Walking through the Anthropocene. Encountering materialisations of the geological epoch in an exhibition space
No full textThe Anthropocene has been mobilised as a conceptual framework for museums to engage with the global environmental crisis. This article examines the exhibition Welcome to the Anthropocene: The Earth in our Hands that was on display at the Deutsches Museum from 2014 to 2016. Proclaimed as the first largescale exhibition on the concept, the museum attempted to translate its underlying arguments into three-dimensional space. Viewing exhibitions as an assemblage of display technologies, objects and texts, the intention is to examine how the concept materialises in the exhibition space. The findings outline three different versions of the Anthropocene: understanding the Anthropocene as a history, experiencing the Anthropocene through spatial exploration and the concept as a tool to catch slippages. Locating three versions in a single exhibition reveals the complexity of the Anthropocene as a framework for museums and also highlights the possibility of addressing it in different ways simultaneously.The Anthropocene has been mobilised as a conceptual framework for museums to engage with the global environmental crisis.

Om å tre inn som en feil i samtalen: En drøfting av de demokratiske muligheter i å unndra seg skolens inkludering
No full textI denne artikkelen drøfter jeg hvordan det kan være utfordrende for elever å skulle gi et språklig uttrykk for en religiøs tro i de sivile offentlige samtaler i skolen og hvordan det i sammenheng med det kan tolkes som en demokratisk handling å trekke seg ut av samtaler i skolen. Jeg benytter meg i artikkelen av eksempel på troserfaringer hentet fra skjønnlitteratur og essays for å billedliggjøre noen av de utfordringer elever med en religiøs tro kan stå overfor i skolens offentlige samtaler hvis religiøse troserfaringer skal språkliggjøres.
Nøkkelord: Utdanning, demokrati, offentlige samtaler, motstand, religiøs troIn this article, I discuss how it can be challenging for students to articulate a religious faith in the civilian public conversations at school and how in this context it can be interpreted as a democratic act to withdraw from conversations in school. I use examples of religious faith experiences gained from fiction and essays to illustrate some of the challenges students with a religious faith may face in public conversations at school when their religious faith is to be articulated.
Keywords: Education, democracy, public conversations, resistance, religious fait

No full textI artikeln behandlas ordböcker ur ett genusperspektiv. I första hand disku-teras, utifrån befintlig genuskritisk forskning, innehållet i det enspråkiga verket Svensk ordbok utgiven av Svenska Akademien (SO, 2009). Vidare presen-teras resultaten av en undersökning som gäller användningen av substanti-ven tjej och kille i SO:s språkprov. Dessa resultat utgör underlag för resone-mang kring några av de förändringar som är aktuella inför nästa upplaga av ordboken, som är under utarbetande
Det umulige er mulig
No full textArtikkelen tar for seg spørsmålet om defektivitet i grammatiske mønstre er en absolutt egenskap i seg sjøl. Nærmere bestemt undersøker vi adjektiver som angivelig mangler nøytrumsform og adjektiver som angivelig er be-grensa til predikativ eller attributiv posisjon. Ved hjelp av data fra Leksiko-grafisk bokmålskorpus argumenterer vi for at det er mer fornuftig å forkla-re slike defekte mønstre som konvensjonelt uvanlige snarere enn gramma-tisk umulige
Jihadister som statsbyggere: IS versus Al-Qaida

En glemt skatt, Miranda Bødtkers tegninger af arkæologiske tekstiler
No full textOver many years, illustrator Miranda Bødtker (1896–1996) carried out drawings for botanists, zoologists and archaeologists at Bergen Museum, the University of Bergen. After her death, thousands of drawings were discovered in her estate. Among them were numerous unpublished drawings of archaeological textiles from five sites. Bødtker’s illustrations show that although several scholars have studied the textiles, none had seen them all. This applies in particular to textiles from two Viking Age burials, Grønhaug and Dale, both of which comprise remains of figured tapestries that are hardly mentioned in archaeological literature. Grønhaug, and a boat from Halsnøy also offer several types of textiles related to the maritime world. The paper presents Bødtker’s drawings and discusses how they compare with published descriptions of those textiles, with drawings of textiles from the Oseberg burial, and to what degree this form of documentation meets current scientific demands.
