    • Familjen som pesthärd: Sjukdom och förbrytelse i Vigdis Hjorths Arv og miljø 

      Johnsson, Henrik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-12-19)
      This article conducts a close reading of Vigdis Hjorth’s novel <i>Arv og miljø</i> (2016). I argue that the novel is informed by an imagery of contagion and disease which is used to express a theme of dysfunctional familial relationships. A related imagery of boundaries and cleanliness is used to relay the narrator’s experience of having been sexually assaulted by her father. In closing, I maintain ...
    • ABM-utvikling og avvikling: institusjonell konvergens og divergens i kulturpolitikken 

      Skare, Roswitha; Stokstad, Sigrid; Vårheim, Andreas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-12-11)
      The Norwegian Archive, Library and Museum Authority (<i>ABM-utvikling – Statens senter for arkiv, bibliotek og museum</i>) existed between 2003 and 2010. This article raises the question of why ABM-utvikling was not continued as a cultural policy instrument for the LAM sector. The new body for LAM policy development was based on the notion of converging media expressions and institutions in the ...
    • Paratext – a useful concept for the analysis of digital documents? 

      Skare, Roswitha (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      In his study, Paratexts: Thresholds of Interpretation , the French literature scholar Gérard Genette introduces the concept of the “paratext” to the public. Genette explains the term paratext as that “what enables a text to become a book and to be offered as such to its readers and, more generally, to the public” (Genette 1997, 1). Genette’s concept has since also been applied to other media, ...
    • Latvian CDI: Methodology, developmental trends and cross-linguistic comparison 

      Urek, Olga; Vulane, Anna; Dargis, Roberts; Taurina, Agrita; Zirina, Tija; Simonsen, Hanne Gram (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-21)
      In this article, we report the results of a large-scale population study based on the Latvian adaptation of Communicative Development Inventories (CDI) – a parental report tool aimed at mapping the lexical and grammatical development of children under the age of three. Two CDI forms are discussed: CDI I: ‘Words and Gestures’ (8–16 months), and CDI II: ‘Words and Sentences’ (17–36 months). This article ...
    • El ángel caído en Política de Dios y Sueño del infierno de Quevedo 

      Davenport, Randi Lise (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2019-08-09)
      Este artículo pretende examinar cómo Quevedo aprovecha la figura de Lucifer (el diablo, o ángel caído) en su tratado político <i>Política de Dios</i> y en su sátira menipea <i>Sueño del infierno</i> para reprehender al rey y su privado al tratar de la polémica cuestión de la razón de Estado.
    • The loss of feminine gender in Norwegian: a dialect comparison 

      Busterud, Guro; Lohndal, Terje; Rodina, Yulia; Westergaard, Marit (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-08)
      It is well known that grammatical gender systems may change historically. Previous research has documented loss of the feminine gender in several Norwegian dialects, including those spoken in Oslo and Tromsø (Lødrup in Maal og Minne 2:120–136, 2011; Rodina and Westergaard in J Ger Linguist 27(2):145–187 2015). In these dialects, the change is characterized by replacement of the feminine indefinite ...
    • Los trabajos de Persiles y Sigismunda, historia setentrional de Miguel de Cervantes: Estado de la cuestión y su actualidad para hispanistas nórdicos 

      Davenport, Randi Lise (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-21)
      Miguel de Cervantes’ posthumous novel, <i>Los trabajos de Persiles y Sigismunda, historia setentrional</i>, published in 1617, has in the past decades received renewed attention from Cervantes scholars. This article gives an overview of the main perspectives of current research at the 400<sup>th</sup> anniversary of the novel that the author himself considered his literary testament. It concludes ...
    • On the status of Concordantia Temporum in Spanish: An experimental approach 

      Guajardo, Gustavo Ariel; Goodall, Grant (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-23)
      Subjunctive clauses in Spanish are traditionally claimed to obey Concordantia Temporum (CT), an agreement in tense between the matrix and subjunctive clauses. Treating this phenomenon literally as agreement is problematic, so an analysis in which CT falls out from general principles of tense interpretation, as in Laca (2010a), is very attractive. Nevertheless, this analysis seems to make some <i>prima ...
    • The Reformation and the linguistic situation in Norway 

      Mørck, Endre (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-05)
      The article gives a short account of the development of the spoken language from Old Norwegian to Modern Norwegian, the transition from Norwegian to Danish as the written language in Norway and the language of the church around the Reformation. It is argued that the changes in the spoken language were a long-term development completed, on the whole, at the time of the Reformation, that the transition ...
    • Editorial: Developmental, modal, and pathological variation-linguistic and cognitive profiles for speakers of linguistically proximal languages and varieties 

