Knowing and Not Knowing
The only thing missing is the theme song from The Pink Panther. On 5 January, thieves break the window of West Norway Museum of Applied Art1 (now part of the KODE art museums). Dressed in black and wearing headlamps, they climb in among ancient, fragile art objects. In the semi-darkness between the sculptures and shiny, small Buddhist figures, the thieves walk determinedly toward specific display cases. Urns teeter before some of them fall and br…
Permanent Displays' as Unsettling Layers of Epistemologies, Politics and Aesthetics
This article argues that museum exhibitions often are formed through multiple layers. It presents readings of two contrasting exhibition narratives, the ethnographic display at the Museum of Cultural History in Oslo and the national history exhibition at Lillehammer Museum. While the latter speaks about the national self, the museum in Oslo addresses the nation's radical other. In spite of this contrasting thematic focus, they have much in common…
Visualising invisibility
This article explores how photographs of Sámi peoples were used in the context of Norwegian physical anthropology in the interwar period, but also how they are re-appropriated in the Lule Sámi community in Tysfjord today. It also demonstrates how photography as used in in the Norwegian racial research publications, although designed to highlight physical characteristics, also include references to cultural characteristics and context. Such inclus…

Christian Revivalism and Political Imagination in Madagascar
The point of departure for this paper is the particular role of Christian movements in Madagascar's most recent political crisis. During the coup d'état in March 2009, ritual specialists from the Christian revival movementFifohazanawere called on to carry out an exorcism to cleanse the presidential palace of evil forces. This incident not only shows the significance of Christian revival movements within the Malagasy political landscape and societ…
Absence and Presence
RiddoDuottarMuseat-Sámiid Vuorká-Dávvirat (RDM-SVD) in Karasjok, the first Sámi museum in Norway, was established in 1972 as part of the political struggle and cultural mobilization of the Sámi population. Since the beginning, the museum has collected both cultural history objects and contemporary Sámi art. The Sámi museum practices reflect an awareness of how the Sámi people's photographic legacy is dominated by the gaze of others. Perhaps the S…
Ritual Imagination
Ritual Imagination is a study of spirit possession and ritual dynamics. Based on fieldwork in eastern Madagascar, Hilde Nielssen shows how tromba possession works as a flexible and fluid force, whose ritual imaginary playfully draws together elements from radically different cultural and social domains, thereby constituting human realities and creating ways of relating to changing and disjunctive circumstances. Tromba's strength lies in its fluid…
Protestant Missions and Local Encounters in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries
This book makes visible an important but largely neglected aspect of Christian missions: its transnational character. An interdisciplinary group of scholars present case-studies on missions and individual missionaries, unified by a common vision of expanding a Christian Empire “to the ends of the world”. Examples range from Madagascar, South-Africa, Palestine, Turkey, Tibet, Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, Canada and Britain. Engaging in activi…
