1	Alsike convent Nilsson, Lina January 2015 (has links) Alsike convent, located in the countryside between Stockholm and Uppsala, has existed since the 1960’s and has been active as a sanctuary for refugees who are in the process of waiting to get their residence permit or who are paperless, since the 1990’s.The existing convent consists of a group of buildings around a courtyard, located in close connection to a church. The main building is a typical Swedish vernacular, red painted house, with bow windows protruding from the roof. The diploma project is an extension to the convent. A project that lead to an exploration of the landscape, materiality versus abstraction; about the combination of the poetic with the pragmatic. / Aliske kloster är lokaliserat i naturskön miljö mellan Stockholm och Uppsala, och har funnits sedan 1960-taet. Klostret har även sedan 80-talet verkat som ett flyktinghärbärge. Det existerande klostret är inhyst i en traditonell svensk landsbygdstypologi, ett falurött hus som tidigare var en by-skola, brevid klosterbyggnaden finns en medeltida tegel-kyrka. Examensarbetet handlar om en tillbyggnad av det befintliga klostret och handlar om hur det byggda förhåller sig till landskapet. Ääven den ovanliga mixen av arkitektonisk programering som kombinationen av boende, kyrka, flyktinghärbärge och andlig retreat innebär undersöks. Slutligen undersöker arbetet materaliteten och abstraktionen i tegel. Convent Alsike Architecture Arkitektur
2	Arkeologisk landskapsanalys och prospektering av bebyggelselämningar och gravfält vid Alsike hage Sabel, Ellinor January 2006 (has links) <p>This paper deals with archaeological prospecting for the purpose of finding a prehistoric settlement in Alsike hage, Alsike parish, Uppland. The methods being used are soil phosphate analysis, electromagnetic survey and settlement analysis. Two 20x20 meters areas have been prospected. As Alsike hage contains several late Iron Age burial fields, large splendid zones for settlement location, closeness to water as well as farmland there was a hope of locating remains of prehistoric settlement in the area. None of the prospected areas showed any distinct evidence of settlement remains. Still, the results showed anomalies in both areas, both in the electromagnetic survey as in the phosphate analysis. Therefore, the possibility of finding such remains in the two prospected areas cannot be ruled out.</p> archaeology prospecting cemetery Alsike settlement analysis phosphate analysis; Late Iron Age arkeologi prospektering gravfält Alsike landskapsanalys fosfatanalys yngre järnålder Archaeology Arkeologi
3	Dödsgott med käk i kistan : En GCMS- och FTIR-analys av kermik från ett vikingatida gravfält i Alsike hage, Alsike sn, Uppland Forsgren, Andreas January 2007 (has links) <p>This paper deals with the connection between food and burial habits during the late Iron Age in present-day Sweden. The archaeological material used in the study consists of 16 potsherds from a burial site at Alsike hage, Alsike parish, in the province of Uppland in east-central Sweden. On these potsherds have been conducted FTIR- and GCMS-analyses, in order to see what types of food have been deposited in the burials. Furthermore, the result of the GCMS-analyses has been compared to contemporary material from both burial sites and settlement sites, in order to establish whether differences between the compared materials exist. The analyses show that there are differences between the material from burial sites compared with the material from settlement sites, but not any particular differences between the material from different burial sites. Among these differences we can see that the settlement sites show: a higher amount of total lipid content, a higher amount of vessels which contained lipids indicating that food was heated in them, a higher amount of vessels which contained lipids from crop products as the only content, and a higher amount of vessels which contained lipids from ruminant animals. The interpretation of these results is also discussed in the paper. Furthermore, the results of the FTIR-analyses also shows a good correlation with the results from the GCMS-analyses, it seems that the organic “foodcrusts” analysed with FTIR indeed stem from the same meal indicated by the GCMS-analyses.</p> food culture viking age vendel age potsherds GCMS FTIR lipids lipid analys iron age Alsike matkultur vikingatid vendeltid keramik GCMS FTIR lipider lipidanalys järnålder Alsike Archaeology Arkeologi

6	Alsike Kloster : An Ethnographic Study of Spiritual Activism as Daily Life Grafström, Shanti Louise January 2017 (has links) For nearly 40 years, Sister Karin and the nuns at Alsike Kloster have been giving sanctuary to refugees while also taking political, social and legal action to advocate for their rights. Every day they share their home with 60 men, women and children who are fleeing violence, persecution, looming threats and even death. Unlike many activists, the sisters of Alsike Kloster have turned spiritual activism into daily life. In this thesis, I immerse myself in the process of how the community of nuns and refugees do what they do. The purpose of this thesis is to paint an ethnographic portrait and open a window of understanding into the spiritual activism that this community lives as daily life. As I participate in this community of many faiths, many languages, and people from all over the world, I hope to gain an understanding of how they manage to share meals, chores, immigration hearings, birthday parties, fears, joys and sufferings with such cohesion and acceptance. Seeing how these sisters and refugees all live together gives me hope that we can all work for social change in our own small ways. Learning from these sisters how their faith translates into direct loving action for their neighbors from many countries gives me hope that something else is possible. Spiritual activism entails a worldview that resacralizes life which has implications for every aspect of our interconnected global world: not only religions, but also politics, economics, international relations, social awareness and our global responsibility for everything from climate justice to the refugee crisis.
