Tangherlini, Chair The image of a red cottage with white corners in a rural idyllic setting holds an iconic status in visual representations of Sweden, and has been produced and reproduced in commercial advertising and tourist industry as well as in the visual rhetoric of contesting political parties for over more than a century. The cottage’s conspicuous position in visual representations of Sweden speaks to the need for an in-depth analysis of the cottage as a trope of national identity. Despite this, it has not received greater attention in research on national symbols and national identity in the field of Scandinavian studies. My dissertation aims to fill this gap by a sustained, close reading of the red cottage as a continuous symbol through which national identity is manifested, and problematized. To fully understand the contemporary position of the red cottage’s position as ”key- ! ii! symbol” in visual representation of Sweden or ”Swedishness”, it is crucial to put it in its socio- historical context. In this dissertation, historical analysis is paired with semiotic visual studies. The broad use of the red cottage furthermore calls for an interdisciplinary approach. The theories used in the different sections are therefore drawn from the broad field of cultural studies, anthropology and consumer culture theory. The stereotypical picture of a red cottage in a rural idyll emerged from the dovetailing of the urgent housing situation for the working class and the quest for a new, democratic nationalism during the early twentieth century. By using examples from education, tourism, advertising and politics, the dissertation shows how the red cottage over time was transformed into a Barthesian “myth”, where all possible meanings has been condensed and naturalized to the “Swedish home.” Through this overdetermination the rural idyll attracts users from a wide spectra, and has often been used to manifest opposing interests. Despite the stereotypical representation of the Swedish countryside, the cottage-idyll is part of a dynamic process of becoming rather than being. Although the depiction of the cottage idyll has remained quite static over the century, the question of who is to inhabit this home is a matter of constant negotiation. ! iii!

The comments and ideas given by Dell Upton and Arne Lunde considerably improved this dissertation. My deepest thanks to my graduate advisor and committee chair Timothy Tangherlini for always making time to discuss ideas, read drafts and making sure the espresso machine works. In addition to being an outstanding advisor Timothy is an incredible editor, and at times the only one who has been able to read my ”Swenglish.” I could not have done this without his sharp eyes, fruitful comments, and kind words. Above all, I would like to thank the Scandinavian Section at UCLA. The relaxed, welcoming attitude that permeates the section, and the friendliness of its faculty and students has made the office a home far away from home. Not only did they make the years at UCLA tremendously stimulating, but also enjoyable and fun. My time at UCLA would not have been as rewarding without my graduate peers. Besides fruitful conversations, their company gave me necessary breaks from writing. A special thanks to Kimberly La Palm who, besides being a supporting and honest colleague, also became one of my closest friends. Although busy with their own work, Kimberly, and Marcus Cederström at University of Wisconsin, Madison, made time to read and comment on several chapters of this dissertation. This dissertation would have been impossible to write without the support from friends and colleagues in Sweden. I am grateful for the friendship of Caroline Sturman. Besides listening to my rambling thoughts about the dissertation for hours, I often interrupted Caroline’s work with linguistic questions. Thanks to Ulf Palmenfelt, for convincing me to apply for graduate school and for always having a kind word and good advice up his sleeve, and to my ”academic mother” ! xi! Åsa Ljungström, who still has me under her wing.

Ives “All passes; art alone enduring stays to us; I lie bust outlasts the throne^ the coin, Tiberius.” A I an early day after the opening of the Exposition, it became evident that there was a large class of visitors made up of students, teachers and others, who desired a more extensive and intimate knowledge of individual works than could be gained from a cursory view, guided by a conventional catalogue. 11 undreds of letters from persons especially interested in acquiring intimate knowledge of the leading char¬ acteristics of the various schools of expression repre¬ sented have been received; indeed, for two months be¬ fore the opening of the department, every mail carried replies to such letters, giving outlines of study, courses of reading, and advice to intending visitors.

  • World Masters Orienteering Championships Gothenburg 2015 Bulletin 2
    World Masters Orienteering Championships Gothenburg 2015 Bulletin 2 Greetings On behalf of the IOF Council I want to welcome you to the World Masters Orienteering Championships in Gothenburg. One of the greatest strengths of our sport is that it is for people of all ages and our annual festival of the WMOC demonstrates that so clearly. I want to thank the Swedish Orienteering Federation for their willingness to host this World Masters Championships and I also want to thank the mayor and people of the City of Gothenburg for what I am sure will be the warmest of welcomes to masters orienteers from all over the world. Above all, I want to wish all those of you who are participating in the Championships, success and enjoyment as you run in the beautiful Swedish forests and may you all make new friends in our great world orienteering family. Brian Porteous, President IOF At last we can welcome you back to Sweden! Welcome to World Masters Orienteering Championships in Sweden and in Gothenburg! Finally our dream will be fulfilled, i.e. to see all the world master orienteerers compete in Gothenburg and its surroundings. Our great hope is that you all will have demanding courses and fair competitions in a beautiful Swedish environment. A Masters Championship is much more than that. Many of you have participated in this competition several times before, perhaps already in Åmål 1988, so you know that no two competitions are the same. This year the vision is a compact event with short distances to everything which we hope you will appreciate.

Curator of the exhibition is Maarin Mürk. The name of the exhibition comes from the Roland Barthes essay The Writer on Holiday, in which he looked at writers as the bourgeoisie might see them – as false workers, who by the same token can only be false holiday-makers as well, who can be spotted reading a book even when they’re lazing on the beach.

  • Lessons Learned from Swedish Family Policies
    Uppsala, Sweden November 10, 2010 Dear Reader, This is a draft text of the lecture given for the Forum Européen de Femmes in Brussels on November 3, 2010. This is not the actual text presented – it is rather the text written from memory after the presentation using the actual slides. As this presentation was given with a special target group in mind, who also had the opportunity at the presentation to ask questions, there will of course be ques- tions raised by this written presentation which are not possible for me to answer in person. I am working on an condensed English translation of the Swedish book on which this presentation is based. When this book is published in late 2011, this should hopefully answer some more questions. At The Mireja Institute home page you will also find more written work in English by me. The will also be the possibility to pre-order the book. Jonas Himmelstrand Links: The Mireja Institute: www.mireja.org Articles in English: www.mireja.org/articles.lasso Information on the English book: www.mireja.org/english_book.html __________________________________________________________________ Contact information: Jonas Himmelstrand The Mireja Institute Box 1837, 751 48 Uppsala, Sweden E-mail: [email protected] Phone: +46-18-10 14 50 __________________________________________________________________ Due to time constraints this written presentation has been rushed to finish.
