Sonja Hauberg (1918–1947) was a Danish writer who is remembered mainly as a novelist. After initially writing poems and short stories, she made her promising book debut in 1942 with Hvad vil du mig?. Her most successful work was Syv Aar for Lea (Seven years for Lea, 1944), a puberty novel which was republished several times by 1980 and most recently in 2019. A member of the Danish Communist Party, she died when only 27 after contracting typhus at a writers' convention she had organized in Finland. via Wikipedia

Born on 5 March 1918 in the Frederiksberg district of Copenhagen

To kick off this blog I wanted to create a post about my favorite Mesoamerican Artifact. “The Shaman in Transformation Pose” Culture: Olmec 800 B.C. in polished gray stone. Discovered in Teopantecuanitlan, current day Guerrero.  

Something that truly stands out on the first figure is the carving of a smiling toad on its forehead, which Scholars (such as the ones in the source listed below) believe could be the cane toad (Rhinella marina) formerly assigned to the genus Bufo.

But now who is this very inquisitive gentleman? The cane toad is a frog that would have induced hallucinations into the ancient olmecs and although some scholars believe that this motif displays the shaman transforming into a frog i am more inclined to agree with Dr Reilly, that this motif is merely a symbol for transformation.

The second artifact i wanna discuss is the Hauberg-Dumbarton Oaks kneeling were-jaguar, Culture: Olmec. Serpentine, with traces of red cinnabar. When these artifacts are placed together (along with their four other brothers) a story takes shape in the form of a shaman's transformation into a jaguar. These figures would have at one point been covered in red cinnabar indicating their importance.

As shown above we see this transformation take place with the final form being the standing jaguar statue (or as a i like to call it, the boxing jaguar or jaguar dancing the salsa) The importance of these artifacts is that  they not only provide us with a valuable insight into Olmec artistic cannon but they also as Dr Reilly states show that “The traces of red cinnabar signify that if the figures were not created as grave furniture, they were used in the funeral ritual and placed in the grave” (More on red cinnabar and its importance in mesoamerica in a later blog post). These figures would have at this time had been placed in graves of elite members of society and could have backed up the hypothesis of michael coe in his work  "Olmec Jaguars and Olmec Kings” And later restated in Dr Reillys article that olmec theogny would have been used to confirm royal power.

"Somali memoirs"

In the community play "Somaliske erindringer" ("Somali memoirs") seven Danish-Somali citizens took the stage. Together they presented a mosaic story, pieced together from memories and hopes for the future. The play was presented in the heart of Gellerup, a part of Aarhus which the Danish government had declared a "ghetto" at the time.

Next project: VOTE!

yes yes, the "Fries" are crunchy and well seasoned but the insightful and sometimes spicy chit chat between them and AHA is almost over. Later today and next week the last two parts will be posted. Time for something new and equally exciting! Down here a list of the podcasts I found, but if you have suggestions, please let me know!

Too Late Night Show After Dark Podcast : Sebastian has a good long friendly conversation with Alex Høgh Andersen from Vikings about hygge and youtube!

Into the Depths : Episode 3 of Into The Depths sees us head to home waters for the first ever Danish SailGP event in Aarhus. So, what better guest than a true Viking - Danish actor Alex Høgh Andersen? Alex tells all about joining the team onboard the foiling F50 for the ride of a lifetime and reveals some of his biggest challenges as he has risen to become one of Denmark’s most in-demand actors. Ever wondered what life was really like on the set of Vikings? Well, now you can find out…

RADIO GLAD: Lars Hauberg is visited by Alex Høgh Andersen who is currently in the American series "Vikings" which hits all over the world. Alex plays the angry and tormented Ivar Benløs who is the son of the Viking chief Ragnar and - as the name says - can not walk on his legs, but must drag himself off the floor with the help of two sharp daggers, which he furiously chases into the ground. Alex talks about the many challenges in his work. About struggles and joys - and about how it all started with the Fairytale Theater and mother's good advice.

PodPassion: This week, Mads Emil Grove Møller is visited by the actor Alex Høgh Andersen, who has enjoyed great success in the HBO series 'Vikings'. The conversation touched on his acting career, ‘Vikings’, experiences. In addition, the talk touched on Alex's passion for photography and an upcoming book, charity, social media, personal goals and what it's like to be a world star.

Alene: This episode of 'Alone' features actor Alex Høgh Andersen and 16-year-old Emma. Together they talk about life as actors, about feeling alone without really being that and his problems.

Livets Skole: Today's guest has truly experienced adventures in the big world. In today's episode, we talk with actor Alex Høgh Andersen, about the journey abroad, and all the vulnerability and excitement that brings.

Jonas og Malte Mod Verden: It's December, but that does not mean we're going into Christmas mood. Because we have been visited by a real Danish Viking. Name is Alex Høgh Andersen who plays Ivar The Boneless in History Channel's "Vikings" on HBO Nordic. We're talking about the life of the new international actor, both the past and the future in front of the camera, what to do when you're not crawling around and throwing axes. And then we fix some problems in the worst possible way.

Ildsjael: We are back! And what a section! Alex Høgh Andersen is on fire!We hear the stories about the back of the medal, by playing “Ivar Benløs”, in the global mega-success 'Vikings' and about the price that Alex has personally had to pay to perform at SO high a level while he himself struggled with physical and mental challenges. It's wild! Alex is currently nominated for a Bodil, for Best Male Lead, for his work in Ole Bornedal's "The Shadow In My Eye" - and in addition to his work as an actor - his heart beats for photography and for humanitarian work. Now we turn up the heat! Ladies and gentlemen; Alex Høgh! Get inspired!

