| ARTICLES RELATED TO Uppsala | | | | |  Uppsala: Encyclopedia II - History of swimming - Middle Ages to 1800Swimming was initially one of the seven agilities of knights during the Middle Ages, including swimming with armour. However, as swimming was done in a state of undress, it became less popular as society became more conservative, and it was opposed by the church at the end of the Middle Ages. For example, in the 16th century, a German court document in the Vechta prohibited the naked public swimming of ch ...

| | | | | | Uppsala: Encyclopedia II - Michel Foucault - Foucault's changing viewpoint The study of Foucault's thought is complicated because his ideas developed and changed over time. His ideas are best understood as different (but related) bodies of thought associated with each of his different major publications. Thus the Foucault who wrote Madness and Civilisation (1961) did not have quite the same set of ideas as the Foucault who wrote The Archaeology of Knowledge (1969); and the Foucault who wrote The History of Sexuality (1976-84) had develope ...

| | | | | Uppsala: Encyclopedia II - Michel Foucault - Criticisms of Foucault Many thinkers have criticized Foucault, ranging from Charles Taylor, Noam Chomsky, Camille Paglia, Jürgen Habermas, Jacques Derrida, and Nancy Fraser to Slavoj Žižek and historian Hayden White, among others. While each of them takes issue with different aspects of Foucault's work, all of these approaches share the same basic orientation: Foucault clearly seems to reject the liberal values and philosophy associated with the Enlightenment while simultaneously secretly relying on them. They argue that this failure either makes him dangerously nihilistic, or that he cannot be taken seriously in his disavowal of normative ...

| | | | | Uppsala: Encyclopedia II - Michel Foucault - Biography Foucault resisted biography on the grounds that he was both a constantly evolving personality and that publicly he exists through his work. Of this he wrote "Do not ask me who I am and do not ask me to remain the same."
Michel Foucault - Early life.
Foucault was born in 1926 in Poitiers as Paul-Michel Foucault to a notable provincial family. His father, Paul Foucault, was an eminent surgeon and hoped his son would join him in the profession. Foucault later dropped 'Paul' from his name for reasons wh ...

| | | | | Uppsala: Encyclopedia II - Minneapolis Minnesota - Demographics Minnesota has historically been a home to Scandinavian and German immigrants. Scandinavians (mostly Norwegians and Swedes) tended to settle in the colder, forested north, and Germans often resided in the relatively warmer rolling hills of the south. Minneapolis sits between these two regions and thus has large populations of people of German and Scandinavian descent.
During the great wave of Eastern European immigration in the 1870s through the early 20th Century, many immigrants from Poland, the Baltic States, and Russia, as well as ...

| | | | | Uppsala: Encyclopedia II - Ingjald - Youth The Heimskringla relates that the viceroy of Fjädrundaland was named Ingvar and he had two sons, Alf and Agnar, who were of the same age as Ingjald. Svipdag the Blind was the viceroy of Tiundaland, the province of Uppsala where the Tings and the Yule (Midwinter) sacrifices were held and (see the Temple at Uppsala).
One Midwinter, when Ingjald and Alf were six years old, many people had assembled at Uppsala for the sacrifices. Alf and Ingjald played, but Ingjald found that he was the weaker boy and became so angry that he almost start ...

They soon found the scattered and gory remains of the crewmen, who had been slaughtered by the twelve beserkers. Orvar-Odd immediately went to the forest and cut himself a huge club (according to Saxo, he took a rudder), whereupon the two companions continued their search for the twelve brothers.
Orvar-Odd who wore a silken mailcoat which nothing could pierce (cf. mithril) offered to take on Angantyr who wiel ...

| | | | | Uppsala: Encyclopedia II - Götaland theory - Conclusions Naturally, to hold any view at all regarding the existence, first, and the location, second, of these ancient places of cult and religion, one has to be very well read of the actual historical sources, and of the findings in archeological and linguistic science being conducted over the years.
From a scientific viewpoint, the content of old myths and sagas cannot be held as historically valid sources. For one thing, they are written down centuries after they are supposed to have happened, following oral traditions that at best have add ...

| | | | | Uppsala: Encyclopedia II - Götaland theory - Advocates Amongst its advocates may be mentioned Pehr Tham, from 1811 a member of Götiska förbundet who during the 19th century unsuccessfully tried to promote the view that the village Sätuna in Västergötland should have represented Old Sigtuna, and that the town of Birka related in ancient sources also were located in Västergötland, most likely by Lake Hornborgasjön. He is often denoted as "the last of the Rudbeckians".
Another enthusiast was the very thorough Carl-Otto Fast—the one that forced the proof of the well in Gamla ...

| | | | | Uppsala: Encyclopedia II - Freyr - Heimskringla Snorri Sturluson's starts his epic history of the kings of Norway with Ynglingasaga, a euhemerized account of the Norse gods. Here Odin and the Æsir are men from Asia who gain power through their prowess in war and Odin's skills. But when Odin attacks the Vanir he bites off more than he can chew and peace is negotiated after a destructive and undecisive war. Hostages are exchanged to seal the peace deal and the Vanir send Freyr and Njörðr to live with the Æsir. At this point the saga, like Lokasenna, mentions that ...
