The Trouble with Mediated Memories
From its invention at the end of the nineteenth century, film has become increasingly intertwined with the formation of individual and collective memories around the world, not only in terms of the events and people films depict but also as part of the historical record themselves. Although the extensive circulation of Nordic silent film in Australasia in the early decades of the twentieth century has been almost entirely forgotten, digitized loc…

The German Minority in Denmark in Historical Perspective, the EU border region of Sønderjylland (Southern Jutland/Schleswig-Holstein) is often held up today as a model for the harmonious co-existence of different linguistic and ethnic groups, but it is important to remember that this positive state of affairs did not come about easily or quickly. The Danish- and …

Amid the frequent assertions of Nordic secularism, it can be easy to forget that religion has been a central defining aspect of individual and national identities in the Nordic region for hundreds of years. Religion, in this respect, encompasses not only the Evangelical Lutheran institutions and theological principles that shaped public life in Scandinavia from the Protestant Reformation until at least the mid-twentieth century, but also the conc…
Report of the President for the Society for the Advancement of Scandinavian Study
The main topic of the SASS president's report is usually the highly successful conference held the preceding year, but, as you all know, we were forced by the pandemic to postpone the conference scheduled for Rio Mar, Puerto Rico, until April 2022, which was a painful decision to make and one that we put off as long as we could, in the vain hope that there might be some quick way to get the coronavirus outbreak under control before it ravaged the…

Sexy Danes, Tipsy Germans
While nation-branding campaigns have become a popular means for governments to attempt to improve their country’s standing on international indexes, such as the Anholt-Gfk Roper Nation Brand Index (NBI), the generally static ranking on such indexes suggests that national brands cannot simply be shaped by clever marketing campaigns. Instead, national brands rest on deeply rooted perceptions of a country’s character and identity, which often have m…
