A nagy Káder : egy pleni feljegyzései a forradalmi Oroszországból / Munk Arthur
No full textThe first name of the author of the large cadre is not revealed when reading the book - indeed, neither is his last name, since throughout the work he is called star doctor or comrade doctor, the latter, however, can be found out by the attentive reader on his own. Munk, who was born in Subotica in 1886 into a non-religious Jewish family, before the war served as a ship's doctor until the war's outbreak, and later as a medical officer of an infantry regiment. He was taken prisoner of war on July 8, 1917. His book tells the story of his years in captivity, also in his camps, sometimes fleeing from the whites, sometimes from the reds. His novel is a strange symptom [?], its author was forced to constantly adapt to the reigning power for the sake of self-preservation. After four years, from the grip of the Reds, he returned home - with his Russian wife and young son on a German steamer, now to Szabadka in Yugoslavia. After returning home, Munk continued to practice, from the 1920s he ran the Medical Matters section of the Bácsmegyei Napló, in addition to his front novel about the hinterland published: this novel was published in 1933 under the title Hinterland.

Jens Munk (1579-1628)
No full text... In 1618 the Danish King Christian IV ordered Munk to ready a major expedition to embark for East India via Cape Horn. Tirelessly, Munk organized the ships, the men, the provisions, and the thousand details involved in such an undertaking. To his astonishment, however, the command was not to be his; it fell to a man of suitable nobility, Ove Giedde. ... The future was bleak, but Munk was not easily discouraged. He approached the king with a plan to launch another expedition to the far east, this one to proceed through the assumed northwest passage. ... Munk chose 61 men and two vessels, one the heavy mothership the Unicorn (Enhjoringen) and the other the light reconnaissance vessel the Lamprey (Lampren). ... They crossed the Atlantic and entered Frobisher Bay by mistake, and when they finally found their way into Hudson Strait, they accidentally sailed deep into Ungava Bay before they got back on the true course. By the time they reached Hudson Bay on September 4th, signs of scurvy were already present in the men. A savage storm forced Munk to make a spectacular entry with the Unicorn into a protected bay on the west coast at the site of present-day Churchill. The Lamprey soon followed, and the place was named Nova Dania. A wintering was clearly in store for the expedition, and little time was wasted in getting the ships to safe location. ... Aware of the dangers of scurvy, Munk encouraged his men to eat berries and roots as long as possible, and the ravages of the dread disease were postponed for a while. Nevertheless, on the 21st of November one man died of scurvy, and another followed soon after. ... On July 16 Munk began another, perhaps the greatest, epic journey. One can only imagine the next 67 days in ice-infested and storm-swept seas, across Hudson Bay, through the Strait, round the southern tip of Greenland, and forever eastward. The master mariner got the ship through it all, and on the 20th of September he spotted the distant mountains on the west coast of Norway. No hero\u27s welcome awaited Jens Munk. One of his men was involved in a tavern brawl, and as captain responsible for his men, Munk was jailed; the revenge of the nobility was never far away. Apparently, the king was in no hurry to see Munk released, but he finally ordered his release after three months\u27 imprisonment. ... The expansionist king was not doing well, battles were being lost, and at the battle and defeat at Kiel in the spring of 1628, Jens Munk seems to have been wounded. He returned to Copenhagen, where his new young wife cared for him until his death a few months later. ..
The Country Mouse and the City Mouse and Other Stories
No full textThis is, I believe, a reproduction of the Platt and Munk original I have dated to 1939? It is in good condition. This reprint seems to have paper of a different quality. As I write there, this is a selection of three fables (TMCM, DS, and The Rooster and the Fox) presented in The Road in Storyland (1932). Good runs of the lovely colored illustrations; several of the illustrations are rendered only in black-and-white. One illustration is added for The Rooster and the Fox.Watty Piper N
Det fundne og det tabte: To nationer under Gud: Kaj Munk og det sønderjyske spørgsmål
No full textThe found and the Lost: Two Nations under God. Kaj Munk and the question of Southern Jutland. The aim of this article is to present and discuss the view of Danish pastor, playwright, author, and resistance martyr Kaj Munk (1898-1944) regarding the reunion of Denmark and Southern Jutland in 1920. In Munk’s view Southern Jutland and the border to Germany is of central importance to the Danish national identity. The population remained culturally Danish under German rule. However, the reunion and the close relationship with Germany was challenged during the rise of the Third Reich, and eventually the occupation of Denmark. Kaj Munk’s nuanced reflections on the cohabitation of neighbouring countries reject demonization and nationalistic superiority thinking. In Munk’s understanding “fronts” and “bridges” are necessary in international cooperation. The front to protect intrinsic values and avoid appropriation, the bridges to bridge divides between the two nations under God. Munk is an example of a peaceful, acknowledging approach to international cohabitation, though with a strong sense of cultural consistency
Kaj Munk - Manden og værket
No full textKaj Munk er en central person i det kulturelle og politiske landskab i Danmark i 1930’erne og frem til mordet i januar 1944.Få har som han delt danskerne i det 20. århundrede, både i sin levetid og efter sin død. Eksempelvis blev han på den ene side kaldt ’charlatan’ af Christian Reventlow, og på den anden side skrev Tom Kristensen: Midt i en Tid, hvor næsten alle danske Kunstnere var afkristnede, opstod der en Præst med digteriske Evner, der nærmede sig det geniale, og erobrede den danske Skueplads med en Anakronismes Voldsomhed. Han virkede splittet, for han var baade kristen og moderne og diktatorvenlig og national, ligesom han både var Præst og Journalist og Digter […].I dag tænker vi ofte kun på Kaj Munk som dramatiker og modstandsikon, men han var også meget andet: Lyriker, præst, samfundsdebattør m.m.Denne bog forsøger at tegne et bredt billede af Kaj Munk, og gør det dels ved korte introduktioner og dels ved Kaj Munks egne tekster. Introduktionerne er skrevet af forskere, der har arbejdet med Kaj Munk. Målet er at give læseren indblik i Kaj Munks værk og dermed indirekte også i hans samtid
