    No full text
    This chapter explores the use of heritage and history in the popular romance series The Legend of the Ice People (1982–1989) by Norwegian-Swedish author Margit Sandemo. The epos is the 47-volume multigenerational saga of a family. The series is here defined as a story world in which Sandemo is the creator, but fans are actively involved in collective negotiations. The use of the past within the series offers interpretations to readers, who are putting the old-fashion modes into up-to-date, concurrent, and contemporary understandings of morality by emerging from the historical past within the series.

    "Jag lever i tre världar" - Margit Sandemos visioner i ljuset av religionspsykologisk mystikteori

    The topic of this essay is visions and how they can be viewed in the scientific study of mysticism. A case study of the life and mystical visions of Swedish-Norwegian author Margit Sandemo is conducted. The method used is interview as well as textual studies. The material thus consists of both several autobiographies and the transcribed interview with Sandemo. Through comparisons and rereading of the different texts a short biography is constructed focusing on important events and experiences, particularly visions, in the life of Sandemo. Based mainly on the theories and concepts of Antoon Geels and Mark Freeman the visions of Margit Sandemo are analyzed and discussed. The purpose is to try to understand the visions and decide which of them are to be regarded as mystical experiences. Applied to the material the theories often seem to be in accord, but they provide different levels of understanding. Depending on the theory used different visions may or may not appear as mystical experiences. The viewpoint, particularly of W.T. Stace, that visions are not to be regarded as mystical experiences is also discussed.Uppsatsens ämne är visioner och hur de kan betraktas inom ett vetenskapligt mystikstudium. Empirin utgörs av författaren Margit Sandemos liv och upplevelser, vilka tecknas utifrån en genomförd intervju och olika självbiografiska böcker. Materialet utvinns alltså genom intervjumetod och textläsning. Genom jämförelser och omläsning av texter och intervjumaterial växer en kort biografi fram med särskild fokus på viktiga händelser och upplevelser, däribland visioner, i Sandemos liv. Med utgångspunkt i teorier och begrepp hämtade främst från Antoon Geels och Mark Freeman analyseras och diskuteras Sandemos visioner och deras mystika status. Syftet är att försöka förstå visionerna och bestämma vilka av dem som kan betraktas som mystika upplevelser. Teorierna är delvis i harmoni, men bjuder olika möjligheter till förståelse, och divergerar även något vid bestämmandet av mystika aspekter hos visionerna. Även synsättet att visioner ej utgör mystika upplevelser berörs, huvudsakligen i anslutning till W.T. Staces uppfattning om mystik

    Ironic Narrative Agency as a Method of Coping with Trauma in the Diary-Memoir of Margit K., a Female Holocaust Survivor

    No full text
    This paper analyzes the rhetoric of a manuscript written in Budapest immediately after the Holocaust to record the personal experiences of the author, Margit K. I examine the text in terms of the role of writing and narration in processing trauma and how these appear in the narrative. In her memoirs, Margit K. had imbued her personal history of persecution with meanings that facilitated their integration into her life history and her self-definition. She chose to narrate her tragic past using euphemistic, mitigating, or ironic language and constructed her stories to have positive outcomes while attempting to write as little of the pain and tragedy of her persecution as possible. The euphemizing narrative methods used in the memoirs disappear entirely in the diary and the themes discussed in the diary are also different, which shows the advantages of constructing a desired past within the genre of the memoirs in contrast to the more strictly defined genre of diary-writing