      Grohmann, Kleanthes K.; Kambanaros, Maria; Leivada, Evelina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-24)
    • Manufacturing Consent in Video Games—The Hegemonic Memory Politics of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (2015) 

      Lundedal Hammar, Emil (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-11)
      In this article I argue that the structural conditions of global capitalism and postcolonialism encourage game developers to rearticulate hegemonic memory politics and suppress subaltern identities. This claim is corroborated via an application of Edward Herman and Noam Chomsky’s propaganda model to the Japanese-developed video game Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. This case study highlights ...
    • The Political Economy of Historical Digital Games 

      Lundedal Hammar, Emil (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2017-11-12)
    • Cervantes en el Septentrión 

      Davenport, Randi Lise; Lozano-Renieblas, Isabel (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2019)
    • Cervantes en el Septentrión 

      Davenport, Randi Lise; Lozano-Renieblas, Isabel (Peer reviewed; Book; Bok, 2019)
      Este volumen recoge quince artículos de destacados cervantistas que presentaron sus trabajos en el Congreso Internacional «<i>Cervantes en el Septentrión</i>», celebrado en la Universidad Ártica de Noruega (Tromsø), en junio de 2017. Convocado con ocasión de los 400 años de la primera edición de Los trabajos de <i>Persiles y Sigismunda, historia septentrional</i>, el congreso contó con el aval ...
    • Resultados vs. Realidad: un ejemplo en las actitudes lingüísticas 

      Ruiz Pareja, Raquel (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2018-12-20)
      Este artículo presenta una revisión de parte de un estudio de investigación sobre actitudes lingüísticas: “Estudio sobre las actitudes lingüísticas en Andalucía: andaluz oriental y andaluz occidental” (Ruiz Pareja, 2015). El objetivo de este trabajo es arrojar un poco de luz sobre el contraste que existe en Sociolingüística entre las actitudes afectivas y cognitivas, que además están presentes en ...
    • Los clíticos marginales y el componente de manera 

      Fábregas, Antonio (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-01)
      Este trabajo estudia los llamados clíticos marginales que forman parte de ciertas construcciones idiomáticas de naturaleza verbal (<i>jorobar<u>la</u>, tomar<u>la</u>, pirárse<u>las</u>, jugárse<u>la</u></i>), concentrándose en dos aspectos de su gramática: su contribución de significado y la tendencia a aparecer como formas femeninas. Se propone que en ambos casos la respuesta se relaciona con la ...
    • Universal linguistic hierarchies are not innately wired. Evidence from multiple adjectives 

      Leivada, Evelina; Westergaard, Marit (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-01)
      <p><i>Background - </i>Linguists and psychologists have explained the remarkable similarities in the orderings of linguistic elements across languages by suggesting that our inborn ability for language makes available certain innately wired primitives. Different types of adjectives, adverbs, and other elements in the functional spine are considered to occupy fixed positions via innate hierarchies ...
    • Verbal Symbols and Demonstrations Across Modalities 

      Ramchand, Gillian C (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-05-22)
      In this paper, I develop a new theory of the ingredients of semantic composition for the verb phrase, building on work in Ramchand (2018). I argue that the essential properties of this new approach make possible a new rapprochement between the theoretical analyses of symbolic verbal meaning across the visual and auditory modalities. The innovation of the new theory is that it partitions the verb ...
    • Memoria Dei: Minnets hermeneutikk i Augustins Confessiones 

      Dahl Hambro, Cathinka (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-06-24)
      Denne artikkelen foretar en lesning av Augustins utlegning om erindringen i bok 10 av <i>Confessiones</i> (<i>Bekjennelser</i>). Jeg foreslår at Augustin selv opererer med en implisitt hermeneutisk tilnærming til sin fortid, til minnet og til seg selv i denne delen av verket. Ved hjelp av Ricoeurs hermeneutiske modell illustrert som en bue fra overfladisk fortolkning via ulike erkjennelsesetapper ...
    • Patografien som genre og funksjon 

      Nesby, Linda Hamrin (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-25)
      I løpet av de siste femti år har det vært en sterk vekst i antall bøker knyttet til personlige sykdomserfaringer, såkalte patografier. Genren har tradisjonelt vært forbeholdt dokumentariske skildringer av pasient eller pårørende, men jeg argumenterer i denne artikkelen for at også skjønnlitteratur med selvbiografiske trekk som tematiserer sykdomsefaringer skal inkluderes. Ved hjelp av Ulla-Carin ...
