All our content, both new and old, has also been equipped with DOI numbers, making it easier to find online. With this issue and the special issue published in Fall 2019 we have reached the milestone of 50 original published articles. This issue of the journal contains four articles. The first one, by Leif Yttergren, is about the career and lifestyle of female physical education teachers during the twen- tieth century (1932–1973). The author shows how these women, unlike many wom- en of their time, chose to stay in their careers combining their profession with family life, even though it meant difficulty in bringing their “life puzzles” together. The second article, by Nikolas Glover, is about the foundation of the relation- ship between Swedish and Tanzanian adult educators. The article argues for the con- cept of “aidification” in an effort to explain how transnational educational policy was transformed following decolonisation and the ideal of creating an equal partnership. Finnish scholars Päivi Marjanen and Mika Metsärinne examine the major changes to Finnish school craft from the middle of the nineteenth century to present day. The analysis shows that the subject has changed substantially in order to stay relevant in different times, but at the same time, the aim has always been to develop useful skills for everyday life. The last article of this issue, by Andreas Hellerstedt, deals with the problem of innate natural talent versus acquired knowledge or virtue in dissertations on educa- tion from Uppsala University, Sweden, near the end of the seventeenth century. The analysis shows that the dissertations described education in Renaissance humanistic terms and that they displayed trust in the capabilities of education.

Kvinnliga gymnastikdirektörer, GCI och folkhemmet 1932–1952 Leif Yttergren Abstract • Housewife or Physical Education Teacher? Or Both? Female Physical Education Teachers and the Welfare State, 1932–1952 • The purpose of the article is to analyse the occupational careers and lifestyles of 32 female physical education teachers during the period 1932–1973. The results show that women could work both as physiotherapists and as physical education teachers. Many chose the former, which in Central Institute of Gymnastics’ (Gymnastiska centralinstitutet, GCI) own historical writing has been reduced in favor of the physical education teachers. The women came from the mid- dle or upper middle class of society. They were around 20 years old when they started the two-year education at GCI, which attracted students from all over the country. They could combine marriage and children with work, even though it meant duplication and difficulty in bringing together the so- called “life puzzle.” Unlike many other women at this time, the physical education teachers chose the occupational career instead of becoming full time housewives. Their attitude can be explained by the occupational and caring character of the profession, but also with the strong loyalty that existed in the group and the GCI-spirit. Keywords • female physical education teachers [kvinnliga gymnastikdirektörer], careers [karriärer], marriages [äktenskap], life stories [livshistorier] Inledning Försommaren 1932 utexaminerades 321 unga kvinnor från Gymnastiska central- institutet (GCI) i Stockholm. De hade genomgått en för tiden eftertraktad profes- sionsutbildning och erhöll efter examen titeln gymnastikdirektör. Utbildningen för kvinnor var tvåårig och hade en avgörande fördel i jämförelse med många andra professionsutbildningar. Efter examen kunde nämligen kvinnorna arbeta både som sjukgymnaster, privat och offentligt, och som idrottslärare inom skolväsendet. Des- sutom kunde de leda gymnastikföreningar på helger och kvällar för att utöka inkom- sten. Chansen att efter examen erhålla ett lönearbete föreföll således goda för de nyexaminerade gymnastikdirektörerna. Samtidigt lämnade kvinnorna GCI i en tur- bulent tid. 1930-talskrisen pågick med hög arbetslöshet

