  • Chapter 3 Poetics of the Shipping Forecast
    chapter 3 Poetics of the Shipping Forecast Sanna Nyqvist Abstract This essay investigates the intertextual manifestations of radio shipping forecasts in fiction, poetry and non- fiction from the United Kingdom, Ireland, Sweden and Finland. The literary adaptations and appropriations of the functional meteor- ological report often retain its peculiar melodic character that results from the compressed, elliptic listing of observations or warnings. In the listening experience evoked by many authors the relative safety of the radio listener’s everyday surround- ings contrasts with the threat of gales and harsh conditions for seafarers. A compar- ative analysis shows that despite the insularity of the shipping forecast as a cultural phenomenon, the “literature of the shipping forecast” is surprisingly similar in dif- ferent countries, exploring the same themes of nostalgia, loss of signification and definition of borders. The essay also investigates how the shipping forecast inevitably evokes questions of territorial conquest and exclusion of others, and how its literary adaptations tend to bracket the natural phenomena that are the very raison d’être of the shipping forecast. The shipping forecast is a curious radio broadcast. Issuing gale warnings for seafarers and communicating weather information from coastal stations, it is reminiscent of a time when reliable and up- to- date weather reports were avail- able only through radio. Nowadays, professional mariners as well as pleasure boaters get the necessary weather information through modern wireless tech- nologies, and the shipping forecast has become a relic in the radio’s programme schedule. Most of the avid listeners to the radio’s shipping forecast do not need the information it conveys: they are safely situated inland, far away from the rough seas and gushing winds.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.

  • WALDEN, and on the DUTY of CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE by Henry
    WALDEN, and ON THE DUTY OF CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE By Henry David Thoreau Walden Economy When I wrote the following pages, or rather the bulk of them, I lived alone, in the woods, a mile from any neighbor, in a house which I had built myself, on the shore of Walden Pond, in Concord, Massachusetts, and earned my living by the labor of my hands only. I lived there two years and two months. At present I am a sojourner in civilized life again. I should not obtrude my affairs so much on the notice of my readers if very particular inquiries had not been made by my townsmen concerning my mode of life, which some would call impertinent, though they do not appear to me at all impertinent, but, considering the circumstances, very natural and pertinent. Some have asked what I got to eat; if I did not feel lonesome; if I was not afraid; and the like. Others have been curious to learn what portion of my income I devoted to charitable purposes; and some, who have large families, how many poor children I maintained. I will therefore ask those of my readers who feel no particular interest in me to pardon me if I undertake to answer some of these questions in this book. In most books, the I, or first person, is omitted; in this it will be retained; that, in respect to egotism, is the main difference. We commonly do not remember that it is, after all, always the first person that is speaking. I should not talk so much about myself if there were anybody else whom I knew as well.

  • Grieg Captures the Morning Sun with a Warm, Swaying Tune Played by the Flute and Oboe
    Peer Gynt Suite No 1: 1 Morning (1876) Edvard Grieg (1843-1907) Grieg captures the morning sun with a warm, swaying tune played by the flute and oboe. Violins and violas echo surging cellos and the brass add flashes of light as the sun continues to slowly rise. The tune journeys around the orchestra as the clarinet and flute imitate a dawn chorus of bird song. The flute returns to the main tune, strings shimmer and the orchestra glides to a peaceful close. Voices of Spring (1883) Johann Strauss II (1825-1899) This waltz, composed by the Viennese Waltz King, paints a vivid picture of springtime. The season arrives with a swirling waltz tune on the violins. Lambs frolic as violins leap before the whole orchestra joins in. The swirling sounds return before a frosty horn and fluttering flute interrupt a contrasting calm tune. As you listen imagine the trees swaying, flowers bursting into colour and birds singing before the orchestra finally bids a majestic farewell to winter. Water Music Suite No 2: 2 Alla Hornpipe (1717) George Frideric Handel (1685-1759) In 1717 outdoor concerts and cruises on the River Thames were just one form of entertainment on long summer evenings. The hornpipe was part of a collection of movements composed for a royal event. Handel and his musicians performed on an open barge as King George 1 and his Courtiers followed. The fleet of barges journeyed up the river from Whitehall to Chelsea as stately strings and trumpets played the opening tune. The horns echoed trumpets before a string dialogue led back to the regal main tune.
