Final Syllabus Final Syllabus Royalty in the Land of Equality DIS Spring Semester 2017 3-Credit Course Meeting Time & Classroom: 8:30 - 9:50 AM on Tuesdays and Fridays in V10 – A33 Major Disciplines: History, Sociology Instructor: Steffen Løvkjær. Cand.mag. French, History and History of Art (University of Copenhagen and Sorbonne, Paris, France). Attached to The Danish Royal Collection at Rosenborg and Chr.VIII’s Palace at Amalienborg as Assistant Curator since 1998. With DIS since 2011. DIS contacts: Matthew Kelley, Program Assistant, European Humanities Department Course Content: In this class we will discuss how the royal family of Denmark has had a large impact on the history, architecture, urban planning and art world of the country. A comparative study of other European royal families will be included as well as a look into American “royal” families, such as the Kennedys and Clintons. How do Americans and other nations perceive the Danish royal family? Why is it that people seem to need these figures in society? How can a slightly anachronistic leading institution seem to work without friction in an unchallenged balance with a nation of today? What is the role of the media and how does the royal family act with the press? Is there a future for the monarchy as an institution in the years to come? Several visits to castles and monuments in and outside Copenhagen will be included, as well as visits to various museums. Learning Objectives: The course will provide students with an in-depth understanding and knowledge of the conception of a monarchy with the Danish one in focus. The students will understand how the monarchical tradition is the spine in quite a few of the nations in the Old World and thus how that way of rule is the key to the understanding of Europe and its differences. Royalty in the Land of Equality| DIS | Major Disciplines: History, Sociology Final Syllabus At the end of the course, students will be able to: • Identify and distinguish the nature of the Danish monarchy by themes, styles and influences • Demonstrate an understanding of Danish society due to its history as a kingdom • Understand the meaning of the Old World • Recognize the importance of iconography and architecture as symbolic instruments of power • Discuss to what extent the monarchy is synonymous with the identity of the nation Evaluation: For an explanation of the assignments, expectations and grading, see below and page 3 of this syllabus. • Engagement 20% • Test 15% • Picture Analysis 20% • Interview Assignment 15% • Synopsis 5% • Final Written Assignment 25% Engagement = attendance, active participation in class discussions, field studies, being prepared for class by doing the reading and preparing questions and observations, and individual student presentations (not mandatory). Test = 30 min. written test given in class February 21st, Class 8. Questions will reflect readings and class discussions. Picture Analysis = 4 p. picture analysis (assignment due March 10th, Class 11), at the EH office, Vestergade B10) Interview Assignment = Each student will interview two Danes on their views on the Danish monarchy. Students formulate and ask 4 questions based on class discussion and present their work April 7th, Class 17. 1 – 1,5 p. Synopsis = 1 p. synopsis on final paper topic May 2nd, Class 22. Final Written Assignment = 8-10 p. final paper on The Future of the Monarchy, with focus on the Danish Final paper due May 10th. Royalty in the Land of Equality| DIS | Major Disciplines: History, Sociology Final Syllabus There will be writing assignments where you will be assessed on your analysis, overall view, conclusions and support of your ideas and thesis. If you are unclear as to what I require – or what is rewarded – please ask. Students must complete all course work in order to receive a passing grade. Course Context: The Danish monarchy is the oldest in the world and the royal family enjoys and is surrounded by a profound respect and devotion from its subjects, the Danish population. The course will start with an introduction to the idea of a monarchy and how Denmark as a nation was founded around 1200 years ago with a King in front as the symbol of military power and political leadership and later on sociological supremacy. We will discuss the development of the monarchy and see how that way of rule gradually becomes synonymous with the identity of the country. Royal architecture and art industry will be studied and discussed and parallels will be made with other European royal dynasties. References and a discussion of American “royalty” such as political dynasties as the Kennedys will form part of putting into perspective the apparent need of a population for a father family. And we will discover how this, in a way, anachronistic institution is still pertinent in the 21st century. Several scholastic approaches to the topic will be observed; historically, socio-culturally and art historically among others. Field studies: The classroom will occasionally grow and Copenhagen with its streets and monuments will embrace us. Half-day trips to palaces and churches Field studies are mandatory. Expectations: Students are expected to have read the materials for each class and actively participate in discussions. Students should come prepared to class with questions and points for discussion. Approach to Teaching: I am enthusiastic about royal history, its origin and nature and I bring this enthusiasm to my teaching. Power point, DVD and YouTube will be used as well as Copenhagen, monuments, parks and palaces to constitute aids to the teaching. I will start out with some background lectures. Royalty in the Land of Equality| DIS | Major Disciplines: History, Sociology Final Syllabus Since I take a cultural/historical approach to royalty, there will be some lectures with exposure of ideas to identify the history and iconography of a monarchy and its royal family. But for the most part, the class will be based on analysis of texts, visits, videos, student presentations and discussion. In order to obtain a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere for everyone, engagement is indeed expected. Teaching, discussions and field studies will be academic, but in an unstuffy, un-academic atmosphere. As I find the topic of the course interesting the teaching is to be too. I expect you to help me in that matter and my ambition is to create a classroom culture where it is safe to ask questions. A word about grades: I realize that grades are important to you, but try not to let your anxiety about grades prevent you from taking intellectual risks and stay numb without asking about the reading and what we discuss. I do not grade to reward you, but neither to punish you and my grade is to give you my honest assessment of your academic performance. Practical Matters/Classroom Policies: Students are expected to be on time to class, being in the classroom or for a field study. If students miss multiple classes, it will affect their engagement grade. Allowances, of course, will be made in case of illness but missing too many classes without cause may result in the student being referred to Director of Academic Support and Registrar and/or Academic Director. Laptops may be used for note-taking. Please wait until the break or time before and after class, to check email, Facebook, Twitter and check and send text messages. If surfing the internet or text messaging becomes a problem, laptops and cell phones will be banned from the classroom. N.B. All written assignments should have a title, be double-spaced, 12 font and approximately 300 words per page. Disability and resource statement: Any student who has a need for accommodation based on the impact of a disability should immediately contact Office of Academic Support ([email protected]) to coordinate this. In order to receive accommodations, students should inform the instructor of approved DIS accommodations. Readings: All course readings can be found either in the course compendium or on Canvas.

