Women are contributing to disciplines once the sole domain of men. Field biology has been no different. The history of women field biologists, embedded in a history largely made and recorded by men, has never been written. Compilations of biographies have been assembled, but the narrative—their story—has never been told. In part, this is because many expressed their passion for nature as writers, artists, collectors, and educators during eras when women were excluded from the male-centric world of natural history and science. The history of women field biologists is intertwined with men’s changing views of female intellect and with increasing educational opportunities available to wome...

Drottning utan land: Kristina i Rom

E-boksutgåvan innehåller inga bilder. Som 27-åring hade drottning Kristina lämnat tronen i stormakten Sverige. Kristina angav som skäl att riket behövde en man som kunde föra trupper i fält, men själv hade hon sagt till riksrådet att hon inte ville gifta sig. På julafton 1654 avsade hon sig sin lutherska tro i en privat ceremoni i slottskapellet i Bryssel. Omvändelsen till katolicismen gjorde henne ännu mer uppmärksammad i Europa – hyllad i den katolska världen och förtalad i den lutherska. När Kristina kom till Paris stod 200 000 människor på gatorna för att få en skymt av den svenska drottningen i septemberskymningen. Någon politisk makt hade hon inte kvar. Däremot hade hon sin kunglighet. Vad ger ytterst legitimitet att härska - rollen som regent eller börden, det faktum att hon fötts till drottning? Och vad innebar det att hon hade avsagt sig sin roll, men ändå fortsatte att hänvisa till sin börd för sina politiska motiv och intressen, vilka nu enbart var hennes personliga?
