Description:
St. Paul, MN 2009. Near the end of her life, Mina Anderson wrote a lively, intimate memoir, a piece so interesting and informative that renowned Swedish novelist Vilhelm Moberg used it to shape the central female character of his beloved emigrant novels. But Moberg’s archetypical Swedish settler “Kristina” is lonely and depressed, constantly yearning for her homeland.Mina’s story was quiet different.Shocasing this previously untranslated memoir, I Go To America traces Mina’s trip across the Atlantic to Wisconsin and then to the Twin Cities, where she worked as a domestic servant. It explores her move to rural Mille Lacs County, where she and her husband worked a farm, raised seven children, and contributed widely to rural Swedish community life through her poetry, fiction, and letters to Swedish American newspapers., English, Year2009, Illust.

Description:
Sweden 1993. An impressive, voluminous book devoted to Nordic women writers and their views of home in either Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, or Iceland. Even if each Nordic country has had its own historic evolution, a fundamental unity, or a “Nordic identity,” is part of most Nordic people’s consciousness. Many female authors have felt isolated within their own countries, but have discovered alliances with fellow female writers throughout the greater Scandinavia. In this collection of writing, certain motifs, themes, and aesthetic patterns come to light which, together, comprise this unique Nordic style. Chapters include: literary sagas, songs to Virgin Mary, witchcraft confessions, biographies of religious figures, and writings of famous Nordic women, such as Charlotta Dorothea Biehl, Queen Christina of Denmark, Sophia Elisabeth Brenner, and many more. , Swedish, Year1993, Illust.

Description:
London 2020. Iceland is an island of multiple identities, in constant flux, just like its unruly volcanic ground. As much shaped by storytelling as it is by tectonic activity, Iceland's literary heritage is one of Europe's richest--and most ancient. Its stories have been passed down through the generations: told and retold by sheep farmers, psalm-writers, travelling reverends, independence fighters, scholars and hedonists. From the captivating Norse myths, which continue to inspire contemporary authors such as A.S. Byatt, to gripping Scandinavian crime fiction and Game of Thrones, via Jules Verne and J.R.R Tolkien, W.H. Auden and Seamus Heaney, Iceland's influence has spread far beyond its frozen shores. Peopled by Norse maidens and witches, elves and outlaws and taking the reader and traveller from Reykjavik and the Bay of Smokes to the remote Westfjords and desolate highlands, this is an enthralling portrait of the Land of Ice and Fire. , English, Year2020, Illust.

This dictionary is based on the spoken rather than the written word and attempts to give as much information as possible in a volume that, although almost 200 pages long, (like it’s companion volume # 2309), is near the size of the palm of your hand. It states the gender of all Icelandic nouns, and English words are supplied in brackets to make clearer the meaning of the Icelandic glosses. Verbs and nouns are regularly listed, English plurals are given, and there is a short list of irregular English verbs at the end of the book. Two dictionaries in one, this text translates from English to Icelandic, or from Icelandic to English. Over 5,000 entries in a concise and easy to use format., Icelandic/ English, Year1990, Illust.
