Happy Birthday, Mr. Ulmanis! Reflections on the Construction of an Authoritarian Regime in Latvia
2014
AbstractThe authors of the article analyse the ideology of the authoritarian regime which lasted in Latvia from the coup d'etat on 15 May 1934 until the beginning of the Soviet occupation on 17 June 1940. A variety of sources (newspapers and books of the analysed period) are used for the article. The birthday celebrations of authoritarian leader Kārlis Ulmanis are used as a case study to show the performative elements of the regime. The authors argue that during the short period of authoritarian rule in Latvia, the new political culture known as authoritarianism was widely supported and popular due to the dominance of the performative and festive practices used by the political elite to est…
Succesio ab intestato: Concerning the death of Rodrigo de Mendoza, I Marquis of the Cenete
2017
La muerte de Rodrigo de Mendoza, I marqués del Cenete, sin testamento se vio envuelta de la incertidumbre propia del fallecimiento de un noble con un cuantioso patrimonio heredado en gran parte de su padre, el gran cardenal de España, sin especificar ni repartir y con tres hijas menores huérfanas sin un albacea designado por él. El gobernador general de Valencia, Lluís de Cabanyelles, del círculo más íntimo del marqués durante su estancia en la ciudad del Turia, junto a otros partícipes y testigos, impulsó el proceso de inventariado de todos sus bienes cuatro días después de su defunción, apelando, asimismo, al emperador Carlos V para que confirmase al virrey del reino de Valencia y hermano…

Marriage, sexuality, and holiness: Aspects of marital ethics in the <i>Corpus Paulinum</i>
2011
A fundamental change in the understanding of marriage becomes apparent in the first century A.D., described by M. Foucault as the transition from a “matrimonial” to a “conjugal” marital concept. While early Christianity participated in this development, it also influenced it at decisive points and developed its own marital ethics. Through a consideration of philosophical (Musonius, Plutarch) and early Judaic (esp. Qumran, Jubilees) texts, this article outlines the marital concepts existing in the NT environment. In this context, the reciprocal community and the duration of the marital relationship are emphasized while sexuality remains wholly limited to reproduction. The core of the article…
Blodets lokkende sange. Ida Jacksons Morfar, Hitler og jeg og perpetrator postmemory
2021
Sammendrag Ida Jacksons essay Morfar, Hitler og jeg (2014) indledes med hendes opdagelse af morfarens medskyldighed i nazistiske krigsforbrydelser under 2. verdenskrig. Opdagelsen sætter scenen for Jacksons undersøgelse af morfarens livshistorie under krigen, som har været holdt skjult i familien, og for hendes udforskning af disse begivenheders betydning for hendes eget liv. Morfaren blev traumatiseret af krigen, og Jacksons essay udforsker konsekvenserne af, at morfarens traume er blevet givet videre i flere generationer. Konsekvenserne viser sig i det problematiske i at erindre, men også som en generationel skyld over morfarens handling. Denne skyld er fortsat til stede hos børn og børne…

Jørgen Moe : teolog, prest og biskop
2013
Author's version of an article in the journal: Teologisk Tidsskrift. Also available from the publisher at: http://www.idunn.no/ts/tt/2013/03/joergen_moe_-_teolog_prest_og_biskop Jørgen Moe (1813–1882) is best known for his work as a folklorist, but he was also a poet, pastor and finally bishop in the diocese of Kristiansand. This article examines some of the cultural and theological motivations of his ministerial work, based on poems, sermons and documents from his years as a bishop. The article shows how Moe’s aesthetic and pedagogical interests are reflected in this period and how he influenced Norwegian church life through his pupils J. C. Heuch and Gustav Jensen. - Jørgen Moe (1813–1882…
Libertad religiosa y matrimonio
2019
Nuestra sociedad se caracteriza por ser globalizada, plural y diversa. Ello ha tenido su reflejo en los modelos de celebración del matrimonio que reconoce nuestro ordenamiento, siendo opcional para los contrayentes la elección de su modelo: matrimonio civil regulado por el Código civil, ya sea en forma civil o en las formas religiosas de las confesiones con acuerdo o con notorio arraigo, y el matrimonio canónico. Tomando como punto de partida el marco normativo, el trabajo explica los diversos modelos y la eficacia civil de los matrimonios religiosos. Seguidamente, analiza los desafíos que plantea a nuestra sociedad y derecho algunas cuestiones, como los matrimonios interculturales o interr…
