Bare hyggelig og takk i like måte. Moderatorrollen kler deg godt, men jeg ser frem hovedrollen også noe senere på litteraturhuset, hvis man kan si det sånn. :)

Tricky! These are almost as rare as hen's teeth, and we just...

And, it includes HOW Many Books? (Five from Germany c. 1601 and a blank one at last count...) #Vexierbuch #DosADos @newberrylibrary.bsky.social (Case C 823 .966)

"Das Bild, das derzeit von Europa als Hort der Demokratie und internationalen Kooperation, als liberaler Gegenpart den USA unter Trump entgegengehalten wird, ist aber ein Mythos."
Som kontrast til nettsiden til Nasjonalbiblioteket, der knappen "Spør biblioteket" *ikke* tar deg til en chatbot, men derimot til en side der du kan avtale en telefonsamtale med et ekte menneske.
Dette er så hårreisende idiotisk at det er vanskelig å tro. Enda verre blir det faktisk om man følger lenken om tips og råd.
That's beside the point, but your post reminded me that Carsten Haas gave an excellent paper at the last saga conference comparing Old Norse skaldic poetry and classical Somali poetry. As far as I know he hasn't published that yet.
Tusen takk til Hilde Henriksen Waage for utmerket formidling denne uka.
Denne var ny for meg: Rød-Larsen har kuppa arkivet etter Osloprosessen. At UD har godtatt dette er en skandale.

Man streicht die Kurse, zu denen man die Leute verpflichtet, verhindert die Integration, deren Mangel man beklagt. Und morgen wirft man den Betroffenen wahrscheinlich wieder Mangel an Dankbarkeit vor.

Es hat Gründe, dass in den Epstein Files ein großer Teil der damals führenden KI Forscher auftaucht. Nicht nur weil sie Creeps sind (das auch!) sondern weil es dort und zu Leuten wie Peter Thiel massive ideologische Überschneidungen gibt.
“Die Parallelen zu Deutschland sind erschreckend und offensichtlich. Nahezu gar nicht wird über die Verflechtungen der Union mit der Heritage Foundation, die hinter #Project 2025 steht, berichtet. Wir hören stattdessen, wie JournalistInnen besprechen, ob sie (2)
Congratulations to Nikhil Malik, who successfully defended his thesis "Manufacturing Utopia: Refugees, Labour, and the Making of the New Industrial Township Faridabad, 1947-1960" for the degree of philosophiae doctor (PhD) @UiO - Det humanistiske fakultet.
A photo of the proud gang (mentioned in the previous post that this one replies to) after the successful defense.

🌟💀MORÐ lanseres 4. mars! 💀🌟
Før det kan du forhåndsbestille boka, attpåtil signert og med personlig hilsen, og jeg har fått beskjed om at det beste stedet å gjøre det er her: bok.norli.no/mord
An interesting PhD opportunity (i.e. job!) at Oslo on the project POLYCHROME: "Candidates should propose a research project that examines, in one form or another, historical sources that shed light on changing attitudes to medieval objects after the Reformations in the Scandinavian countries."
I think Christian VII of Denmark-Norway here as well
This report in Nature on the costs of competing for & administering scientific grants is shocking: "In other words, European taxpayers will have spent more on the funding process than on the funding itself, and the scientific ecosystem has been drained." www.nature.com/articles/d41... 🧪
Gavene er åpnet, og du har sikkert fått mange nye bøker. Men hva skal du gjøre når alle er lest? Frykt ikke! Nå kan du forhåndsbestille boka hvor jeg tar dere med tilbake til 1400-tallet og forteller om hva som skjer når vanlige norske bønder må løse en mordgåte.

Oh, it goes deeper than that. The Christmas tree is actually a folk memory of the two trees of Valinor, whose pure light was captured in the Silmarils (Silmaril -> ilmaril -> irmarel -> ermarel -> ornamel > ornament)
a lot of people don't realize that Christmas carols and traditions are actually folk memories of suppressed pre-Christian events, namely the end of the Third Age and the Fall of Sauron.
There's lots of ongoing work as we're preparing for the new Museum of the Viking Age to open in Oslo. Our museum, @kult-hist-museum.bsky.social is now hiring an Associate Professor in Nordic archaeology, with expertise in the Viking Age. www.jobbnorge.no/ledige-still... #Vikingtidsmuseet
Earlier this year, I took over as the editor-in-chief of the Norwegian scholarly journal Collegium Medievale, which publishes articles in both English & Scandinavian languages. This year's ordinary issue has just been published, & is open access: ojs.novus.no/index.php/CM....
This is a terrific article by Tim, with fascinating implications for people interested in manuscripts, magic and beekeeping 🐝 #medievalsky
