Furthermore, the thesis aims to show whether any identities are addressed in the newspaper articles. The thesis aims to explore if the newspapers politics were decisive for which identity was addressed, and if different identities were addressed because of politics in the newspapers. Robert M Entman wrote aboute framing and his thoughts are important to the thesis´s method and theory.

The newspapers which is used in the thesis is Svenska Amerikanaren, Svea, Svenska Tribunen, Svenska Folkets Tidning, Svenska Amerikanska Posten, Svenska tribunen-nyheter, Svenska Monitoren, Alarm and Svenska Socialisten.

Vidare ska uppsatsen undersöka om några patriotiska eller nationalistiska identiteter gestaltas eller tilltalas i tidnigarna. Uppsatsen undersöker om de svenskspråkiga tidningarnas politiska tendenser påverkar gestaltningen av den obligatoriska värnplikten och om skilda patriotiska identiteter tilltalas på grund av tidningarnas politiska tendens. Robert M Entmans tankar kring gestaltning är viktiga för uppsatsens metod och teori. Entmans fyra koder Promote a particular problem definition, causal interpretation, moral evaluation och treatment recommendation används i uppsatsens analysdel. De svenskspråkiga tidningarna som används som källmaterial i uppsatsen är Svenska Amerikanaren, Svea, Svenska Tribunen, Svenska Folkets Tidning, Svenska Amerikanska Posten, Svenska tribunen-nyheter, Svenska Monitoren, Alarm och Svenska Socialisten. Uppsatsens resultat visar hur två olika gestaltningar synligörs i de svenskspråkiga tidningar som undersöks. Både gestaltningar av den obligatoriska värnplikten är patriotiska mot landet de svenska emigranterna har emigrerat till men de två gestaltningarna har olika åsikter gällande hur svensk-amerikanerna bör agera gällande obligatorisk värnplikt för att vara patriotisk mot det nya fosterlandet. En gestaltning talar om hur demokratin och freden måste skyddas genom att göra motstånd mot den obligatoriska värnplikten som anses vara odemokratisk. Den andra gestaltningen talar om att skydda demokratin och svensk-amerikanernas ära genom att medverka och stödja den obligatoriska värnplikten. Två patriotiska identiteter tilltalas av gestaltningen i den svenskspråkiga tidningarna i USA 1917. De kallas i denna uppsats "Lojalitet mot demokrati och det nya fosterlandet" och "Slå vakt om demokratin". Den första patriotiska identiteten tilltalas genom gestaltning i den liberala, borgliga och högervridna tidningarna medan de socialistiska tidningarna tilltalar den andra patriotiska identiteten genom sin gestaltning av obligatorisk värnplikt.

In 19th century Sweden women preached in the popular revival movements as they did in the other Nordic countries, in Great Britain and the United States. One of the most famous preachers in Sweden was Nelly Hall (1848–1916). Internal and external evidence of her public life is the main focus of the study, and in this way it seeks to uncover the origin of her inspiration and to specify her connection to the spiritual movements of the time, at the same time that it analyses the reception and the debate of women as preachers in the period when she was active. Nelly Hall studied at the Royal School for Women’s Higher Teacher Education and worked as a teacher for ten years before she decided to enter into the ministry of preaching. She was influenced by the Anglo-American Holiness movement and had close contacts with the Salvation Army in London. From 1883 she travelled in the southern parts of Sweden. Thousands of people listened to her and as part of her ministry she practised faith healing. She went on preaching tours to Finland, Norway, Germany and the United States. When the Swedish Holiness Mission started as a small mission society in 1887 it was to some extent a result of the preaching work carried out by Nelly Hall. She was elected a member of the first board and worked as a mission secretary for ten years. Around 1900 there was a shift in her theological thinking and she became more absorbed by apocalyptic ideas. In 1901 she went for the second time to the United States and lived there until 1916 when she died in Brockton, Massachusetts. Little is known about the last fifteenth years of her life. The ministry of Nelly Hall and other women raised considerable public interest and in the Swedish context her time of ministry coincided with the emerging movement for the emancipation of women. Many were against women preaching in public and the discussions often occurred in the press. Parts of these discussions as well as several pamphlets in favour of women’s preaching are analysed in this study. / <p>Contains a summary in English</p>
