Sigurd Agrell published six volumes of melancholic and highly stylised poetry between 1903 and 1912, and has since then been largely ignored in 20th century Swedish literary history. His writing shows influences from decadence and symbolism, and his frequent use of the sonnet, as well as other metrical devices, also connects him to an older tradition. In this essay I examine what tradition he belongs to, and in what ways his verse fits in with other writers of the turn of the last century. I analyse poems by Sigurd Agrell in order to identify what themes, motifs and literary techniques he shares with contemopary poets, and in what ways he differs from them. We will see that while Agrell shares many traits with the symbolist movement, he also stands out in certain important respects.

L’enseignement de Lacan s’est appuyé sur Hegel, mais non sans une référence constante à Kierkegaard.Aussi, cette Histoire de la psychanalyse au Danemark s’inaugure par l’œuvre de Kierkegaard comme prolégomènes au discours analytique.La seconde partie -la psychanalyse danoise au XXème siècle- s’ouvre sur l’analyse du compte rendu du premier traitement analytique jamais réalisé au Danemark par Sigurd Næsgaard (1883-1956) au début des années 1930, replacé dans son contexte socio-culturel et politique. Le « transfert négatif » à la psychanalyse s’est d’abord incarné au Danemark en la personne du professeur de psychiatrie August Wimmer (1872-1937), médecin d’envergure dans les institutions médico-légales.Nous avons poursuivi avec l’examen de l’influence de l’analyste danois P.C. Petersen (1889-1976), de Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957) et d’ Oskar Pfister (1873-1956).Dans les années 1950, le Dr Thorkil Vanggaard (1910-1998) donnera à la psychanalyse danoise l’emprunte de l’ego-psychology et parviendra enfin à la reconnaissance de la « Société Psychanalytique Danoise » par l’International Psykoanalytical Association. Dans les années 1970, un regain d’intérêt pour la psychanalyse voit le jour à l’université. Des groupes lacaniens se forment, renouant ainsi avec l’apport kierkegaardien. Jusqu’à la fin du XXème siècle, l’influence de la psychanalyse grandit. Des praticiens sont formés. Sans jamais qu’une chaire de psychanalyse ne soit créée, des enseignements académiques se réfèrent à la psychanalyse. En plus des sociétés de psychanalyse « historiques », de nouvelles voient le jour.Comment se porte la psychanalyse danoise de nos jours (2017) ? C’est la question à laquelle tente de répondre la troisième partie. / Lacan’s teachings relied on Hegel with a repeated reference to Kierkegaard.Furthermore, the History of Psychoanalysis in Denmark starts with Kierkegaard’s work that serves as an introduction to analytical discourse.The second part, entitled Danish Psychoanalysis in the 20th century, opens with the analysis of the report written about the first psychoanalytical treatment ever carried out in Denmark. The treatment, placed in the socio-cultural context of the time, was administered by Sigurd Næsgaard (1883-1956) in the early 1930’s. The « negative transference» surrounding psychoanalysis in Denmark was in large part due to August Wimmer (1872-1937) who was a professor of psychiatry and a renowned physician in medical and legal institutions.We also examined various influences by the Danish analyst P.C. Petersen (1889-1976), Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957), and Oskar Pfister (1873-1956).In the 1950’s, Dr Thorkil Vanggaard (1910-1998) gave Danish psychoanalysis its « ego-psychology » orientation and finally earned the recognition of the Danish Psychoanalytical Society through the International Psykoanalytical Association.In the 1970’s there was renewed interest in psycholoanalysis in academia. Lacanian circles were formed, creating a reconnection to Kierkegaard’s work.The influence of psychoanalysis grew steadily until the end of the 20th century when many therapists were trained. Although no academic chair was ever established, countless academic bodies refer to psychoanalysis. In addition to « historical » psychoanalytical societies, new ones are emerging.How is Danish psychoanalysis doing in 2017? That is the question the third part of this thesis attempts to answer.

The study then focuses on the Bernadotte candidacy as the practical expression of a Norwegian desire for a national monarchy. Reaction to the candidacy is analyzed and, although it proved unsuccessful, the strength of the idea is again evident when the government shifted its focus to the secondary candidacy of Denmark's Prince Carl. During the debate over the candidates for the throne, the underlying theme which developed was the question of Norway's form of government-- monarchy or republic.

