I 1911 skrev Hamsun en begeistret omtale av Johan Turis Muitalus sámiid birra – En bog om lappernes liv (1910), en bok som i dag regnes som en klassiker innen samisk litteratur. I denne nylesningen av Markens grøde (1917) argumenterer jeg for at Hamsuns nobelprisroman kan betraktes som et sideskrift til Turis bok. I likhet med Turis bok om samene er Hamsuns bonderoman en bredt anlagt beskrivelse av ...

Background<p> <p>Food biodiversity, encompassing the variety of plants, animals, and other organisms consumed as food and drink, has intrinsic potential to underpin diverse, nutritious diets and improve Earth system resilience. Dietary species richness (DSR), which is recommended as a crosscutting measure of food biodiversity, has been positively associated with the micronutrient adequacy of diets ...

Career development is a lifelong process that starts in infancy and is shaped by a number of different factors during childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Even though career development is shaped through life, relatively little is known about the predictors of occupational aspirations in childhood. Therefore, in the present work we investigate how the stereotypicality of a mother’s occupation ...

The paper investigates the use of PPs, specifically prepositions and the case marking on their DP arguments, in moribund North American (heritage) Icelandic (NAmIce), using data from a map task experiment. Since prepositional phrases combine semantic properties with morphosyntactic properties, PPs allow us to investigate the relative vulnerability of both domains at once. Our results show that ...

QM/MM calculations of electronic excitations with diffuse basis sets often have large errors due to spill-out of electrons from the quantum subsystem. The Pauli repulsion of the electrons by the environment has to be included to avoid this. We propose transferable atomic all-electron pseudopotentials that can readily be combined with most MM force fields to avoid electron spill-out. QM/MM excitation ...

Terrengsykling er en stadig voksende aktivitet både internasjonalt og nasjonalt. I denne oppgaven har jeg undersøkt problemstillinger knyttet til fremstillinger av kjønnsrepresentasjoner i magasinet ‘Terrengsykkel’. Studien belyser hvordan kjønn blir fremstilt gjennom tekst og bilder i magasinet. Min problemstilling har vært: Hvilke kjønnsrepresentasjoner og betydninger av kjønn utrykkes i magasinet ...

The Norwegian Barents Shelf (NBS) is an Arctic petroleum province with a complex geological history. Current geochemical work on oil discoveries in the region has identified Triassic mudstones as important petroleum source rocks. A review of the published literature found that several source rock-forming processes have been suggested as contributors to their formation. The aim of this thesis is thus ...

While design optimization of buildings seeks to improve energy efficiency and, thus, leads to greenhouse gas emissions reduction, the thermal performance of buildings can be compromised. Thermal performance is an important aspect as it directly affects the health and wellbeing of occupants. This study aims to investigate using a simple simulation tool to examine the correlation between a set of ...

Objectives: To describe risk factors for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) development in a cohort of children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).<p> <p>Methods: JIA patients who developed IBD were identified from the international Pharmachild register. Characteristics were compared between IBD and non-IBD patients and predictors of IBD were determined using multivariable logistic regression ...

Lørdag 18. mai 1805 sto et epitafium signert J. N. Brun på førstesiden av Bergens Adresse-Contoirs Efterretninger, forløperen for Bergens Tidende. Forfatteren var ingen hvem som helst. Foruten å være byens biskop, var Johan Nordahl Brun en betydningsfull politiker og forfatter – essayist, salmedikter, lyriker og dramatiker. Mange av verkene hans synges og leses fremdeles i dag. «Norges Skaal», også ...
