- “Virtue, honour and fear of God” SUMMARY The establishment of fideicommiss (entail, fee tail) was only allowed in Sweden between 1686 and 1810 and during this period approximately 300 fideicommiss were established. Inspired by European legislation, it was primarily a noble phenomenon. The motive was to prevent the property from being split up. A fideicommiss was established through a deed, a performative will which, by designating a certain property as a fideicommiss, exempted the property from the usual rules of inheritance. A central part of the deed was the order of succession, i.e. how the property was to be inherited in future generations. But many deeds contain much more, for example the founder could set a number of conditions for the successor. In this paper the focus is on the conditions and the ideology the deeds express. The result shows an interesting conflict between a meritocratic and an aristocratic ideology. The founders were often successful businessmen, as fideicommiss could only be established on purchased land. But founders were obviously worried that the successors would not be as capable. Thus, the conditions had an aristocratic character, where the most common was that the successor had to marry noble.

Doctoral thesis (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This thesis examines the attitudes towards marriage for love among the Swedish aristocracy from 1750 to 1900. It also explores how the expression and experience of love transformed during the same period. According to previous research, the ideal of marrying for love emerged in the 18th century and resulted in fundamental changes in how romantic love was perceived. These changes are generally credited to the middle class, due to their foundation of wealth on a monetary economy rather than on landed estates. The aristocracy was considered to have held onto a more pragmatic system, which viewed birth and estate as more important than the feelings of individuals. This thesis is comprised of two main surveys. The first is a macro-historical analysis of how love and marriage were understood by the Swedish aristocracy. The source materials consist primarily of printed diaries, memoirs and autobiographies. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between family and the individual, and to explore how factors such as money, titles and love were ranked when choosing a spouse. In conclusion, though nobility often had to take factors such as wealth and titles into account, marrying for love was the ideal state throughout the entire period studied. The second survey is a micro-historical analysis of the correspondence between aristocratic lovers, one set dates from 1756 and the other from 1858/59. The purpose of this study is to analyze how and why the expression and experience of love transformed. The method assumes that the intent of love letters was twofold: first, to develop and deepen the feeling of love between the writer and the recipient and, second, to develop and deepen the relationship between the writer and the recipient. The study shows that while emotions were the focus of the letters from 1756, the relationship was at the fore in the letters from 1858/59. This sheds new light on the importance of sentimentalism in the development of romantic love.
