Knowledge, Formats, and Fish
The Society for the Promotion of Norwegian Fisheries (Selskabet for de norske fiskeriers fremme) was established in 1879 and started publishing the Norwegian Fisheries’ Journal (Norsk Fiskeritidende). The article argues that this journal, with a total of about 22,500 pages, has been vital to establish “the Norwegian fisheries” as a field of activity and knowledge. It is not only a historical source of information on the fisheries and fish trade i…

Hans Hansen Lilienskiolds historieskriving og dens italienske bakgrunn
Hans Hansen Lilienskiold er i dag mest kjent for sine beskrivelser av Finnmark, verket Speculum boreale. Hans øvrige arbeider, reisedagboken fra hans lange europeiske dannelsesreise og to historieverk, har fått mindre oppmerksomhet. Artikkelen argumenterer for at det er tette sammenhenger mellom alle arbeidene, og at innflytelsen kommer fra den italienske historieskriveren og kunstteoretikeren Emanuele Tesauro. Kunnskapskonvensjoner som Lilienski…
Heritage, Heirs and Performative Competence
Cultural heritage is traces from the past that are ascribed meaning in the present. This basic tenet of current heritage theory is often followed by a call for more democratic heritage processes and the inclusion of more diverse values. The article points to the ensuing paradox: what is left to define heritage when it is neither inherent qualities, nor a set of general values? To explore some issues raised by this paradox, the article focusses on…
Names, knowledge, and formats
Argument The article argues that, contrary to what is often held in academic literature, traditional fishermen had solid empirical knowledge about underwater topography long before acoustic sounding. To substantiate the argument, a large mid twentieth-century collection of place names and terms collected among coastal fishermen in Norway is explored, with the aim to demonstrate that this vocabulary reflects a detailed knowledge about underwater g…

Climate Change Temporalities
In 1804, Christen Pram was sent by the Danish-Norwegian government in Copenhagen to investigate the rumours that ash from the burning of kelp along the north-western coast of Norway was causing the climate to change. The chapter follows Pram’s journey and analyses his efforts to understand what was going on. His initial determination was to rely solely on systematic observation and scientific method, but he gradually came to acknowledge the value…
The Intrusiveness of Heritage
While heritage is almost by definition understood as fragile, vulnerable and in need of protection, this article argues that it is also a powerful cultural force in contemporary society. The small community of Borre, south of Oslo in Norway, is used as a case to investigate how heritage has the power to invade and colonise, and how it has the capacity to create new meanings and redefine social relations. A triad of concepts - expansion, intensifi…
Smallpox inoculation
In the early decades of the eighteenth century, small pox inoculation was introduced into northern Europe from the Middle East. The method consisted of grafting infected matter from a person who suffered from smallpox into the arm of one who had not yet been attacked by the disease. The operation usually caused a mild case of illness and protected against further attacks. A series of translations and transformations was involved in the introducti…
Formens makt og materialitet
The article argues that in the emerging field of the history of knowledge, with its focus on the production, circulation and exchange of knowledge, explorations of forms will represent a valuable addition. Form is related to genre. Yet, while the identification of genres is largely based on linguistic, literary or rhetorical criteria, form is also about structures and materiality as well as about practical and institutional preconditions. Form of…
Copies, Concepts and Time
Copies are defined by their relation to an original. The understanding and evaluation of this relationship has been changing over time. A main argument of this article is that originals and copies are phenomena with no 'natural' or essential meaning outside of their specific historical settings. The idea to be explored is how changing historicity regimes have transformed notions of originals and copies over time and how these differences also are…

The Medical Periodicals of J.C. Tode and the Idea of Public Health
In 1770 ‘Den medicinske Tilskuer’ (The Medical Spectator) was published in Copenhagen. The man behind it was the surgeon, physician and poet Johann Clemens Tode. This was the first of 16 journals in total on health and medicine that Tode was to write, edit and publish until his death in 1806. With his journals, Tode contributed significantly to making health a public issue. This implies conceptualizing health and medicine as reaching beyond the p…
Advocating Inoculation in the Eighteenth Century
ArgumentSmallpox inoculation was introduced in Europe in the early eighteenth century and has been considered the first mass treatment of disease based on practical use of probability calculations and mathematical tools of computation. The article argues that these new approaches were deeply entangled with other rationalities, most emphatically that of exemplarity. Changes in inoculation methods around mid-century gradually changed the conceptual…
Entangled Genealogies History and the Notion of Tradition
Growing reflexivity within folklore studies has established an understanding of tradition as a keyword of Western modernity, and of folklore studies as part of the modernisation processes. The article explores this field by examining how processes that produced a modern idea of history also gave birth to the notion of tradition. The contention is that as twin products of a uniquely modern temporality, history and tradition are mutually constituti…
The Order of Folklore
The Folk-Lore of Rome (1874) by Rachel Harriette Busk was based on her own fieldwork. As an amateur, Busk did not aim to present work that examined the fundamental principles of the discipline. Her work provides a case study to explore how classical folklore theory worked; how taxonomies, the genre system, and ideas of how folklore developed served as practical tools. This article examines how the categories and concepts developed in folklore sch…
How to Study History
Nicolas Lenglet Dufresnoy first published his Méthode pour Étudier L'Histoire in 1713. A very popular work in its own time, it saw numerous translations and editions during the eighteenth century. The article investigates Lenglet's work as part of the early modern tradition of ars historica. In the eighteenth century this once so fashionable art of reading history did no longer represent a methodological novelty, but had become more a pedagogical…
A Case of Exemplarity
Smallpox inoculation was one of the great discoveries of the 18th century and has been written into the grand narrative of medical progress, describing the taming of epidemic disease. Setting the perspective of progress aside, the article explores how this medical innovation was situated in 18th-century society and culture. The aim is to investigate how medical practice was intertwined with social structure and cultural patterns. The article take…
Making Facts from Stones
In 1762, the historian and antiquary Gerhard Schøning published a large work on the Cathedral of Trondheim. Originally the shrine of Norway's patron saint and christening king, Saint Olav, the building had suffered decay since the Reformation. In the eighteenth century, large parts of the medieval structure lay in ruins. Schøning's aim was to reveal the ancient glory of the Cathedral - and, implicitly, of the nation. His meticulous work gained hi…

Our Lady of Perpetual Help
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Our Lady of Perpetual Help was among the most widely spread images in the Catholic world. At the center of its notoriety stands a complex of religious practices and narratives that arose after the image arrived at the Redemptorist Church of St. Alphonsus in Rome in 1866.

Å lytte til historiens sus
In spite of the common stereotype of modern man as out of touch with his past, the importance of history is universally accepted in modern societies. History provides identity, roots and belonging. While the work of historians serves to supply materials for this view, it is a task for cultural analysis to ask why history works in this way, to investigate in what ways history and the past is perceived. This perspective requires the development of …
Den nasjonale kulturarven — en del av det moderne
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in discussing the meaning and effect of cultural analysis. A recognition has emerged that our work not only accumulates knowledge about culture but also, to some extent, contributes to the creation of culture. One well known example of this is found in the history of our subject: the early folklorists very consciously aimed at constructing to raise a national culture. But also more generally cult…
