender, and the tensions between individual and society. This analysis demonstrates not only the semantic density of Nesbø’s The Snowman, but also the relevance of the study of the cultural past for a proper understanding of modern society and of its literary production, a study favoring also a better grasp of its complex nature and issues. Nesbø does not use the myth wholesale, but rather deconstructs it to combine and adapt various fragments.

  • Jo Nesbo's HARRY HOLE
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Nottingham Trent Institutional Repository (IRep) Jo Nesbø’s Harry Hole Murray Pratt The vantage points of international allegory Whether measured by sales figures, reach, celebrity standing, cultural influence or departure-lounge sightings, it is beyond contestation that Jo Nesbø’s Harry Hole Thriller series (1997–2014) has joined detective fiction’s big league. And while both author and character are firmly rooted in Norwegian society and culture (the former played football for Molde FK and is a member of the band Di Derre; the latter is drawn back to Oslo and its underworlds despite his globe-trotting tendencies), their respective successes have been enjoyed on an international scale. Since the first English-language translation of a Hole Thriller was released (Marekors/The Devil’s Star in 2005 [2003]), the series has gone on to sell over 23 million copies worldwide. Surfing the wave of ‘Nordic Noir’, or ‘Scandicrime’ with a profile to rival Stieg Larsson’s Millennium series (2004–07) or television’s Forbrydelsen/The Killing (DR1, 2007–12) and Broen/Bron/The Bridge (SVT1/DR1, 2011–), Hole’s adventures are increasingly branded and marketed as emblematic of this now established genre— witness the sepia-tinted, Stieg Larsson-inspired city maps that lead readers into Oslo’s cityscape in Vintage’s 2013 release of Politi/Police, together with the back-page testimony from the Sunday Mirror’s Deirdre O’Brien: ‘Scandinavian crime thrillers don’t come much darker or more tense than the bestselling Harry Hole series’.

    On Violence No. 2 - Year 4 06/2014 - LC.4 Ivana Bančić, University of Juraj Dobrila, Croatia Rethinking the Notion of National Identity in the Novel The Redbreast by Jo Nesbo Abstract This paper sets out to examine the extent to which the novel The Redbreast by Jo Nesbo confirms the hypothesis that in the 21st century the crime novel has become a platform suitable for the examination of national identity and the nature of violence in given social surroundings. The paper introduces the hypothesis that there is an undercurrent of unease perceivable in contemporary Norwegian society. The existence of the supporters of the Nazi regime in the history of the nation which after World War II has constituted itself as a modern, tolerant and multicultural society, causes a crisis of identity and evokes a new take-off of right-wing politics. Therefore, the policy of resistance to Nazism and the celebration of tolerance and multiculturalism are on slippery ground. But Nesbo's re-examination of national identity is not conducted solely for the purpose of questioning the absoluteness of ethical positions of good and evil; Nesbo transposes the contemporary Norwegian crime novel from the domain of subjective violence into the realm of objective violence. The paper argues that Nesbo explores the categories of the immoral and the righteous within Norwegian society, pinpointing thereby the dangers of a policy which uses the fear of immigrants as a means of mobilising the nation. Keywords: crime fiction, national identity, multiculturalism, violence Crime and Fiction: a Broader Perspective It could be argued that at the beginning of the 21st century, thanks to a diverse typology of the genre, crime fiction has been triumphantly inaugurated as a top-ranking literary genre, and has consequently become part of the mainstream culture.
