Kristina's Books kristina’s books Moberg’s affair with Kristina Odelberg/Hedenblad was discovered through this collection of presentation copies. She was apparently of great importance to the author, who sent her these books, many of them with intimate inscriptions, between the years 1945 and 1969. No. 6 in this collection, the copy of Vår ofödde son (Our Unborn Son), a play which deals with an abortion, is the only book that has been subject to a book- binder’s care, suggesting that this book/theme was essential to Kristina. The inscription of the translator in the copy of the Danish edition of the same work (No. 15), which says ”this book, which is partly about you [...]”, makes it clear. Not much is known about this woman, but we know that she married an officer in Linköping in 1948, the same year as Moberg went to USA to start his research for The Emigrant Novels. No serious attempt to write Moberg’s biography has been made since Magnus von Platen published the first part of his planned monograph Den( unge Vilhelm Moberg. En levnadsteckning, 1978), which follows Moberg into the 1930s. His relationship to Kristina throws new light on his literary works from the 1940s and onward and can not be neglected, should a definitive biography ever be written. 1. Inom Baggemosa ägogränser.

America in My Childhood Ulf Beijbom * "Moshult was a little part of the world where thoughts of distant places usually did not stretch any farther than to Skruv and Emmaboda," tells the old cantor Ivar Svensson in the Algutsboda book. The exception, of course, was America, which was always in the thoughts of the people of Algutsboda during the time when Vilhelm grew up. America had become a household word, comparable to heaven. The blissful lived there, but could not be seen. Here, as in most other parishes in Smaland, America was considered a western offshoot to the home area. This was especially true about Minnesota and Chisago County, "America's Smaland," which became the most common destination for the emigrants from Algutsboda and Ljuder parishes. Most people in the area had only a vague idea about the Promised Land or the U.S.A.

  • Swedish Americans Encounter Homeland Swedes
    American Studies in Scandinavia, 48:2 (2016), pp. 107-121. Published by the Nordic Association for American Studies (NAAS). “Very Welcome Home Mr. Swanson”: Swedish Americans Encounter Homeland Swedes Dag Blanck Uppsala University Abstract: This article examines different patterns of interaction between Swedish Americans and the homeland, and my interest is in the significance and consequences of these encounters. The mass emigration of some 1,3 million Swedes in the 19th and early 20th centuries was a fundamental event in Swedish history, and as a result a separate social and cultural community—Swedish America—was created in the U.S. and a specific population group of Swedish Americans emerged. Close to a fifth of these Swedish Americans returned to Sweden, and in their interaction with the old homeland they were seen as a distinct group in Sweden and became carriers of a specific American experience. Swedish Americans thus became a visible sub-group in Sweden and it is the significance of this population that I am interested in. The article looks at both material and immaterial effects of the return migration and at the larger significance of Swedish America and Swedish Americans for Sweden. Key words: Swedish Americans, Return migration, immigration In April of 1957, a specially chartered SAS DC 6 landed at Bulltofta air- port in Malmö in southern Sweden. On board were 70 passengers who had boarded the plane in Chicago the previous day. They were all Swedish Americans and relatives and friends of Ragnar Benson, the hugely suc- cessful Chicago contractor and Swedish immigrant, embarking on a twelve day family reunion tour of Ragnar Benson´s ancestral area in and around Älmhult in southern Småland.

Personal Names . 42 I. INTRODUCTION Swedish American studies, including local history and genealogy, are among the best documented immigrant studies in the United States. This is the result of the Swedish genius for documenting almost every aspect of life from birth to death. They have, in fact, created and retained documents that Americans would never think of looking for, such as certificates of change of employment, of change of address, military records relating whether a soldier's horse was properly equipped, and more common events such as marriage, emigration, and death. When immigrants arrived in the United States and found that they were not bound to the single state religion into which they had been born, the Swedish church split into many denominations that emphasized one or another aspect of religion and culture. Some required children to study the mother tongue in Saturday classes, others did not. Some, more liberal than European Swedish Lutheranism, permitted freedom of religion in the new country and even allowed sects to flourish that had been banned in Sweden.

  • Emigration and Literature: Vilhelm Moberg
    EMIGRATION AND LITERATURE: VILHELM MOBERG Peter Graves Vilhelm Moberg (1898-1973) was the first Swedish writer of fiction to take up the great migrations to North America during the 19th century as a literary theme. He was the son of a soldier-crofter under the old military system whereby Sweden supported its reserve army through each parish having the duty to provide a soldier by making available a croft on which he could work and support his family. The emigration was, so to speak, there in Moberg's background long before it became a source of literary inspiration to him. His home province - Smaland in southern Sweden - consistently stood top of the league table of provinces that sent their sons and daughters out on the emigrant trail to a hoped-for better life. Throughout the period 1850-1930 Smaland was dispatching an annual average of 4.6 emigrants per thousand inhabitants, and in the 1880s that figure peaked at about 11 per thousand. The only province to exceed it in both respects was Halland - the province that borders it to the south-west. And if this particular provincial background predisposed Moberg to take up the theme ofemigration so equally did his family background. In an autobiographical article in 1957 he wrote: 'On the soldier croft where I was born and grew up they talked every day about the country where my parents' brothers and sisters lived. I remember the word America right from the earliest stage in my child­ hood when I first began to understand words.' On both maternal and paternal sides of his family almost all his aunts and uncles were in America, and in the same biographical anecdote he tells us: 'For a long time I thought that cousins were a sort of posh upper-class children only to be found in America.' He himself was due to join these transatlantic cousins as a 16 year old in 1914, but the remaining family at home - his mother in particular - pleaded with him to stay.
