  • The Nyhavn Experience
    The Nyhavn Experience A non-representational perspective The deconstruction of the Nyhavn experience through hygge By Maria Sørup-Høj Aalborg University 2017 Tourism Master Thesis Supervisor: Martin Tranberg Jensen Submission date: 31 May 2017 Abstract This thesis sets out to challenge the existing way of doing tourism research by using a non- representational approach in looking into the tourist experience of Nyhavn, Denmark. The Nyhavn experience is deconstructed through the Danish phenomenon hygge, where it is being investigated how the contested space of Nyhavn with its many rationalities creates the frames, which hygge may unfold within. It is demonstrated how hygge is a multiple concept, which is constituted through various elements, including the audience, the actors and their actions, the weather, the sociality, the materiality and the political landscape in Nyhavn. The elements in the study are being discussed separately in order to give a better view on the different aspects. However, it is important to note point out that these aspects cannot be seen as merely individual aspects of establishing hygge, but that they are interrelated and interconnected in the creation of the atmosphere of hygge. The collecting of the data was done via embodied methods inspired by the performative turn in tourism, where the focus is on the embodied and multisensous experience. This is carried out by integrating pictures, video and audio clips, observant participation and impressionist tales in order to try to make the ephemeral phenomenon hygge as concrete as possible. Furthermore, data have been collected via netnography on TripAdvisor and travel blogs respectively. The study is characterized by being transdisciplinary, where theory has been drawn in from various fields, such as tourism, human geography, sociology, anthropology and sociology of the senses.

  • Det Historiske Hjørne V/ Jørgen Villadsen W2C3 Grønnegårds Havn
    Det historiske hjørne v/ Jørgen Villadsen W2C3 Grønnegårds Havn. ”Christiansbro er den nye eksklusive del af Christianshavn, der ligger fra Knippelsbro og ned til Christianshavns kanal.” hedder det i Skanskas reklamemateriale for byggeriet Enhjørningen. Det materiale vi modtog ved den første information om byggeriet. Jeg vil i det følgende prøve at give en beskrivelse af området fra Arilds tid og til i dag, hvor det indrammes af Torvegade, Overgaden neden Vandet, Hammershøj Kaj og havnepromenaden langs kontorbygningerne. Oprindelig var området et lavvandet sumpet område mellem Amager og Sjælland, hvor sejlbare render lå over mod fiskerlejet Havn på Sjællands kyst. På nogle små øer byggede Absalon borg i 1167. Der hvor Christiansborg i dag ligger. Det ældste billedmateriale fra omkring 1580 og samtidige skriftlige kilder viser at forsyninger med fødevarer til København fra Amager foregik ved en primitiv færgefart mellem Revsholm på Amager og Københavns havn ved nuværende Højbro Plads. (Skovserkonens stade.) Københavns havn var på denne tid kun vandet mellem Slotsholmen og København. Nuværende Frederiksholms kanal og Gl. Strand. Der var dog et yderligere sejlløb i forlængelse af Gl. Strand, Bremerholm dyb. Det er fyldt op i dag og findes kun i gadenavnene, Dybensgade, Bremerholm og Holmens bro. I 1556 forærer Christian den III Københavns borgere Grønnegårds havn . Et område der svarer til grundene hvorpå Enhjørningen, Løven og Elefanten er placeret. Dengang var området først og fremmest vand omgivet af lidt sumpet land mod øst. Havnen blev brugt som vinterhavn for Københavns handelsskibe, der her kunne ligge i læ for vejr og vind, når de var lagt op for vinteren.

Bruun (1831-1906).2 Der synes siden da at være opnået en slags konsensus om, at fragmen- tet er en autograf: Det er Saxos egen hånd, såvel i hovedteksten som i tilføjelser mellem linjerne og i marginen på bl.a. fol. 1r, se fig. 1. Tilføjelserne repræsenterer to faser af forfatterens videre stilistiske og indholdsmæssige be- og omarbejdning af den renskrevne grundtekst. Den såkaldte “tredje hånd”, der er i en fra resten af fragmentet stærkt afvigende 1300-tals kursivskrift, er den eneste anden hånd repræsente- ret ud over Saxos egen.

  • Søren Larsen © James D Parbery 2020-2021 This Edition 22 March 2021
    TIMELINE Søren Larsen © James D Parbery 2020-2021 this edition 22 March 2021 The Danes have been building wooden ships since long before the Viking Era (c.790-1100 AD) and passing on skills from father to son while refining the method and ship design through the centuries. The principal building material, oak, was seriously depleted in most European countries by the late 19th century except in Denmark where oak forests were well managed at the initiative of King Frederich VI 1768 – 1839. Consequently wooden ship building in Denmark continued well into the 20th century. Søren Larsen, launched in 1948, was one of the last of these ships built in the 20th century for commercial cargo - a Baltic trader or sejlede paket (sailing packet) as the Danes called it. The builders, Søren Larsen og Sønners, named the ship after themselves as she was exceptionally well built and the last of a kind - a ship they could name with pride. Søren Larsen now has a rich history spanning almost seventy-five years and has sailed every ocean. She is in excellent condition, still sailing, currently based in Sydney, Australia. If readers have more information, articles, photographs etc to offer please contact James Parbery; [email protected] . 1 of 23 TIMELINE Søren Larsen © James D Parbery 2020-2021 this edition 22 March 2021 THE DANISH YEARS - CARGO SHIP 1948 - 1976 1945 May 5 End of Second World War; Denmark is liberated from German occupation. Mines had been laid throughout the Danish sea lanes during the war and these remain a hazard to shipping, with a significant loss of life until at least 1950 when all mines were finally cleared.

Powazek Master of Arts, Graduate Program in Art History University of California, Riverside, June 2020 Dr. Kristoffer Neville, Chairperson When the Albertine Dukes of Saxony gained the Electoral privilege in the second half of the sixteenth century, they ascended to a higher echelon of European princes. Elector August (r. 1553-1586) marked this new status by commissioning a monumental tomb in Freiberg Cathedral in Saxony for his deceased brother, Moritz, who had first won the Electoral privilege for the Albertine line of rulers. The tomb’s magnificence and scale, completed in 1563, immediately set it into relation to the grandest funerary memorials of Europe, the tombs of popes and monarchs, and thus establishing the new Saxon Electors as worthy peers in rank and status to the most powerful rulers of the period. By the end of his reign, Elector August sought to enshrine the succeeding rulers of his line in an even grander project, a dynastic chapel built into Freiberg Cathedral directly in front of the tomb of Moritz.
