Forsiden af Kuml 2022 prydes af en jernlænke, som arkæologer fra Museet Sønderskov udgravede i 2021 på en mark udenfor landsbyen Fæsted i Sønderjylland. Det usædvanlige fund var på Slots- og Kulturstyrelsens top-10-liste over årets vigtigste arkæologiske fund og er måske et bevis på, at Romerriget har hentet slaver i det såkaldte Barbaricum. I årbogen kan du læse resultaterne fra undersøgelserne af den mulige slavelænke sammen med fem andre spændende artikler om dansk og nordeuropæisk arkæologi. Kuml 2022 indeholder også anmeldelser af væsentlige arkæologiske udgivelser.
Gefjon – Arkæologiske studier og rapporter er et tidsskrift for arkæologiske emner. Vi publicerer bidrag fra hele Danmark og behandler alt fra de ældste perioder til i dag. Bidragene kan være egentlige videnskabelige studier af arkæologiske problemstillinger såvel som rapporter, som i en mere foreløbig form omhandler for eksempel enkeltstående lokaliteter, individuelle genstande, genstandsgrupper og projekter under udvikling. Både studier og rapporter bliver fagfællebedømt efter gældende praksis. Derudover modtager vi også gerne kommentarer og replikker uden for det fagfællebedømte felt. Artiklerne i dette ottende nummer handler om: • Nye undersøgelser af Bromme locus classicus • Bronzestøbning ved Kong Svends Høj • Skoven, der blev ryddet. Bebyggelsesudvikling på Sundeved i perioden yngre germansk jernalder til højmiddelalder • Arkæologi med folket. Borgerinddragelse på arkæologiske udgravninger i Danmark • Sammensmeltet og splittet – to nye gravfund med romersk import fra Sydøstsjælland • Harrested Skovvej − elitært halbyggeri i 500-tallets Sydsjælland • Lune Mølle: En 1200-tals vandmølle i Lejre Ådal
Through a detailed study of the circulation of European silent film in Australasia in the early twentieth century, this book challenges the historical myopia that treats Hollywood films as having always dominated global film culture. Before World War I, European silent feature films were ubiquitous in Australia and New Zealand, teaching Antipodean audiences about Continental cultures and familiarizing them with glamorous European stars, from Asta Nielsen to Emil Jannings. After the rise of Hollywood and then the shift to sound film, this history—and its implications for cross-cultural exchange—was lost. Julie K. Allen recovers that history, with its flamboyant participants, transnational...
Through runic inscriptions and behind the veil of myth, Jesch discovers the true story of viking women.
Jenny Jochens captures in fascinating detail the lives of women in pagan and early Christian Iceland and Norway—their work, sexual behavior, marriage customs, reproductive practices, familial relations, leisure activities, religious practices, and legal constraints and protections. Women in Old Norse Society places particular emphasis on changing sexual mores and the impact of Christianity as imposed by the clergy and Norwegian kings. It also demonstrates the vital role women played in economic production.
In No Great Hurry is a fascinating documentary on one of the twentieth century's most beloved street photographers, Saul Leiter (1923-2013). Leiter--a contemporary of Diane Arbus and Richard Avedon--could have been celebrated as the great pioneer of color photography long ago (his fashion work was published in Harper's Bazaar and Esquire), but he was never driven by the lure of conventional success. Instead he preferred to drink coffee and photograph in his own way, amassing an archive of gorgeous work piled high in his New York City apartment. Intimate and beautifully rendered, In No Great Hurry follows Leiter as he deals with the triple burden of clearing a houseful of memories, becoming world-famous in his eighties, and fending off a pesky filmmaker.