This diploma project aims to explore the importance of details and small gestures in architecture.  Whether its a technical detail, a choice of material or a lighting fixture, these seemingly small gestures all influence how we experience a room. It is my belief that these little details, can make a big difference to how we experience our everyday life and that they communicate care and thoughtfulness. What difference does a minor change in material, division of space or a door handle do to the experience of a room as a whole; which are those small gestures that show care and thoughtfulness?  The project has explored details and small gestures in three categories: Division of space, Materiality & Elements, partially though case studies of renowned buildings from architects such as Alvar Aalto, Josef Frank and Sigurd Lewerentz, as well as though the proposal of a redesign of the courthouse of Katrineholm, into a Municipal Archive. The redesign tested small gestures in relationship the room as a whole, to each other and to its surroundings.  “We should work for simple, good, undecorated things, but things which are in harmony with the human being and organically suited to the little man in the street” - Alvar Aalto / Detta examensarbete ämnar utforska vikten av detaljer och små gester inom arkitekturen. Oavsett om det handlar om en teknisk detalj, ett val av material eller en lampa, har de små gesterna inom arkitekturen inflytande på hur vi upplever rum. Det är min övertygelse att de små detaljerna gör en stor skillnad på hur vi upplever vår vardag och att de uttrycker en omtanke för vår omgivning. Vilka detaljer gör mest skillnad för upplevelsen av ett rum och vilka är då dessa små gester som uttycker omtanke och värdighet? Projektet har undersökt detaljer i tre kategorier: Division of space, Materiality och Elements (Rumsindelning, Materialitet & Objekt), dels genom studier av kända byggnader från arkitekterna Alvar Aalto, Josef Frank och sigurd Lewerentz, och dels genom att rita ett förslag på en ombyggnad av Tingshuset i Katrineholm till kommunarkiv. Ombyggnaden har testat olika små gester, som till exempel bord, stenläggningar och dörrhandtag, deras förhållande till varandra och byggnaden som helhet.  “We should work for simple, good, undecorated things, but things which are in harmony with the human being and organically suited to the little man in the street” - Alvar Aalto

De traditionella begravningsplatserna kräver stora ytor. Urbanisering och befolkningsökning gör att detta utrymme inte längre finns att tillgå i tätbebyggda områden. Detta projekt tar sin utgångspunkt i denna problematik och de konsekvenser den fått för de begravningspraktiker som är etablerade i vårat samhälle. Projektets avsikt är att pröva en långsiktig lösning i form av en alternativ begravningspraktik med stadens förutsättningar som utgångspunkt. Detta innebär att jag föreslår ett nytt gravskick, en ny ritual samt visar hur dessa kan gestaltas.  Projektarbetet inleddes med skrivandet av en uppsats där jag undersökte begravningsritualen och den plats där den utövas. Jag utvecklade en modell för att beskriva kopplingen mellan ritualens handlingar och platsens betingelser. Modellen tog sin utgångspunkt i antropologen Arnold van Genneps teorier om begravningsritualer. Modellen användes för att analysera Sigurd Lewerentz förslag till ett kombinerat krematorium och begravningsplats i Helsingborg. Därefter tog en designprocess vid som innebar att jag formgav ett arkitektoniskt lösningsförslag. Under denna process använde jag den modell som utvecklades i uppsatsen som ett redskap för att pröva och motivera mina val.  Resultatet av projektet kan beskrivas som ett förslag på en modifierad minneslund placerad i centrala Stockholm. Av intresse för fortsatt undersökning är dels de problemområden jag identifierat i mötet mellan begravningsplatsen och den urbana kontexten, dels den metod jag använt för att omsätta den teoretiska modellen till fysisk gestaltning. / Traditional cemeteries requires large areas. Urbanization and increased population means that this space is no longer available in urban contexts. This project has its starting point in the aforementioned problem and the consequences it has had for existing burial customs.  The purpose of the project is to examine a long-term solution in the form of an alternative burial practice based on the conditions of the contemporary city. This means that I propose a new burial custom, a new ritual and show how these might staged architectonically.  The project began with the writing of an essay in which I examined the relationship between the burial ritual and its associated space. In order to do this, I developed a model which describes the connection between the ritual act and spatial circumstances. This model is based on the anthropologist Arnold van Genneps theories concerning rituals of passage. It was used to analyze Sigurd Lewerentz proposal for a combined crematorium and cemetery in Helsingborg. I then used the conclusions drawn from the analysis as the basis for a design process which resulted in the architectonic solution proposal. The model was a central tool for verifying and motivating my choices during the design processes.  The result can be described as a modified memorial park placed in central Stockholm. Of interest for further investigation is the problem areas which I have identified in the meeting between the cemetery and the urban context as well as the method I used to translate the theoretical model to physical form.
