På antikfilmens bakgator : antika världar och samtida värden i B-film

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Antikfilm förknippas oftast med storslagna Hollywoodproduktioner, men antika motiv och händelser var även föremål för en lång rad b-filmer producerade i Italien från slutet av 1950-talet. Denna artikel diskuterar denna brokiga skara av mestadels förbisedda filmer. Hur förhöll sig dessa ”B-filmer” till den antika historien och vilken bild av antiken var det som nådde publiken när budget, ambition liksom filmiskt handlag var begränsat?

Measuring Up to the Humanities : Navigating the Epistemological Advantage of Classical Humanism in Nineteenth-Century Scholarly Periodicals

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This chapter analyzes the epistemological hierarchy around the middleof the nineteenth century in Sweden through efforts to mobilize supportfor natural science in scholarly periodicals. It is argued that scholarlycommunication was key to achieving legitimacy for natural science, butthat such efforts were mitigated by a dominant view of the humanitiesin general and classical humanism in particular as more valuable tosociety. Tensions between natural science and classical humanism wereexpressed in negotiations of the nebulous concept of bildning – the Swedishequivalent of the German Bildung – and the article demonstrates hownatural scientists tried to navigate its semantic usage and advocate theview that natural science could achieve the educational goals associatedwith classical humanism.

Futures of the History of the Humanities : An Introduction
- 2023

Ingår i: History of Humanities. - : University of Chicago Press. - 2379-3163 .- 2379-3171. ; 8:2, s. 177-187

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Over the last decade, scholarly attention has turned to the humanities’ collective past with renewed energy and sense of purpose. As a result, a new field of research, the history of the humanities, has crystalized and received broad international attention. In this forum, we take a special interest in the question of where the history of the humanities is heading. And where do we want it to go? In order to fuel discussion, six scholars have been invited to contribute their perspectives on what the future holds for the field. In our introduction, we frame these contributions by outlining the origins, current state, and potential trajectories of the new (or possibly reformed) field of research. Summarizing the ambitions of the field as well as its transdisciplinary links and influences, we reflect on why it has emerged as well as consider the larger implications for the humanities as a whole. It is argued that although the full potential of the history of the humanities is far from being reached, the very concept has functioned as an integrative platform, opening up new lines of inquiry within a larger framework. Nevertheless, as the contributions to this forum collectively make evident, there are also a number of challenges that the history of the humanities will face going forward.

Unity lost : Negotiating the ancient roots of Pedagogy in Sweden, 1865–1971
- 2022

Ingår i: History of Education Review. - : Emerald. - 0819-8691 .- 2054-5649. ; 51:2, s. 137-153

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Purpose – The purpose of this article is to investigate attempts to safeguard classical humanism in secondary schools by appealing to a cultural-historical link with Antiquity, voiced in the face of educational reforms in Sweden between 1865 and 1971.Design/methodology/approach – By focusing on the content of the pedagogical journal Pedagogisk Tidskrift, the article highlights a number of examples of how an ancient historical lineage was evoked and how historical knowledge was mobilized and contested in various ways.Findings – The article argues that the enduring negotiation over the educational need to maintain a strong link with the ancient past was strained due to increasing scholarly specialization and thus entangled in competing views on reform and what was deemed “traditional” or “modern”.Originality/value – From a larger perspective, the conflict over the role of Antiquity in Swedish secondary schools reveals a trajectory for the history of education as part of and later apart from a general history of the humanities. Classical history originally served as a common past from which Swedish culture and education developed, but later lost this integrating function within the burgeoning discipline of Pedagogy. The findings demonstrate the value of bringing the newly (re)formed history of humanities and history of education closer together.

Vetenskapliga tidskrifter – ett lömskt problem för humaniora
- 2022
-
Ingår i: Scandia. - : Scandia: Tidskrift for historisk forskning, Lund University. - 0036-5483. ; 88:2, s. 339-352

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The question of how to fund Swedish academic journals such as Scandia has become a wicked problem, not only for history but also for the humanities as a whole. This issue is confounded by the difficulty in terms of categorizing these journals and their funding needs and further complicated by the global movement towards open access. For the humanities, the issue of how to fund these journals is of great concern mainly due to a more pluralistic approach to publishing, where not only high-impact journals but also monographs, edited volumes and essays aimed at multiple audiences are still considered prestigious and relevant for society as a whole. At the same time, these journals are not necessarily perceived as relevant by the rest of the scientific community. The main reason is that, even though traces of more traditional forms of publishing can still be found in both the social and the natural sciences, a uniform publishing ideal is dominant in most disciplines and most prestigious outlets are owned by international publishing houses. Complicating matters further, publishing practices in the humanities are not only changing rapidly but vary between and within disciplines, generations and even universities.Despite the fact that this problem has been recognized both internationally and in Sweden, a solution has remained elusive, causing frustration among researchers and editors. This essay argues that the first step is to view the question of funding as embedded in both local and global processes and that in order to find a sustainable model, several stakeholders need to take responsibility and collaborate at the national level. An important argument for sharing responsibility between and across departments, disciplines, funders and, lastly, the government is that Swedish journals are not only part of the ecosystem of prestige within academia but also serve as an infrastructure for authoritative knowledge aimed at the public sphere.

Det ständiga fallet : Romarrikets fall som politisk resurs i samtiden.
- 2015

Ingår i: Statsvetenskaplig tidskrift. - 0039-0747. ; 117:3, s. 451-468
-
Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This article discusses the political use of the fall of the Roman empire and in particular the way this historical motif has been utilized in environmental debates and in US political culture. It is furthermore argued that the historiography of the fall of the Roman empire bears witness to the ideological and existential contexts of specific explanations to why Rome fell.
