  • A Nineteenth‐century Finnish Reading Society and Its World Views : Commerce, Civilization and Colonialism Examined
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Svensk biblioteksforskning. - Borås : Högskolan i Borås, Institutionen Biblioteks- och Informationsvetenskap. - 0284-4354 .- 1653-5235. ; 17:1, s. 1-27

    • The main objective of this essay is to examine the ʹworld viewsʹ of the nineteenth‐century Finnish circulatory library, ʺLäsesällskapet i Gamlakarlebyʺ that operated under mild imperial (Russian) supervision during its active period (1800‐ca 1870). For this purpose I have studied 93 beyond‐Europe books of travel and geography. I have identified two major ideological divides: a colonial that promotes ongoing aggressive Western expansion and a conciliatory one that mediates doubts and resistance. Samuel Ödmann, the translator and Uppsala professor of theology, represents the former divide; Anders Chydenius, one of the founding members, economist and clergyman, the latter. The collection engages, it is shown, the local reader of direct or indirect experiences of sailing, the ship industry and commerce which were the major trades of (Gamla)Karleby at the time. The Africa and West Indies related texts are a particularly rich feature. Slavery andt he unlucky Swedish part in colonization (Sierra Leone and St. Barthélemy) concern the readers.

  • Granqvist, Raoul J., 1940- (författare)
  • Afrika i adertonhundratalets Gamlakarleby : om kolonialism, slavhandel och motstånd
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Horisont:organ för Svenska Österbottens litteraturförening. - Närpes, Finland : Svenska Österbottens litteraturförening. - 0439-5530. ; 55:1, s. 40-47
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Essän diskuterar en liten samling reseskildringar om Afrika som ingår i Läsesällskapets i Gamlakarleby bibliotek i Karleby, Finland. Böckerna insamlades under tidigt adertonhundratal under en tid då denna stad var en av Nordens främsta och rikaste hamnstäder. Hypotesen är att detta faktum även reflekterar det stora intresset för en värld även utanför Europa. Essän diskuterar två förhållningssätt som samlingen gestaltar: en kolonial och 'civilisatorisk' och en annan kolonialkritisk. Den förra synen representeras av översättaren Samuel Ödmann och den senare av riksdagsmannen och kaplanen Anders Chydenius, en av Läsesällskapets grundare.

  • Agony and Penance : Sara Lidman in  South Africa 1960-1961
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: Current Writing. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1013-929X .- 2159-9130. ; 29:1, s. 2-15
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The Swedish writer Sara Lidman (1923-2004) wrote Jag och min son ("I and My Son") after a brief stint in apartheid South Africa in 1960-61, from where she was expelled for violation of the Immorality Act. Based on a close, interrelated study of her diary, her letters and the two book manuscripts (first published in 1961; revised and re-published in 1963), I examine the colonial boundary crisis of the Self. The major protagonists in the novels or autobiographies embody, variously, aspects of the writer's angst as it developed in the Johannesburg colonial setting of persecuted ANC members, the elite of the local Swedish community, the friendship of Nadine Gordimer, and the pressure of her anticolonial frustrations.

  • 'Att leva ut slaven i mig' : postkoloniala perspektiv på Sara Lidman i apartheids Sydafrika 1960-1961
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Tidskrift för litteraturvetenskap. - 1104-0556 .- 2001-094X. ; 2, s. 62-77
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The Swedish writer Sara Lidmann (1923-2004) wrote Jag och min son ("I and My Son") after a brief stint in apartheid's South Africa in 1960-61, from where she was expelled for a violation of the Immorality Act. Based on a close, interrelated study of her diary, her letters and the two manuscripts (first published in 1961 and revised and re-published in 1963), this essay ("'To outlive the slave in me': Postcolonial Perspectives on Sara Lidman in Apartheid's South Africa 1960-1961") examines the colonial boundary crisis of the Self. The major protagonists in the novel(s) embody variously aspects of the writer's angst as it developed in the Johannesburg colonial setting of persecuted ANC members, the elite of the local Swedish community, and the pressure of her anticolonial frustrations. Sexuality is a major element in the "nervous condition" that characterizes the fragmented and confusing conceptualization of the novel. Its extensive rewriting was an attempt at strengthening its ideological, anti-imperial modus, pushing the novel into the environs of the postcolonial allegory such as in such texts as Jean Rhys' Wide Sargasso Sea (1966), Tsitsi Dangarembga's Nervous Conditions (1988) and Bessie Head's A Question of Power (1974). A second self-castigating theme, this essay claims, is the impact of the religious background of the author as born into -- but never at peace with -- strong evangelical and paternal practices. 'Outliving the slave' (a quote from one of her letters) in the title of the essay proposes a Fanonian reading of the circulatory and traumatizing notion of rebellion (against Apartheid) and submission (to it). The third theme involves the idealization of the child that also involves a colonial cul-de-sac of self-positioning expressed both in the novel and the writer's attempts at adopting an African child (never realized).
