[English description below] Under 1880-talet blev nordiska kvinnliga konstnärer alltmer synliga på konstscenen, samtidigt som de verkade inom en nästan uteslutande manlig sfär. Paris blev deras konstnärliga centrum, där de byggde sina egna nätverk, ställde ut sina verk, blev eftertraktade konstnärer och fick kritiskt erkännande för sitt arbete.   Genom fördjupade analyser av utvalda målningar utforskar Becoming Artists hur nordiska kvinnliga målare presenterade sig själva och varandra i sina yrkesroller, hur de lanserade sina verk, övervann hinder och skrev in sig i konsthistorien. Den belyser vänskapens, gemenskapens och samarbetets inverkan på kvinnornas själviscensättning och studerar ateljéns symboliska betydelse som ett eget rum. Avhandlingen bygger på omfattande opublicerade arkivkällor och erbjuder nya perspektiv på konstnärer som Julia Beck, Hanna Hirsch-Pauli, Asta Nørregaard och Bertha Wegmann.   Carina Rech är konsthistoriker, baserad i Stockholm och Berlin. Hon är forskare vid Stockholms universitet och kurator vid konstmuseet Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde. Becoming Artists är hennes doktorsavhandling. The 1880s were a decade of professionalization, liberation and transnational encounters for women artists from the Nordic countries. Despite structural discrimination, a growing number of women from Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden pursued professional careers as artists, studying at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm or at private art schools. Many of them traveled to Germany or France to train at private ateliers. In the 1880s, Paris was their artistic center, where they built their own networks, exhibited frequently, became sought-after artists and gained critical recognition for their work. Conducting in-depth analyses of selected paintings, Becoming Artists explores how Nordic women painters represented themselves and one another in their professional roles, how they promoted their work, how they overcame obstacles and inscribed themselves into the visual history of their profession. It highlights the impact of friendship, companionship and collaboration on Nordic women painters self-fashioning in the 1880s and it examines the studio s symbolic meaning as a room of one s own. Drawing extensively on hitherto unpublished archival sources, this study offers new perspectives on artists including Julia Beck, Hanna Hirsch-Pauli, Asta Nørregaard and Bertha Wegmann.  Carina Rech is an art historian based in Stockholm and Berlin. She is a researcher at Stockholm University and a curator at the art museum Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde. Becoming Artists is her doctoral dissertation. [för svensk presentation, se ovan]

"An illuminating account of how Franklin D. Roosevelt's struggles with polio steeled him for the great struggles of the Depression and of World War II."-Jon Meacham "A valuable book for anyone who wants to know how adversity shapes character. By understanding how FDR became a deeper and more empathetic person, we can nurture those traits in ourselves and learn from the challenges we all face."-Walter Isaacson, bestselling author of Steve Jobs and Leonardo Da Vinci In popular memory, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the quintessential political "natural." Born in 1882 to a wealthy, influential family and blessed with an abundance of charm and charisma, he seemed destined for high office. Yet for all his gifts, the young Roosevelt nonetheless lacked depth, empathy, and an ability to think strategically. Those qualities, so essential to his success as president, were skills he acquired during his seven-year journey through illness and recovery. Becoming FDR traces the riveting story of the struggle that forged Roosevelt's character and political ascent. Soon after contracting polio in 1921 at the age of thirty-nine, the former failed vice-presidential candidate was left paralyzed from the waist down. He spent much of the next decade trying to rehabilitate his body and adapt to the stark new reality of his life. By the time he reemerged on the national stage in 1928 as the Democratic candidate for governor of New York, his character and his abilities had been transformed. He had become compassionate and shrewd by necessity, tailoring his speeches to inspire listeners and to reach them through a new medium-radio. Suffering cemented his bond with those he once famously called "the forgotten man." Most crucially, he had discovered how to find hope in a seemingly hopeless situation-a skill that he employed to motivate Americans through the Great Depression and World War II. The polio years were transformative, too, for the marriage of Franklin and Eleanor, and for Eleanor herself, who became, at first reluctantly, her husband's surrogate at public events, and who grew to become a political and humanitarian force in her own right. Tracing the physical, political, and personal evolution of the iconic president, Becoming FDR shows how adversity can lead to greatness, and to the power to remake the world.

