  • Stockholm's Archipelago and Strindberg's
    Scandinavica Vol 52 No 2 2013 Stockholm’s Archipelago and Strindberg’s: Historical Reality and Modern Myth-Making Massimo Ciaravolo University of Florence Abstract The Stockholm Archipelago is ubiquitous in the prose, poetry, drama and non-fiction of August Strindberg. This article examines the interaction in Strindberg’s oeuvre between the city of Stockholm as civilized space and the wild space surrounding it, tracing the development of a literary myth of Eden in his work. Strindberg’s representations of the shifting relations between city and nature, it is argued, played (and still play) an important role in the cultural construction of mythologies of the loss of the wild space. The environments described in Strindberg’s texts are subject to changes, shifts and repetitions with variations, such that the archipelago in itself can be read as a mirror of the polyphony of points of view, the variability and the ambiguities we find in his oeuvre at large. Keywords August Strindberg, Stockholm Archipelago, city in literature, nature in literature, mythologies 52 Scandinavica Vol 52 No 2 2013 August Strindberg’s home town of Stockholm, together with its wilder counterpart, the archipelago or skärgård (literally meaning group, or circle, of islands and skerries), plays a large part in Strindberg’s literary universe as well as in his life. The archipelago is ubiquitous in his oeuvre; it occurs in prose as well as in poetry and in drama, and it characterizes both fiction, autobiography and non-fiction (essays, letters and diaries). It can sometimes provide the setting to whole works, but in a series of other works it can be included as one of the settings, or even be mentioned peripherally.

  • Stockholm Archipelago Raid NOTICE of RACE
    Stockholm Archipelago Raid 23rd to 26th of August 2018 NOTICE OF RACE Preliminary Introduction The Stockholm Archipelago Raid is a mix of sport, nature and adventure in the perfect F18-playground; the stunning Stockholm Archipelago. The archipelago consists of 36.000 rocks, skerries and islands and offers spectacular scenery and limitless possibilities for exceptional courses between the Check Points (CP’s) on islands, buoys, light houses and beaches. Each day the fleet typically sails between 50 and 100 NM depending on the winds. It is tight, intensive racing between CP’s during daytime, sometimes with an early start. After the race there is often time for a sauna and a beer before dinner. Since all sailors eat, live and share an adventure together for a couple of intensive days, the raid is a very social event, even if the competition is also present during races. To be able to host more teams and to keep participation costs as low as possible the teams can choose whether they want to bring a tent and sleeping bags or, at an extra cost, sleep in real beds with sheets. All meals are included and each evening after the race day there is a possibility to have a sauna before having dinner together in large tents or restaurants. Raids has been organized by the Swedish F18 Association under different names since 2010, for example Raid Revenge. Before that, from 2001 to 2009, Atlant Ocean racing organized the Archipelago Raid, an extreme race from Stockholm to Finland and back. Many sailors from all over the world has participated since 2001.

  • Local Plant Species Diversity in Coastal Grasslands in the Stockholm Archipelago
    Department of Physical Geography Local plant species diversity in coastal grasslands in the Stockholm archipelago The effect of isostatic land-uplift, different management and future sea level rise Cecilia Lindén Master’s thesis NKA 198 Physical Geography and Quaternary Geology, 45 Credits 2017 Preface This Master’s thesis is Cecilia Lindén’s degree project in Physical Geography and Quaternary Geology at the Department of Physical Geography, Stockholm University. The Master’s thesis comprises 45 credits (one and a half term of full-time studies). Supervisors have been Sara Cousins and Adam Kimberley at the Department of Physical Geography, Stockholm University. Examiner has been Regina Lindborg at the Department of Physical Geography, Stockholm University. The author is responsible for the contents of this thesis. Stockholm, 11 December 2017 Steffen Holzkämper Director of studies Abstract Semi-natural grasslands with traditional management are known to be very species-rich, with many plant species strongly associated with the habitat. The last century’s decline of semi-natural grasslands, as a result of land use change and abandonment, has made the remaining semi-natural grassland a high concern for conservation. Since management can be costly and the available resources often are limited, it is important to use the most beneficial management method for preserving and enhancing the biodiversity. One semi-natural grassland type of certain interest around the Baltic region are coastal grasslands. In this study, I investigated vascular plant species occurrence in ten managed coastal grasslands located in the Stockholm archipelago. The effect of recent land-uplift and future sea level rise on the ten coastal grasslands were analyzed as well.