DIGITAL+SOCIAL: In a unique series of masterclasses recorded live on Instagram, Jonas Risvig takes you on the journey of inspiring Danes. The message is simple: stay home and unfold your creativity.

Køretimen: Have you ever seen a Viking in a Porsche? If you're listening to this episode of Driving Time, then you have at least heard what it sounds like when you ask a true Viking to pick five pieces of music. Today's guest is the hyper-talented actor Alex Høgh Andersen, who plays the role of Ivar The Boneless in Vikings. It's pure driving pleasure, love of music and a good solid nice conversation - it's a driving lesson. Listen carefully.

Mads og A-holdet (talk show format): The A-team : Actor Alex Høgh Andersen, TV host Sofie Linde and comedian Melvin Kakooza. Sharing intimate photos, a bonus daughter from the past and a potential neighbor conflict.

The Little-Known Story of 16th- to 18th-Century Nordic Witch Trials

https://sciencespies.com/history/the-little-known-story-of-16th-to-18th-century-nordic-witch-trials/

The Little-Known Story of 16th- to 18th-Century Nordic Witch Trials

Fire, smoke and wood surround a young woman tied to a stake. As the flames creep closer, she strains against her bonds, fruitlessly hoping to escape her impending fate. Her skin sizzles, and her terrified screams pierce the air before fading into silence.

This scenario may sound like the beginning of a horror movie or a nightmare, but in late Renaissance and Enlightenment-era Europe, it was an all-too-familiar sight, with tens of thousands burned at the stake for witchcraft. Some were lucky enough to be strangled, hanged or beheaded prior to facing the flames, but many were left to endure the full horrors of the sentence.

Almost 240 years after Europe’s last execution on charges of witchcraft, an exhibition at Kunsthal Charlottenborg in Copenhagen, Denmark, seeks to shed light on 16th- through 18th-century witches and witchcraft trials in the Nordic region. Titled “Witch Hunt,” the show juxtaposes contemporary commissions with historical works by the likes of Albrecht Dürer and Claude Gillot.

“The participating artists explore discriminatory fear and hatred as it spreads from both the bottom up and the top down—between neighbors onto larger communities and from governments to other political institutions, questioning how such narratives are often written out of history,” says the gallery in a statement. “At a time of global unrest, as the politics of commemoration are in question, ‘Witch Hunt’ suggests the need to revisit seemingly distant histories and proposes new imaginaries for remembering and representation.”

As alluded to by the statement, representation is a key aspect of the witchcraft narrative. Between 70 and 80 percent of individuals accused of witchcraft in Europe were women, writes scholar Suzannah Lipscomb for History Extra; she adds, “[B]ecause women were believed to be morally and spiritually weaker than men, they were thought to be particularly vulnerable to diabolic persuasion.”

“Witch Hunt” recontextualizes this trend, scrutinizing the biased nature of witchcraft trials and drawing attention to oft-overlooked “incidents of indigenous violence” in Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden and Finland, per Caroline Goldstein of artnet News.

Featuring such female artists as Louise Bourgeois, Carol Rama, Carmen Winant and Aviva Silverman, the exhibition contextualizes works of art on view by presenting scholarship and archival materials that detail the social, gendered and geopolitical aspects of Nordic witchcraft trials.

“From the impact of Danish colonialism to the multifaceted violences of misogyny, the exhibition proposes a present haunted by persecutions of the past—but one that is also occupied by new critical voices of opposition,” says Kunsthal Charlottenborg in the statement.

Some pieces in the show—such as Máret Ánne Sara’s Gielastuvvon (Snared)—appear to explicitly reference the vicious history of the trials. In the 2018 work, noose-like lassoes hang from the ceiling, offering viewers an eerie reminder of the fate that some witches faced. (In Salem, Massachusetts, for instance, accused witches were hanged rather than burned.) Others, like Albrecht Dürer’s 1497 De fire hekse (The Four Witches), are less immediately arresting but still illuminating.

In Denmark specifically, around 1,000 individuals were executed as witches, wrote Jimmy Fyfe for the Copenhagen Post in 2016. Though the practice of witchcraft itself emerged as part of Danish culture as early as 1100, witch-hunting hysteria peaked during the 16th and 17th centuries, when the Protestant Reformation was in full force.

Denmark’s Christian IV introduced an ordinance “against witches and their accomplices” in 1617. According to a 2011 paper by Louise Nyholm Kallestrup, a historian at the University of Southern Denmark, the legislation “prohibited all forms of magic, benevolent as well as malevolent,” and emphasized the public’s “obligation to denounce witchcraft to the courts.”

During the eight years following the ordinance’s adoption, Denmark’s number of witchcraft trials increased, with accused individuals burned at the stake roughly every five days, per Agence France-Presse (AFP). Witch hunts only fell in popularity in the second half of the 17th century, when skepticism among the upper classes precipitated their decline.

Kunsthal Charlottenborg isn’t the only Danish cultural institution revisiting the region’s history of witchcraft. In June, Hex! Museum of Witch Hunt opened in the town of Ribe. As AFP reports, the museum—located in the house of a former witch hunter—features witchcraft-related objects ranging from brooms to amulets, dolls and torture devices.

“Interestingly, the ‘historic truths’ pertaining to the witch hunt era have since been blurred and reinterpreted by more popular notions of the topic,” museum historian Louise Hauberg Lindgaard tells AFP, “and we can definitely feel the desire to understand ‘what actually happened’ among our guests.”

“Witch Hunt” is on view at the Kunsthal Charlottenborg in Copenhagen from November 7 to January 17, 2021.
