Consul Jonas Lied & Russia

Oslo Academic Press

sidottu
This interdisciplinary anthology with five Russian and six Norwegian contributors discusses the forgotten Norwegian businessman Jonas Marius Lied's adventurous life and activities in Russia from 1910 to 1931. With his great project 'The Siberian Company', founded in Christiania in 1912, Lied opened an arctic sea route between Western Europe and Asiatic Russia, via the Kara Sea and the great Siberian rivers Yenisei and Ob. Success was secured when Fridtjof Nansen in 1913 accepted to join Lied's second expedition from Tromso to Siberia, but in 1918 the Company was nationalised by the Bolsheviks. In this title, a range of leading specialists discusses Jonas Lied's pioneer activities as industrialist and Consul of Norway in Siberia before the October revolution and the importance of his unique collection of art from Pushkin's time, acquired in Moscow in the 1920ies and preserved quite anonymously on his ancestral farm Solsnes in Romsdal.
Carl Jonas Love Almqvist kalender : 366 citat i urval av Solveig Faringer
»Blott Sverige svenska krusbär har« är kanske det mest kända citatet av vår store svenske författare, dramatiker, journalist och tonsättare Carl Jonas Love Almqvist (17931866).Krusbär, de kan vara stora eller små, söta eller sura, gulgröna och blanka och nästan genomskinliga, eller röda och luddiga och en del kan ha små hårda kärnor i sig. Så varierade är också de 366 citaten i Almqvistkalendern. Ett utvalt för årets alla dagar av Solveig Faringer. Det är en salig blandning av högt och lågt, roligt och uppmanande, och också lite tossigt här och var när diktaren är på rimhumör i sin ensamhet under många år i Amerika på flykt undan det svenska rättsväsendet.Solveig Faringer är en författande sångerska och skådespelerska. Intresset för Almqvists verk har följt henne sedan tidig ungdom och är ett livsintresse som slingrat som en röd tråd genom hennes liv och karriär.

Om innehållet För att förstå en specifik folkkonst, som den i Hälsingland, måste man som forskare gå hela vägen tillbaka till källorna och granska de mänskliga realiteterna i dess konkreta historiska sammanhang. Maj-Britt Andersson har gjort detta, uppsökt Jonas Hertmans (1755 1804) alla bevarade alster där de finns bevarade, helst utan "förbättringar". Här återfinns Hertmans konstverk/målningar i Häl-singegårdarnas rumskonst. Den enda byggnad som idag finns kvar där alla rum har vägg- och takdekor bevarad efter Jonas Hertman är Bollnässtugan på Skansen i Stockholm. Där målade, signerade och daterade Hertman dem 1786. Här kan man studera hans beundransvärda teknik och förmåga med de motiv han använde och återkom till. Hertman var samtidigt målare, urmakare och hemmans ägare. I denna vackert illustrerade volym tecknar författaren målaren Jonas Hertmans livsgärning ingå-ende och med öppen blick. Det blir en egenartad och nydanande rumsgestaltning med en repertoar av motiv från stilkonsten, målarens eget ärende och den speciella karisma som strålade ut från de skapade miljöerna.Maj-Britt Andersson är konsthistoriker och författare med stora kunskaper hon tidigare delat med sig av i olika texter i klassiska böcker som Husbibeln. Möten med gårdar (2004), Hälsingeboken (2011), Allmogemålaren Anders Ädel (2000), Till gårdens prydnad. Om hälsingegårdars utsmyckning (2022).___"Texten håller god akademisk nivå och upplevs som mycket väl genomarbetad och välskriven." Maria Bennmalm, BTJ. Helhetsbetyg: 4
Edith Stein and Regina Jonas