It can be argued that elements of European heritage can be identified not only as a national strategy of the present but also as a process in prehistory - the cultural and political transformations of the third millennium BC in European prehistory sparking off this process. These transformations initiated the processes and mechanisms that led up to the complex political, social and cultural institutions of the first half of the second millennium BC. From this time on, an authentic historical continuum leading towards present-day society can be identified. The papers in this anthology provide an up-to-date survey of trends in Bell Beaker research, with a focus on western and northern Europe, as well as developments in the northern and eastern Scandinavian and Baltic regions. The geographical focus, along with the interpretative perspective, hopefully demonstrates some of the progress in understanding the histories of third millennium Europe.

V1984: Becoming N(one) [Vinyl 12"]

Excavations carried out from 1984-1985 at Ditches in Gloucestershire identified a large, late Iron Age enclosure which contained a remarkably early Roman villa. This long awaited excavation report reinterprets this evidence in the light of more recent studies of the late Iron Age-Roman transition. It extends our understanding of the Ditches-Bagendon-Cirencester oppida complex, and corroborates the latest thinking on the nature of Romanisation. New conceptions are challenging the significance of the Claudian invasion of AD 43, suggesting that Roman political influence in southern Britain was much more important than commonly thought decades before this. The Roman takeover was a long drawn-out process, which began especially with intimate links between Caesar and his successors and the dynasts they supported or implanted in Britain on the other. High status archaeological sites are central to these relations, including the so-called oppida , developed in southern Britain in the decades between Caesar's raids and the Claudian occupation. Ditches provides further corroborative evidence. Several phases of Romano-British building were uncovered, revealing an unusual sequence of development for a villa in the region and representing an exceptionally early villa beyond southeast England. Discoveries included a well-preserved cellar and a range of finds, including Gallo-Belgic wares, Iron Age coins, coin moulds, Venus figurines and brooches indicating high-status occupation. The form and date of the villa also provides evidence of connections between the late Iron Age elites and communities of southern England and Gaul. Further evidence suggests the villa was abandoned in the later second century AD, emphasizing the unusual sequence of the site.

A radically thought-provoking account of a major shift in how we understand our Earth, not simply as an inanimate planet on which life evolved, but rather as a planet that came to life, from the heart of the Amazon rainforest to the soil in our gardens.'A glorious paean to our living world, full of achingly beautiful passages, mind-bending conceptual twists, and wonderful characters. Ferris Jabr reveals how Earth not only gave rise to life, and now teems with it, but has also been profoundly, miraculously shaped by it.' - Ed Yong, author of An Immense World, winner of the Royal Society Science Book Prize'I did not expect to experience joy when I opened Becoming Earth, but I did, and I do. The ambition, eloquence, and erudition in this dragonfly droneflight of a book are absolutely exhilarating.' - John Vaillant, author of Fire Weather, winner of the Baillie Gifford PrizeThe notion of a living world is one of humanity's oldest beliefs. Though once scorned by many scientists, the concept of Earth as a vast interconnected living system has gained acceptance in recent decades. Life not only adapts to its surroundings - it also shapes them in dramatic and enduring ways. Over billions of years, life transformed a lump of orbiting rock into our cosmic oasis, breathing oxygen into the atmosphere, concocting the modern oceans, and turning rock into fertile soil. Life is intertwined with Earth's capacity to regulate its climate and maintain balance.Through compelling narrative, evocative descriptions, and lucid explanations, Ferris Jabr shows us how Earth became the world we've known, how it is rapidly becoming a very different world, and how we will determine what kind of Earth our descendants inherit for millennia to come.'Fascinating, thought-provoking, and, ultimately, inspiring' - Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction
