Carl Jonas Love Almqvists slottskrönika och det indirekta skrivsättet är ämnet för denna studie. Slottskrönikan omfattar romanerna Jaktslottet (1833), Hinden (1833) och Baron Julius K*. Ur Fröken Eleonoras reseminnen (1835), som alla ingår i Almqvists stora samlingsverk Törnrosens bok. I ramberättelsen Jaktslottet presenteras vi för medlemmarna i Jaktslottskretsen, slottsherren Hugo Löwenstjerna, huvudberättaren Richard Furumo och de andra figurerna, som brukar samlas på Jaktslottet på kvällarna och berätta historier för varandra. Almqvist lämnar mycket outsagt i texten, ett indirekt skrivsätt, vilket resulterar i gåtor och andra problem för läsaren. Det är dessa tolkningsproblem som står i centrum för denna undersökning. I första kapitlet analyseras bördsmotivet, i andra kapitlet spökmotivet, i tredje och fjärde kapitlet självreflexionen och i femte kapitlet slottskrönikans intertextuella bakgrund.
L'amour n'a jamais manqu de po tes pour le c l brer. Dans ce recueil, vous trouverez mes propres po mes. c'est une flamme amoureuse qui danse au rythme de mes mots. Po mes doux, romantiques, passionn s, d chirants... Po mes d'amour, m lodie du coeur qui donnent la fi vre et m'emportent. Hymnes, rhapsodies ou complaintes. C'est parfois l' closion d'un amour, D'autres fois son pilogue, ou bien m me son absence.

Founder of a beauty empire, Madam C. J. Walker was celebrated as America's first self-made female millionaire in the early 1900s. Known as a leading African American entrepreneur, Walker was also devoted to an activist philanthropy aimed at empowering African Americans and challenging the injustices inflicted by Jim Crow. Tyrone McKinley Freeman's biography highlights how giving shaped Walker's life before and after she became wealthy. Poor and widowed when she arrived in St. Louis in her twenties, Walker found mentorship among black churchgoers and working black women. Her adoption of faith, racial uplift, education, and self-help soon informed her dedication to assisting black women's entrepreneurship, financial independence, and activism. Walker embedded her philanthropy in how she grew her business, forged alliances with groups like the National Association of Colored Women, funded schools and social service agencies led by African American women, and enlisted her company's sales agents in local charity and advocacy work. Illuminating and dramatic, Madam C. J. Walker’s Gospel of Giving broadens our understanding of black women’s charitable giving and establishes Walker as a foremother of African American philanthropy.