    Descriptive data of posters and storage of descriptive data in XML schema

    Az első elektronikus könyvtárak megjelenése óta egyre több olyan elektronikus gyűjtemény jön létre a világhálón, ahol már nem csak a könyveknek vagy a folyóiratoknak van komoly szerepe. Előtérbe kerültek az olyan dokumentumok, amelyek a különböző közgyűjteményekben sem igazán kapnak önállóságot. Ide tartoznak a plakátok is. A digitalizált plakátokból kialakított gyűjtemények működ(tet)éséhez nélkülözhetetlen a metaadatok használata, mert csak ezek segítségével valósulhat meg a digitális dokumentumok keresése. A problémát az jelenti, hogy a formai feltárást magára vállaló könyvtárak eltérő metaadat elemkészlettel dolgoznak. Természetesen a legfontosabb adatok, mint cím, szerzőség, megjelenés, terjedelem felvételre kerülnek, de a plakátokra jellemző adatok megjelenítését csak kevés könyvtár tudja felvállalni. Márpedig a könyvtári dokumentumok feldolgozása országtól, nyelvtől, könyvtártípustól független irányelveken kell alapuljon. A könyvtári dokumentumok többségénél ilyen egységesen alkalmazható irányelveket az IFLA ISBD programja biztosítja, azonban a plakátok bibliográfiai leírását szabályzó irányelvek még hiányoznak. Ennek megfelelően először meghatározásra kerültek a nyomtatott grafikai plakátok leírásához és azonosításához szükséges adatelemek, a leírás adatelemeinek a sorrendje és a leírás kötelező jeleinek rendszere. Azaz az ISBD szabványok alapján meghatározásra kerültek a nyomtatott plakátok bibliográfiai leírásánál alkalmazandó alapelvek. Következő lépésben a digitalizált plakátok leírójegyeit kerültek meghatározásra. Mivel a digitalizált plakátok rögzítés módja eltér a nyomtatott plakátokétól, ezért újabb jellemvonások jelennek meg. Ilyen jellemvonás lehet a digitális kép létrehozásánál használt technika, a kép megjelenítéséhez szükséges működési követelmények, a digitális kép fájl jellemzői, stb. Utolsó lépésben pedig a meghatározott adatok elektronikus környezetben történő tárolását vizsgáltam. Ennek megfelelően bemutatásra kerül a saját fejlesztésű, XML alapú PoMeDS (Poster Metadata Description Schema), amely az általam meghatározott, a (nyomtatott és digitalizált) plakátok formai feltárását segítő adatelemekkel dolgozik.Since the first appearance of electronic libraries more and more electronic collections emerged in the World Wide Web, where not only books or journals have an important role. Such documents came into prominence that did not have independency, not even in public collections. Posters also belong to this group. It is definitely true for digitized poster collections that the use of metadata is essential for their operation as with the help of metadata electronic documents can be retrievable. The problem arises from the fact that libraries taking on cataloguing apply a different set of metadata elements. Of course the most significant bibliographic data such as title, author, publication, number of pages are recorded, but the presentation of data which are typical of posters is undertaken only by a few libraries. However the processing of library documents should be based on principles which are independant of country, language and library type. Concerning great part of library documents the IFLA ISBD program provides consistent principles, on the contrary the principles regulating the bibliographic description of posters are still missing. Corresponding to this I determined the data elements which are necessary for the bibliographic description and identification of printed posters, the order of data elements and the punctuation. Thus applicable principles of bibliographic description of printed posters have been determined based on the ISBD rules. Bibliographic data of digitized posters were decided at the following step. Since mode of recording of digitized posters is different from that of printed posters, therefore new data elements came to the front. Such data elements can be system requirements needed for displaying an image, file characteristics of digitized image, technique used for creating the digitized image, etc. Finally I analysed the storage of the determined data elements in computer-based systems. Corresponding to this the Poster Metadata Description Schema (PoMeDS) will be presented that we have developed. It is an XML-based schema working with the metadata elements of (printed and digitized) posters determined by us.N

    ArticleSaabunud / Received 07.01.2019 ; Aktsepteeritud / Accepted 12.03.2019 ; Avaldatud veebis / Published online 05.04.2019 ; Vastutav autor / Corresponding author: Margit Olle e-mail: [email protected] microorganisms (EM) comprise a mixture of live natural cultures of microorganisms isolated from fertile soils that are used to improve crop production. The purpose was to assess the influence of EM on the growth and nutrient content of leaf celery transplants. Two treatments were compared: 1) EM treatment comprised of seed soaking in EM 1:500 solution, sowing in EM treated peat and watering the plants weekly with EM solution. 2) Control treatment included similar treatments with water. Leaf celery transplants grown with EM were significantly shorter and had thicker stems than those grown without EM. The contents of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and calcium increased in transplants grown with EM compared to those grown without EM. The contents of nitrates and magnesium did not show statistically significant differences. Conclusion: EM improves the growth and increases nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and calcium contents of leaf celery transplants

    Saabunud / Received 17.03.2020 ; Aktsepteeritud / Accepted 25.05.2020 ; Avaldatud veebis / Published online 26.05.2020 ; Vastutav autor / Corresponding author: Margit Olle e-mail: [email protected] microorganisms' bokashi fermentation is proposed to upcycle food waste to novel feed supplements, and to (partially) replace traditional composting of food waste (and secondary residues from industrial processes) to facilitate both plant production and soil quality as well as to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The purpose was to assess the influence of bokashi tea treatment on the growth of tomato transplants. There were two treatments: one with bokashi tea and second without bokashi tea (control). Tomato transplants treated with bokashi tea tended to be higher than those in control; while the results were not significantly different. The number of leaves of tomato transplants treated with bokashi tea was not significantly different. The stem diameter of tomato transplants was 13% greater (P = 0.04) in bokashi tea treated plants than in control. Conclusion: Bokashi tea improves the growth of tomato transplants by increasing stem diameter and is allowing for plants to take up more nutrients
