Since then Göteborg has been struggling to transform itself into a successful post-industrial city. The political leadership has worked diligently at promoting Göteborg as a knowledge and event city with the goal of creating growth in the region. After the shipyard crisis an area on the waterfront called Lindholmen was planned for housing, green areas and the preservation of an historically valuable building. In 1997, however, this all changed when the pri- vate company Ericsson started to look for a new office location and showed interest in the area. The company demanded the establishment of an IT-cluster consisting of 10 000 workplaces on the pier. This started a process which re- sulted in Lindholmen Science Park, a growth environment for knowledge in- tensive, high-tech companies.

  • How Uniform Was the Old Norse Religion?
    II. Old Norse Myth and Society HOW UNIFORM WAS THE OLD NORSE RELIGION? Stefan Brink ne often gets the impression from handbooks on Old Norse culture and religion that the pagan religion that was supposed to have been in Oexistence all over pre-Christian Scandinavia and Iceland was rather homogeneous. Due to the lack of written sources, it becomes difficult to say whether the ‘religion’ — or rather mythology, eschatology, and cult practice, which medieval sources refer to as forn siðr (‘ancient custom’) — changed over time. For obvious reasons, it is very difficult to identify a ‘pure’ Old Norse religion, uncorroded by Christianity since Scandinavia did not exist in a cultural vacuum.1 What we read in the handbooks is based almost entirely on Snorri Sturluson’s representation and interpretation in his Edda of the pre-Christian religion of Iceland, together with the ambiguous mythical and eschatological world we find represented in the Poetic Edda and in the filtered form Saxo Grammaticus presents in his Gesta Danorum. This stance is more or less presented without reflection in early scholarship, but the bias of the foundation is more readily acknowledged in more recent works.2 In the textual sources we find a considerable pantheon of gods and goddesses — Þórr, Óðinn, Freyr, Baldr, Loki, Njo3rðr, Týr, Heimdallr, Ullr, Bragi, Freyja, Frigg, Gefjon, Iðunn, et cetera — and euhemerized stories of how the gods acted and were characterized as individuals and as a collective. Since the sources are Old Icelandic (Saxo’s work appears to have been built on the same sources) one might assume that this religious world was purely Old 1 See the discussion in Gro Steinsland, Norrøn religion: Myter, riter, samfunn (Oslo: Pax, 2005).

  • The Nobility and the Manors
    South Sweden, it is possible to discuss the reasons why noble families Gradually abandoned their manors from the early-eiGhteenth century on- wards. The Nobility and the Manors Since the Middle AGes, the Swedish population was divided into four es- tates, all of which were represented in the parliament: the nobility, the clerGy, the burghers and the freehold farmers. From the Middle AGes and onwards, freehold farmers owned at least O0% of the land, which increased in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to around Q0%. / The nobility of Sweden has its origins in an act of -ST0, in which the Swedish king formal- ized a pre-existing relationship between the king, the landowning lords and the freehold farmers. Tax exemptions and the right to found tax-exempt manors or noble ‘seats’ ( sätesgårdar ) were promised to those who could pay for horses and armoured men-at-arms to serve in the cavalry. Q When Swe- den became a nation state in the sixteenth century, noble families began to serve as officers and civil servants in a more complex and better organized administration which had higher expectations for skills and education. In order to establish a more continental style of nobility, necessary for the expanding kinGdom, which desired to become a great power equal to those on the continent, two new titles were introduced in the -/Q0s: count ( greve ) and baron ( friherre ). The nobility was then divided into two; the titled no- bility (högadel ) consisting of counts and barons, and the untitled nobility (lågadel ). From this point noble status also became hereditary, meaning that all sons and daughters inherited their fathers’ titles.

  • Meyer's Accent Contours Revisited
    TMH-QPSR Vol. 44 – Fonetik 2002 Meyer’s accent contours revisited Olle Engstrand1 and Gunnar Nyström2 1Department of Linguistics, Stockholm University 2Institute for Dialectology, Onomastics and Folklore Research (SOFI), Uppsala Abstract Do E.A. Meyer’s tonal word accents contours from the Swedish dialects provide a reliable basis for quantitative analysis? Measurements made on acute and grave tone-peaks in a number of dialects spoken in the province of Dalarna suggested that the timing of grave tonal peaks tended to vary systematically from south-east to north-west. The former dialects had relatively late and the latter relatively early tone-peaks. This finding suggests that Meyer’s accent data may be sufficiently accurate to reflect systematic variation within broad dialect areas. Implications for the historical development of the Dalarna dialects are discussed. Introduction Several decades ago, E.A. Meyer compiled his pioneering survey of tonal word accent contours in 100 Swedish dialects (Meyer 1937, 1954). Pitch curves were automatically generated using a pitch meter that Meyer himself had invented. The original pitch curves are thus likely to be quite accurate. To enhance the dialect-specific tonal characteristics, the original contours were time-normalized, averaged and smoothed by Figure 1. Tonal contours representing the eye. These schematized contours were arranged Central Swedish dialects (Stockholm, upper by province and displayed on charts. panel) and the Dalarna dialects (Leksand, lower The Meyer contours have proved useful in panel). establishing accent-based dialect typologies In this paper, the question is raised whether the (Gårding 1977, Bruce & Gårding 1978, Öhman Gårding and Bruce scheme can be elaborated to 1967).