The Legacy of the Danish Resistance in World War II by Joy Ibsen Introduction When I first heard about this conference, I immediately thought of this topic, because I believe the Danish Resistance in World War II provides a legacy of critical importance. It is one which can be of help in guiding our way through today's murky social and political problems as we grapple with terrorist threats and moral issues confronting us in this new millennium. It is a story of special significance to all Danes and Danish-Americans. I have relied on several sources in developing this paper, and am especially indebted to an unpublished paper and interview with Immanuel Rodholm, my mother's cousin, who was born in Danevang, Texas, and who moved to Denmark as a young boy. Immanuel, or lb as he is called, has enjoyed a distinguished career.

  • Peeking Into the Danish Living Room. Internet Access To
    Peeking Into the Danish Living Room Internet access to a large speech corpus Peter Juel Henrichsen Dept, of Danish Dialectology and Dept, of General and Applied Linguistics (lAAS) Univ. of Copenhagen, Njalsgade 80, DK-2300 S, Denmark [email protected] 1. Introduction Our newly opened Internet site offers a view to a >10* word corpus of informal Danish conversations. The corpus and the search engine situated at lAAS can now be reached and used as easily as any homepage on the World Wide Web, offering a tool for serious investigations into informal speech. After a few introductory remarks, we shall present the corpus and the search engine as seen from the user’s point of view, following up the presentation with a few example queries. In conclusion, some reflections on the possibilities that the Internet has to offer in utilisation, maintenance, and control of large corpora of semi-confidential data. The new site may be reached directly at the URL http://phoneme.cphling.dk/BySoc , or else via the lAAS home page at http://www.cphling.dk 1.1 Why study informal speech? Ordinary people are common. Most of the day, they talk casually, taking part in informal conversations. So, by far the largest part of the language national product must be plain and simple vernacular. Moreover, most children acquire their mother tongue exposed to this style only, arguably making it the most essential part as well. Still, the syntax and semantics of informal speech have hardly been studied at all with the exact means of modem formal grammar. Why? Firstly, because informal speech is irregular, seen from a traditional syntactic point of view, making it much more recalcitrant to work with than educated written style.

  • Amaliekai, Amaliehaven and Amalienborg Slot
    Amaliekai, Amaliehaven and Amalienborg Slot A stroll from Nyhavn along Amaliekai towards the Royal Palaces and castles of Amalienborg provides an excellent view of Denmark’s Opera House which appears to float upon the water opposite Ameliehaven. If looking in the other di- rection, you’ll get a fantastic view of Danish ar- chitecture that includes the Marble church, Fre- deriksstaden - a district of the city renowned for the important rococo complexes, Amalienborg Palace Square, and harbour beyond. Amalie Garden, is one of the newest parks the city has, opening to the public in 1983. This pret- ty spot was once a busy shipyard and docklands with bustling warehouses and a quay door di- rectly accessing the Royal Family’s residence. The garden was designed by Jean Delogne, a landscape architect, and the four bronze co- lumns and central fountain were created by the Italian sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro. The addition of this green space in the urban centre was welcomed by most and a part of the redevelopment of the entire Copenhagen port area from industrial use to residential and re- creational spaces. Amalienborg Slot serves as the home for the Danish Royal Family and is the Queen’s official winter residence. The castle complex is made up of four separate palaces, built around an octagonal square with classical palace faca- des and rococo interiors. Situated in the cen- tre of the square is an equestrian statue of King Frederik V. Originally built for four noble families, the Royal family purchased it and took up resi- dence after their Christiansborg Palace burnt down in 1794.

  • Three Steps to Select Classes at the University of Leicester
    Three Steps to Select Classes at the University of Copenhagen 1. Look at the University of Copenhagen’s list of classes at: http://kurser.ku.dk/ You will want to set up multiple filters to help you with your search. Level: “Bachelor” will cover almost all of the undergraduate classes available. There are a small number of undergraduate courses in the Faculty of Humanities that are coded “Bachelor choice” and not “Bachelor”, so you may want to do two searches when reviewing undergraduate options in the Faculty of Humanities. Faculty: There are six faculties to choose from. The most common for Kansas students are the Faculty of Humanities and the Faculty of Social Sciences. The University of Copenhagen recommends only searching from the Faculty setting, and not on the Department setting, as the broader Faculty search is less likely to filter out coursework that may be what you are looking for, housed within a department you were not necessarily expecting. Language: Select “English”. Volume: Select the correct academic year. Block: In addition to autumn and spring, you also have options to select from Blocks 1-4. Block 1 is the first half of the autumn semester and Block 2 is the second half of the autumn semester. Block 3 is the first half of the spring semester and Block 4 is the second half of the spring semester. Most students will need to select two 7.5 ECTS classes in each block during their studies. This means your schedule from one half of the semester to the next half can be quite different.
