    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Dansksproget Digtning Under Frederik II Side 2 Af 16
    D ANSKSPROGET DIGTNING UNDER F REDERIK II Af Flemming Lundgreen-Nielsen Late medieval Catholic poetry and Lutheran pamphlets had made up the bulk of the printed matter that was published in Denmark before 1559. Under Frederik II an artistically valuable secular Danish literature slowly came into being, written by parsons, historians and teachers. Generally combining respect for the culture of ancient Rome and Greece with an eagerness to further Lutheranism, they unfortunately lacked a contemporary poetical idiom and therefore stuck to traditional stylistic devices and old- fashioned medieval metres considered outdated abroad. Anders Sørensen Vedel’s Danish translation of Saxo’s Gesta Danorum (1575) featured prominently, as did his anthology of 100 medieval popular ballads (1591), commissioned by two consecutive chancellors and by the queen respectively. Frederik II hentede gerne dygtige udlændinge til Danmark for at bibringe riget den moderne europæiske renæssances normer – i arkitektur og musik og til organisering af hoflivet. Det kunne han selvsagt ikke gøre, når det drejede sig om dansksproget digtning. Den måtte graves ud af fødelandets egen jord, ressourcerne var indskrænket til hans egne uddannede og dannede undersåtter. Baggrund I 1495 udkom Then danskæ Krønnickæ (oftest kaldt Rimkrøniken) som den første bog på dansk, der også var trykt i Danmark.1 Det er en middelalderlig tekst med uvis oprindelse, som formentlig foreligger redigeret sammen fra 1430’rne, måske ved en broder Niels i Sorø. Værket tjener med sin lange række tilbageskuende monologer af danske konger et nationalhistorisk formål som versificeret lærebog for regenter og deres undersåtter, altså den genre, der hedder speculum regale (Kongespejl). I indledende verslinjer og opsummerende karakteristikker indsættes kristelig moralisme til understregning af, hvor ilde det går konger, som ringeagter kirker, klostre og gejstligheden.

  • Wittenberg Influences on the Reformation in Scandinavia by Simo Heininen, Otfried Czaika
    Wittenberg Influences on the Reformation in Scandinavia by Simo Heininen, Otfried Czaika Wittenberg was the most important source of inspiration for the Reformation in both of the Scandinavian kingdoms, the Danish kingdom and the Swedish kingdom. In both kingdoms, the authorities played a defining role in the Reformation, though it proceeded very differently in these two Early Modern states. The Reformation became securely established most quickly – both politically and in terms of church law – in the Danish core territory. Sweden, on the other hand, was de facto already a Lutheran country before 1550, though it did not become Lutheran de jure also until the last decade of the 16th century. Particularly in the peripheral parts of Scandinavia (especially Norway and Iceland), the Reformation went hand in hand with closer political integration in Scandinavia and it was therefore adopted rather reluctantly by the population. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Political Background 2. Denmark 3. Norway and Iceland 4. Sweden 5. Finland 6. Conclusion 7. Appendix 1. Sources 2. Bibliography 3. Notes Indices Citation Political Background From 1397, the kingdoms of Denmark, Norway and Sweden were united in a personal union (the so-called Kalmar Union) under Danish control (ᇄ Media Link #ab). In the early-16th century, the union was approaching its end. There were increasing tensions between Denmark and Sweden, the latter being governed by regents from the House of Sture. In November 1520, Christian II of Denmark (1481–1559) (ᇄ Media Link #ac), the last union king, was crowned for a second time in Stockholm. After the coronation festivities had been concluded, a heresy trial was staged with the help of the Archbishop of Uppsala and the accused were the supporters of the Sture party.
