  • The International Dissemination of Grundtvig's Educational Ideas
    The International Dissemination of Grundtvig’s Educational Ideas II: A World Map of Folk High Schools By K. E. Bugge During the 1990s the global dissemination of Grundtvig’s educational ideas was a theme of considerable interest. Several projects were launched with the purpose of recording the process. At the turn of the decennium the need for an inclusive survey of these became obvious and consequently was implemented. In 2003 a report was published (in Danish) comprising (1) a schematized registration, 52 pages, (2) a verbalized report, 25 pages, and (3) a wall map visualizing the distri- bution of the 695 registered institutions. When an interest in the dissemination theme reemerged in 2011-12, it was decided that the time had come for translating report no. 2 into English. The Danish title of that second report was Folkehøjsko- lernes Verdenskort, i.e. A World Map of Folk High Schools, published by the Grundtvig Museum in Udby. Two updates on India and Australia respectively and a few explanatory notes have been added in this translation. The First Steps At the impressive exhibition celebrating the Grundtvig bicentenary in 1983, the Museum of National History at Frederiksborg Castle featured a map, designed by Svend Erik Bjerre, Principal of the Frederiksborg Folk High School, illustrating the world-wide influence of Grundtvig’s educational ideas. The information on the map was painted on two large cardboards and supplemented by a wealth of photos and texts available in the exhibition catalogue (Eller 1983). When, some years later, the board of the Grundtvig Museum in Udby wished to exhibit this map, it did no longer exist.

  • Introduction: Shakespeare in Cross-Cultural Spaces
    Multicultural Shakespeare: Translation, Appropriation and Performance vol. 15 (30), 2016; DOI: 10.1515/mstap-2017-0001 Robert Sawyer and Varsha Panjwani Introduction: Shakespeare in Cross-Cultural Spaces The seeds for this volume were planted in the fertile soil of Guimarães, Portugal, during a colloquium organized by Francesca Rayner and the Centre for Humanistic Studies of the Universidade do Minho in October 2015, where scholars presented papers on the subject of “Shakespearean Collaborations.” Two themes emerged across many of the papers: the intercultural negotiation through Shakespeare and the consideration of spatial studies of Shakespeare. These ideas, germinated in Portugal, were then cross-pollinated with similar topics by other multinational Shakespearean scholars for this special issue on “Shakespeare in Cross-Cultural Spaces.” As we worked on this issue through 2016, the significance of discussing our first theme of cross-cultural relations became increasingly urgent. While, on the one hand, the world was marking the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death, on the other hand, political and cultural borders were being re-imagined and re-made: the United Kingdom voted to exit from the European Union, the mass-migration of refugees from war-torn countries such as Iraq, Syria and Libya continued to increase, and the U.S. president, Donald Trump, threatened to build a wall across the Mexican border during his campaign. It seemed that the currents of Shakespeare studies and performance, which were celebrating diversity and interculturalism as witnessed by publications such as Shakespeare, Race and Performance: The Diverse Bard (2016) and productions such as Royal Shakespeare Company’s Hamlet with the Black actor, Paapa Essiedu, in the lead role (both reviewed in this issue), were moving in the opposite direction to these international events.
