Dendrochronological\u0000 and archaeological evidence suggests that the 536 CE event was probably catastrophic,\u0000 and this article argues that its memory may have been preserved and recorded in myth.\u0000 The related myth may have had the purpose of handing down important teachings to future\u0000 generations: the awareness that life is cyclically threatened by natural disasters,\u0000 the value of humbleness before nature, and the hope that, no matter what happens,\u0000 humankind is going to survive.\u0000","PeriodicalId":111474,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian-Canadian Studies","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129174824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This kind of rhetoric also challenges the concepts of subject and\u0000 object, or more specifically personhood and objecthood. The article explores the social\u0000 utility of object rhetoric for structuring collective memory in medieval Iceland by\u0000 studying the named weapons of Laxdæla saga. The first section examines several texts’ depiction of the sword Skǫfnungr to illustrate\u0000 how it possesses both personhood and objecthood simultaneously. The second section\u0000 situates Skǫfnungr as one of five named weapons in Laxdæla saga. The saga makes coherent rhetorical use of these objects to reshape Icelandic collective\u0000 memory and thus sense of self in the face of the Norwegian annexation and other social\u0000 changes in the thirteenth century.\u0000","PeriodicalId":111474,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian-Canadian Studies","volume":"37 23","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132881158","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Forgotten King of Denmark – Haraldr II 被遗忘的丹麦国王——哈拉尔德二世

A detailed analysis\u0000 of the written primary sources from Denmark and Iceland—such as Saxo’s Gesta Danorum, Chronicon Roskilde, and Knýtlinga saga—gives the impression that the Danes wanted to forget Haraldr II by deliberately omitting\u0000 his brief reign from these narratives. This article investigates the possible reasons\u0000 why Danish historians of the eleventh and twelfth centuries may have wanted to collectively\u0000 forget Haraldr. To demonstrate how Haraldr has been omitted from historical narratives,\u0000 this study compares a variety of different primary sources from Scandinavia and England,\u0000 in order to gather as much information as possible on the topic. The article subsequently\u0000 explores three possible explanations as to why Haraldr has been omitted: (1) the possibility\u0000 that Haraldr reverted to pre-Christian religious beliefs, contradicting medieval historians’\u0000 perspectives of a true king, (2) transmission of the sources in the medieval ages\u0000 and (3) a lack of worthwhile events during the height of medieval Danish success.\u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":111474,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian-Canadian Studies","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115650127","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is evident that memory studies has\u0000 become a field of research that ranges from the humanities to the social sciences\u0000 to the natural sciences, with the only common denominator being the object of study\u0000 of memory. But what memory is, how memory is constituted, or how it can be analyzed\u0000 or even made measurable is where the publications discussed differ strikingly. The\u0000 aim of this review is therefore not to place the three publications in a singular\u0000 context but rather, by discussing their differences, to show how diverse memory studies\u0000 is as a field and to present what the breadth of different approaches that look beyond\u0000 oneʼs own disciplinary boundaries can offer regarding the future engagement with memory\u0000 in Scandinavian studies and especially in Scandinavian medieval studies.\u0000","PeriodicalId":111474,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian-Canadian Studies","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117110542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In doing so, Hallgrímsson\u0000 contributed to the nationalist ideology that garnered widespread support for Icelandic\u0000 nationalism and furnished Icelandic politicians with justifications for increased\u0000 autonomy.
