Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article is a microhistorical study of the life of Marcellin Robert, a craftsman's son who came to Sweden from rural France and became one of the greatest smugglers in late eighteenth-century Sweden. Through his transgressions of the law and his connections at court, he was able to navigate the ever-harshening import legislation to become an important conveyor of French fashion in Sweden. As revolution swept France, Robert maintained close links to his native country and was able to provide uninterrupted access to French goods when most other channels closed. Robert's case illustrates the possibilities available to a maverick intermediary in the changing European landscape of the late eighteenth century. It also shows the crucial role such individuals could play in side-stepping official legislation and in realising the cosmopolitan aristocratic lifestyle in a protectionist nation like Sweden.

- Résumé : Est-ce qu’à l’époque moderne un port militaire pouvait être considéré comme un cas particulier, comme une ville différente des autres ? Cet article montre, à partir de l’exemple de Karlskrona en Suède, qu’un port militaire européen à la fin du XVIIe siècle et au début du XVIIIe siècle devient ce qui peut être qualifié de « plateforme », au sein de laquelle les anciennes manières de penser et d’agir sont confrontées à une situation nouvelle. La dynamique de cette confrontation est la volonté de la Suède de devenir une puissance de premier plan en Baltique. En raison de ces ambitions militaires, les méthodes de production et le contrôle les maladies sont l’objet de nouvelles attentes. Pour atteindre ses objectifs, la Suède doit se doter d’un état militaire puissant qui s’appuie sur des réseaux marchands baltiques éprouvés. Ils sont contrôlés par des négociants qui doivent eux-mêmes être intégrés au projet général au moyen de négociations. C’est d’autant plus difficile que le succès final repose sur la fondation d’un port militaire dans une région récemment conquise sur le Danemark. L’ampleur des ambitions suédoises ressort des plans élaborés par la nouvelle ville construite sur un groupe d’îles inhabitées tout au sud-est du pays, ce qui impose un déplacement important d’habitants ainsi que la création d’un port militaire et d’un chantier naval. Tous ces éléments réunis créent un environnement favorable à de nouveaux échanges et à l’élaboration de nouvelles solutions.

Histoire du climat du Royaume de Suède à l’époque modern : [Climate hisotry of the early modern Swedish Realm]
- 2018

Ingår i: Revue d’Histoire Nordique. - 1778-9605. ; 27, s. 201-226

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this article, we assess the scholarship of climate history in the former Swedish Realm (roughly, present-day Sweden, Finland, and Estonia) during the early modern period. Climate history research has primarily focused on consequences of climate change and variability on human history, but also on producing documentary-based reconstructions of past climate. Recent advances in palaeo-climatology, in particular dendroclimatology, during the past two to three decades, have made it possible to study climate impacts on early modern history. However, while the field of climate history has developed substantially in much of Europe, it remains rather underdeveloped and has drawn limited intetest in the Nordic countries. Apart from some recent studies for Finland, the climate history of the former Swedish Realm falls short of the standards of the field in contemporary European scholarship. Existing scholarship has nevertheless demonstrated the link between cold springs and summers and poor harvests, particuiar in Finland, but few studies have assessed the effects of climate on society outside of periods of severe food shortage or famines. The article concludes with outlines and reflections for future scholarship in climate history of the early modern Swedish Realm.

Defending one’s rights. Aspects of Violence, Honor and Gender in Swedish Medieval Laws
- 2007
-
Ingår i: Revue d'histoire nordique / Nordic historical review. - 1778-9605. ; :4
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The article follows the research of Claude Gauvard, who argues that medieval violence was not a marginal phenomenon, but on the contrary defined social relationships, identities, and hierarchies. The first part of the article, based on a study of law codes understood as sources of ideology and mentality, confirms that masculin honour was based on the need to physcially respond to offenses, while feminine honor was based on the need to defend the pure nature of a woman’s sexuality, with the former thus as active and the second passive. The author nuances, however, this traditional approach by highlighting the fact that in certain cases, women were allowed to use force to defend their physical integrity or to take revenge, but without being able to fully adopt the masculine system of honour because their rights were more limited and they depended on their status as spouses.Thus, women had a contradictory and ambiguous status in medieval Swedish law codes.At the end of the 14th century, the Church and the king sought to reduce the right to vengeance and to change the concept of honour.
