Old regimes, both on a metaphorical and a concrete level, were about to fall and be replaced with something radically new. But the ideals of the En- lightenment – political and religious tolerance, freedom of thought, the belief in human rationality and progress – lived side by side with traditional values: political stability, religious unity, control of dangerous thoughts, the belief in divine providence, and a past golden age. The people of the eighteenth century lived at this crossroads of old and new paths. It is often said that it is first in the eighteenth century we find humans that we immediately can understand and intuitively feel we share something with. We are as post-modernists descendants of these first modern humans. The literary remains, diaries, letters, protocols and other sources let us peer into the minds and lives of the people at this turbulent and critical moment in human history – a time when old beaten tracks met new roads leading into the future. The contributions to this volume of Sjuttonhundratal: Nordic Yearbook for Eighteenth-Century Studies all deal in various ways with the Old and the New. It is about ingenuity and classical erudition, the rights of women and control of sexual behaviour, military life and new markets, religious tolerance

Para uso da Embaixada da República Federativa do Brasil 4 Preface A vision of humanity and responsibility In the late 1930s, society as a whole − and public opinion − had not yet fully embraced the idea of and attention to human rights and was not consistently engaged in humanitarian assistance. With the exception of the endorsement by a relative few, as the International Red Cross (1863), Save the Children (1919), those concepts became widely accepted only decades later. The League of Nations, an outcome of the Versailles Treaty of 1919, already had failed in its mission to protect citizens and maintain peace and was replaced with the establishment of the United Nations only in 1945, which in turn took a long time to become effective in the field of International Humanitarian Law. But in those troubled times when States failed to guarantee the integrity of their civilian citizens, men and women of principle acted on their own to defend the dignity and survival of many people, and among those heroic individuals were two great diplomats, a Brazilian and a Swede, who are exemplars of two very important traits for the career: diplomacy requires both passion and perspective.

  • The Dying Gaul: Examining the Inverse Relationship Between Lay and Religious Masculinities in Merovingian Gaul, 450-750
    The Dying Gaul: Examining the Inverse Relationship between Lay and Religious Masculinities in Merovingian Gaul, 450-750 by Peter Henric Johnsson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre of Medieval Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Peter Johnsson « Year of Convocation» The Dying Gaul Peter Johnsson Doctor of Philosophy Centre of Medieval Studies University of Toronto 2020 Abstract This dissertation examines the interrelation between concepts of masculinity among the laity and the clergy in the Merovingian era of Gaul, fifth to seventh centuries. In doing so, the work aims to fill a gap in current scholarship by examining the relationship between religious men and lay men, rather than as separate groups, which has often been the trend to date. The focus is on specific sites of difference where masculine ideals came into conflict. Beginning with a brief examination of the transmission of classical neo-platonic ideals into the culture of the ecclesiastical aristocracy of the fifth century, I will provide a background for the religious masculinity against which the lay examples are framed. The study then moves on to the contrasting ideals surrounding hair, using a methodological framework of contrasting masculinities to demonstrate that the long hair of the Franks and the tonsuring of the clergy both reflected antithetical representations of each others’ masculinities. Chapter four examines the relationship between feasting and fasting culture among the laity and the clergy, as the participation in, and rejection of imbibing served to distinguish both groups of men through contrasting ideals. The following chapter examines the role that sexual conduct played in notions of honour particularly in the laity.

Carl-Erik Johansson 1917-2000 Nils William Olsson· Genealogists in Sweden and Swedish-America are mourning the death of Carl-Erik Johansson, who died in Salt Lake City 20 March this year at the age of 82. The cause of death was diabetes and heart failure. With the demise of Carl­ Erik, Swedish-America has lost its most eminent genealogist and student of family history. Carl-Erik was born in Malmo, Sweden, on 21 October 1917, the son of Carl I. E. Johansson, a saddler and manufacturer of leather goods, and his wife Syster Emilia. After elementary and secondary schools, Carl-Erik volunteered for service in the Swedish Army, where his ability and knowledge soon caught the attention of his officers. They recommended him for further studies, from which he was graduated with honors as number one in his class. He next received an appointment to the elite Royal Svea Life Guards in Stockholm, where he eventually, through exemplary service, reached the rank of captain.

  • Military and Nature an Environmental History of Swedish Military Landscapes
    Henrik Strömsten Military and nature An environmental history of Swedish military landscapes Master’s thesis in Global Environmental History 1 2 Abstract Strömsten, H. 2016. Military and nature: An environmental history of Swedish military land- scapes. Uppsala, Dept of Archaeology and Ancient History. This thesis, an environmental history of a selected number of Swedish military training environments, is based on observation of military landscapes with a permanent presence of military-related objects and activities, all of which leave their traces in the environment, and how continued military activity is legiti- mised with environmental arguments. By also observing military policies and documents, I look into how the Swedish military frame their own training environments, and how ‘environmentalist’ discourses is adopted to justify past and present activities. The military landscapes must also be considered in a wider context of geopolitics and security; hence I also include an historical analysis of military land appropria- tion and defense policy in Sweden. An important contribution with this thesis, besides provide a Swedish context to studies of military landscapes, lies also in testing a historical ecological framework in analyses and methods when approaching research on military landscapes, as I consider this thesis as a pilot-project on Swedish military landscapes providing incentives for further studies. The Swedish military landscapes studied in this thesis have both a centennial and decadal presence of military activities. Some training sites such as Marma and Revinge, which are also Natura 2000 areas, have had a military presence since the 19th century, and the various military structures and buildings pro- mote a kind of military biography, an identity tied to landscapes, reinforcing military presence.

  • In Some Situations You Have to Bang Your Head Into the Wall in Order to Get Respected (Informant F)
    “In Some Situations You Have to Bang Your Head into the Wall in Order to Get Respected ” A Qualitative Study of Female Cadets’ Experiences whilst Studying at the Swedish Military Academy and Serving in the Swedish Armed Forces By Irja Malmio, Stéphanie Björklund, Johan Österberg & Sofia Svénsen In 1980 it became possible for Swedish women to apply to the Armed Forces. While its purpose was first and foremost to widen the recruitment base, this move was also partly a response to a changing societal environment in the Cold War’s final decades, which called for a greater emphasis on diversity.1 However, despite the fact that Sweden is one of the most gender-equal countries in the world, the number of women serving in combat positions in the Swedish military still remains low, and they are also markedly underrepresented higher up in the hierarchy.2 Ever since women started to enrol in the armed services, there has been a growing awareness that there is a problem with female representation, and several attempts have been made to increase their numbers. In recent years, the Swedish Armed Forces (SAF) have undergone a profound transformation in that regard, in large part implemented as a response to Resolution 1325 passed by the UN Security Council in 2000. The conversion to this new framework was also an echo of larger changes in a world where new technology was leading to complete renewals in many areas, and where the military’s main focus lay on peacekeeping operations rather than on operational combat skills.3 In order to respond to these developments, it has become a necessity not only to recruit more women to the services but also to increase the number of females in leading positions.