  • The Development of Printing in Present-Day Finland and Estonia in The
    T HE DEVELOPMENT OF PRINTING IN PRESENT - D A Y F INLAND AND E S T O N I A I N THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY By Tiiu Reimo This article aims at giving a comparative overview of the early stage of printing in the areas of present-day Finland and Estonia. The overview is based on the analysis of scholarly literature and on book data registered in retrospective bibliographies. In the development of printing in Finland and Estonia, many similar features are observable: the foundation of printing shops took place approximately at the same time, and printing shops were established by the same institutions, i.e. universities and gymnasia. The output of the printing houses cannot be fully reconstructed as much printed matter has perished. The analysis of the surviving print production shows likeness in typology of academic publications as well as of books in vernacular languages. Introduction For centuries, books have been the main medium in communicating knowledge and fostering intellectual development. Books from the past preserve cultural memory and are therefore also important for the future. The history of books and printing has been of interest to many scholars both in Finland and Estonia. The large amount of scholarly literature in this field reflects the importance assigned to the printed word in the development of national cultures. Thus, it is not a coincidence that the history of vernacular (Estonian- and Finnish-language) book culture should have been one of the preoccupations of scholars involved in the National Awakening movements on both sides of the Gulf of Finland in the nineteenth and early twentieth century.

In the Latin schools (trivial schools, cathedral schools, and gymnasiums) in eighteenth-century Sweden, rhetoric still had a prominent position. In examining school rhetoric under the Swedish School Act of 1724, the study takes on rhetoric education in the broad sense, asking questions about teaching design and content, and about which texts were read and written.

JO f.m . Abstract The years 1809- 10 brought peace and cha nges in the Swedish government, followed by a Iively pedagogical debn te, leading to the Commission of 1812, whose major task was to produce a new ordinance to replace the then-current School Ordinance. Reports from consistories. etc. and the results of questionnaires furnished imponant start ing points. Various factors influenced the Commission, which emphasised the development of the person and personality as a whole, respect for others, and pat­ riotism. The economic aspects were considered. Conservat i ve utterances were opposed by demands from eager reformers. Considerable interest cancerned the rela tive weights given "formal" nnd "material" education. To a cenain extent externa! ideas, such as "new humanist" thinking, were also accepted. According to the Commission's suggesled Ordinance, made law in 1820, the former trivial schools were replaced by 2- or 3-class "apologist" schools and 3- or 4-class grammar schools.

Då Vasa övningsskola för sitt trettionionde verksamhetsår antog mottot: Solidaritet och identitet i skola och samhälle innebar det en stor utmaning, med frågor som Vilka är vi? Vem är jag? Vårt ansvar? Min delaktighet? Många av livets stora frågor. Jag vågar inte lova att vi funnit svar på alla frågor, lika litet som herrarna som citerades, men vi har alla beretts möjlighet att reflektera över det som medborgarrättskämpen Rosa Parks så trosvisst anförde: Vi finns här på jorden för att leva, växa och göra vad vi kan för att världen skall bli en bättre plats för alla. Aktiviteterna inom Vasa övningsskola är erkänt mångsidiga.

A Study of a Latin School Tradition c. 1620 – c. 1820 Author: Axel Hörstedt Language: English This study is concerned with Latin dissertations and disputations in the early modern Swedish gymnasium in the period c. 1620 – c. 1820. Interest in early modern academic dissertations and disputations has increased during the last few decades and has generated a number of studies, while, on the other hand, gymnasial dissertations and disputations have not earned any scholarly attention at all, which makes this study the first of its kind. The aim is to give an overview of the practice of disputations in Swedish gymnasiums and also (to some extent) in primary schools. Characteristics and functions of printed gymnasial dissertations are analyzed and discussed, through consideration of typographic appearance, distribution in time, and choice of subject, as well as the role of the different participants (respondent, opponent, praeses and audience) and the question of authorship. Particular attention is paid to the social role of gymnasial dissertations by examination of paratexts (social peritexts), such as dedications, prefaces and congratulatory poetry.

    sofia kotilainen Literacy Skills as Local Intangible Capital The History of a Rural Lending Library c. 1860–1920 Studia Fennica Historica The Finnish Literature Society (SKS) was founded in 1831 and has, from the very beginning, engaged in publishing operations. It nowadays publishes literature in the fields of ethnology and folkloristics, linguistics, literary research and cultural history. The first volume of the Studia Fennica series appeared in 1933. Since 1992, the series has been divided into three thematic subseries: Ethnologica, Folkloristica and Linguistica. Two additional subseries were formed in 2002, Historica and Litteraria.