  • More Maritime Safety for the Baltic Sea
    More Maritime Safety for the Baltic Sea WWF Baltic Team 2003 Anita Mäkinen Jochen Lamp Åsa Andersson “WWF´s demand: More Maritime Safety for the Baltic Sea – Particularly Sensitive Sea Area (PSSA) status with additional proctective measures needed Summary The scenario of a severe oil accident in the Baltic Sea is omnipresent. In case of a serious oiltanker accident all coasts of the Baltic Sea would be threatened, economic activities possibly spoiled for years and its precious nature even irreversibly damaged. The Baltic Sea is a unique and extremely sensitive ecosystem. Large number of islands, routes that are difficult to navigate, slow water exchange and long annual periods of icecover render this sea especially sensitive. At the same time the Baltic Sea has some of the most dense maritime traffic in the world. During the recent decades the traffic in the Baltic area has not only increased, but the nature of the traffic has also changed rapidly. One important change is the the increase of oil transportation due to new oil terminals in Russia. But not only the number of tankers has increased but also their size has grown. The risk of an oil accident in the Gulf of Finland will increase fourfold with the increase in oil transport in the Gulf of Finland from the 22 million tons annually in 1995 to 90 million tons in 2005. At the same time, the cruises between Helsinki and Tallinn have increased tremendously, and this route is crossing the main routes of vessels transporting hazardous substances. WWF and its Baltic partners see that the whole Baltic Sea needs the official status of a “Particularly Sensitive Sea Area” (PSSA) to tackle the environmental effects and threats associated with increasing maritime traffic, especially oil shipping, in the area.

  • Stockholm Archipelago: Sailing Swe- Den’S Pocket Wilderness
    Stockholm archipelago: Sailing Swe- den’s pocket wilderness Chris Beeson September 25, 2015 0shares After just a couple of days cruising in the extensive Stockholm archipelago, Chris Beeson discovers why Swedish sailors rarely make it out of the Baltic The 30,000 islands that make up Stockholm’s Skärgård offer a lifetime of exploration – all within a daysail of the city centre Credit: Stefan Almers/Studio Tranan TAGS:Cruising guidesStockholm archipelago Stockholm archipelago: Sailing Sweden’s pocket wilderness I’ve been lucky enough to sail in many places around the world and it has occurred to me that, among the many nations represented afloat, Sweden is seldom present. How can this be? Historically they are bold seafarers and fearless adventurers. Can the North Sea be such an insuperable barrier for these marauding mariners? The answer is no. It is simply that Sweden’s coastal waters, and their super-abundant islands, are so endlessly beguiling that there is simply no need for the Swede to sail anywhere else. Everything the adventurous cruiser could possibly want is scattered just a few miles off the Swedish coast. Our three-day route around Stockholms Skärgård The Stockholms Skärgård, or Stockholm archipelago, for instance, is a delicious chocolate box of 30,000 alluring granite islands, each with its own character, history and wildlife. It forms the central section of a larger archipelago of over 100,000 islands – the world’s lar- gest. Summer temperatures can hit the mid-to-high 20s Celsius and the weather is familiar, being dictated, like our own, by the Azores High.

  • Documentary Data Provide Evidence of Stockholm Average Winter to Spring Temperatures in the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries L
    The Holocene 18,2 (2008) pp. 333–343 Documentary data provide evidence of Stockholm average winter to spring temperatures in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries L. Leijonhufvud,1* R. Wilson2 and A. Moberg3 ( 1Department of Economic History, Stockholm University, S-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden; 2School of Geography & Geosciences, University of St Andrews, St Andrews KY16 9AL, UK; 3Department of Physical Geography and Quaternary Geology, Stockholm University, S-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden) Received 10 April 2007; revised manuscript accepted 19 October 2007 Abstract: Swedish archives provide several types of documentary sources relating to port activities in Stockholm for the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. These documentary sources reflect sea ice conditions in the harbour inlet and correlate well with late-winter to early-spring temperatures. Instrumental measurements of temperature in Stockholm began in 1756, which allow for careful empirical assessment of the proxies from that date. After combining proxy series from several sources to derive a mean time series, calibration and ver- ification trials are made and a preliminary January–April temperature reconstruction is developed from 1692 to 1892. This series, which explains 67% of the temperature variance, is further verified against independent tem- perature data from Uppsala, which go back to 1722. This additional verification of the reconstruction also assesses the quality of the early instrumental data from Uppsala, which has potential homogeneity problems before 1739 as a result of the thermometer being located indoors. Our analysis suggests that before this date, the instrumental data may be ‘too warm’ and need correction. Together, the documentary and instrumental data identify the post-1990 period as the warmest in three centuries.