Janson • J. Wouters • M. Bonow • I. Svanberg • K. H. Olse´n Received: 17 January 2014 / Accepted: 11 August 2014 / Published online: 21 August 2014 Ó The Author(s) 2014. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Although once popular prior to the last century, the aquaculture of crucian carp Carassius carassius (L. 1758) in Sweden gradually fell from favour. This is the first genetic comparison of crucian carp from historic man-made ponds in the Scandinavian Peninsula. The aim was to identify old populations without admixture and to compare the relationship of pond populations from different provinces in Sweden. In total, nine microsatellite loci from 234 individuals from 20 locations in varied parts of Sweden were analysed. The genetic distances of crucian carp populations indicated that the populations in the southernmost province of Sweden, Scania, shared a common history. A pond population in the province Sma˚land also showed a common inheritance with this group. In the province Uppland, further north in Sweden, the population genetic distances suggested a much more complex history of crucian carp distributions in the ponds. The data showed that there are some ponds with potentially old populations without admixture, but also that several ponds might have been stocked with fish from many sources.

Bot. Fennici 39: 73–80. Chaenotheca trichialis and C. xyloxena have been characterized by differences in their morphology, anatomy and ecology. They are, however, often difficult to distinguish. In a molecular phylogeny based on ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 rDNA sequences the specimens of C. xyloxena but not those of C. trichialis formed a monophyletic group. To some extent the analysis also revealed regional groupings.

  • Swedish Forest-Edge Farmers and Wolf Recovery
    [Downloaded free from http://www.conservationandsociety.org on Thursday, February 04, 2010] Conservation and Society 7(2): 130-140, 2009 Article Social-Natural Landscape Reorganised: Swedish Forest-edge Farmers and Wolf Recovery Annelie Sjölander-Lindqvist Centre for Public Sector Research, University of Gothenburg, Box 720, 405 30 Göteborg, Sweden E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The politics and the underlying reasons behind the recovery of the Scandinavian wolf population are increasingly contested. According to official policy, wolves should be guaranteed a place in the Swedish natural world. However, the conflict over whether Sweden should host a wolf population sets views on biodiversity and sustainable development against the perspective that local traditions and livelihoods are threatened by the return of wolves. These diverging environmental visions can be seen as competing interests and understandings of nature and wildlife. The desire of the state and nature conservation organisations to implement measures to provide conditions fostering wolf survival are counterbalanced by local action groups and community residents struggling to maintain conditions for conserving summer pastures, opportunities for hunting with sporting dogs, and other recreational activities such as mushroom- and berry-picking. Not only are these activities considered to have high natural and cultural value, the European Union (EU) has stated that small-scale farming is important for maintaining the landscape and safeguarding the survival of values associated with ‘agri-environmental’ habitats. The conflict between the interest groups is essentially about the access to and use of environmental resources. Squeezed between policies safeguarding wolf populations, preventing cruelty to animals and implementing activities required by the EU agricultural programme, farmers in areas with resident wolf populations have come to take part in processes that may reinforce rural identity.

    MEDIA IMAGES We Call Them Vikings May 17 to November 11, 2014 Produced by The Swedish History Museum in Sweden and MuseumsPartner in Austria High-res images available on request from [email protected] Spearhead, Iron, silver. Runic inscriptions on the silver coated socket read ‘Rane owns this spear’ and ‘Botfus carved’. Weapons with runic inscriptions are rare, and this one is decorated with silver which makes it one of a kind. The ornamentation is an example of a particularly fine craftsmanship. Stor-Vede, Follingbo, Gotland, Sweden. SHM 15928 (FID 914435) Beads of bronze, glass and gold in a set of six rows. These beads of glass and precious metals are a magnificent example of a wealthy woman’s personal belongings. Gravefind, Stora och Lilla Ihre, Hellvi, Gotland, Sweden. SHM 20826:370 (FID 108059) Pendant, Thorshammer, silver with filigree ornamentation. This pendant has the shape of a Thor’s hammer, an object that could have been used in connection to burials and to cult activities. It is the only one of its kind and is finely crafted. Location of find is not known, Scania, Sweden. SHM 9822 (FID 106659) Key. Bronze. On the handle is a Christian motif, showing the crucifixion, above a small palmette. Keys are common in Viking Age Scandinavian material, but it is very rare indeed to have them adorned with such obvious Christian symbolism. Sweden. SHM 6819:535 (FID 364197) Pendant, silver and gilded. This figurine may represent Frigg, the most powerful of the Asynjurs or female gods. The details in the clothing give many clues to the way the clothes were used.