Edith Stein and Regina Jonas

First published 2013. This ground-breaking book examines the lives of two extraordinary, religious women. Both Edith Stein and Regina Jonas were German Jewish women who demonstrated 'deviant' religious desires as they pursued their spiritual paths to serve their communities during the Holocaust. Both were religious visionaries viewed as iconoclasts in their own times. Stein, the first woman to receive a doctorate in philosophy from Husserl, the founder of phenomenology, claimed her Jewish identity while she was still a cloistered Carmelite nun. Jonas, the first woman rabbi in Jewish history, served as a rabbi in Berlin and Theresienstadt concentration camp. A study of a contemplative and a rabbi, the book ranges across many spiritual and theological questions, not least it offers a remarkable exploration of the theology of spiritual resistance. For Stein, this meant redemption and the transmutation of suffering on the cross; for Jonas, acts of compassion bring the face of God into our presence.
Splendid Solution: Jonas Salk and the Conquest of Polio
The compelling true story of Dr. Jonas Salk's quest to develop a vaccine for polio.In 1916, the United States was hit with one of the worst polio epidemics in history. The disease was a terrifying enigma: striking out of nowhere, it afflicted tens of thousands of children and left them--literally overnight--paralyzed. Others it simply killed. At the same time, a child named Jonas Salk was born.... When Franklin Delano Roosevelt was diagnosed with polio shortly before assuming the Presidency, Salk was given an impetus to study this deadly illness. After assisting in the creation of an influenza vaccine, Salk took up the challenge. His progress in combating the virus was hindered by the politics of medicine and by a rival researcher determined to discredit his proposed solution. But Salk's perseverance made history--and for close to seventy years his vaccine has saved countless lives, bringing humanity close to eradicating polio throughout the world. Splendid Solution chronicles Dr. Salk's race against time to achieve an unparalleled breakthrough that made him a cultural hero and icon of modern medicine.

Jonas is fifteen when his family is killed during an errant U.S. military operation in an unnamed Middle Eastern country. An international relief organization sends Jonas to America, where he struggles to assimilate—adapting to his foster family, high school, a first love. Jonas meets Rose Henderson, the mother of the U.S. soldier responsible for saving his life. Christopher Henderson disappeared after the raid that destroyed Jonas’s village, and Rose yearns to know the truth. Gradually, a shocking and painful secret emerges. In spare, evocative prose, debut novelist Stephen Dau crafts a virtuosic novel about memory, the terrible choices made during war, and what happens when foreign disaster arrives at our own doorstep.
The Rise of Jonas Olsen

The Rise of Jonas Olsen

Johannes Wist

University of Minnesota Press

The road to riches for the hero of this sweeping historical novel ends up being rockier than he initially expects. Norwegian immigrant Jonas Olsen arrives in late nineteenth-century Minneapolis with little money and less English. He quickly learns to reinvent himself—from laboring in sewer construction to building a successful dry goods business, from losing everything in a banking collapse to settling the Red River Valley. While an eminently likable character, Jonas can also be ruthless in his ambition to find success in America. The Rise of Jonas Olsen is at once an immigrant novel, business novel, political novel, and a western, offering a rich and panoramic view of Scandinavian immigrant life in the Upper Midwest. Wist combines realism and satire to depict the role Norwegian Americans played in the economic, political, and cultural life of the Upper Midwest. Originally published serially in the Norwegian-language newspaper the Decorah Posten in the 1920s, The Rise of Jonas Olsen illustrates an immigrant's struggle to preserve his identity and heritage while striving to become fully accepted as an American. Johannes B. Wist (1864–1923) was a journalist and editor of the Decorah Posten from 1900 to 1923. Orm Øverland is professor of American literature at the University of Bergen, Norway, and the author of The Western Home: A Literary History of Norwegian America and Immigrant Minds, American Identities: Making the United States Home, 1870-1930. Todd W. Nichol is editor of the Norwegian-American Historical Association publication program. Published in cooperation with the Norwegian-American Historical Association.
The Stone Killer: A Jonas Black Novel

But, that civilized mask hides a dark killer waiting to unleash evil on someone. Years ago, one such monster beat, raped and killed his girlfriend, Kelly Burton, in Texas. Jonas is haunted by dreams of a shadowy figure from her unsolved murder. Now, such a madman prowls the streets of Colorado Springs, Colorado. Morgan Jansen finds it difficult to love her identical twin sister, Marilyn Heddrix, especially after she sleeps with her rotten husband, Andrew. But, their psychic bond keeps them aware of the each other's presences. When Morgan awakens early one morning in horrible pain, she knows Marilyn is in trouble. After Lieutenant Black and Sergeant Esperanza Ortiz, appear on her doorstep, Morgan learns her sister has been murdered. Now, she would forgive even her sister's betrayal to have her back. But dead is dead, or is it? Karma demands its due. Marilyn must pay for her sins. She returns as a ghost to offer snippets of information about her killer. But, she can't identify him. As the madman strikes again, Morgan tries to explain Marilyn's message. The Lieutenant looks at her as if she's nuts. Her efforts to describe the strange bond between twins is impossible. He doesn't believe her or their unusual abilities. Jonas Black thinks Morgan Jansen is a little crazy with her claim of a psychic connection to her twin. But, he would like to believe her. Is it because of the attraction he feels? She does take his breath away. Five murders later, one even a cop, the killer sets his sights on Morgan. It's a race to find the madman before she becomes his next victim and Jonas Black loses another woman he loves to murder.
