Book excerpt: "Sweden's wealth of folk costumes, which bear witness to the dress styles of the rural population long ago, continues to fascinate us and cause us to reflect on times past. Many people today seek to root their style of dress, their color sense, indeed in many cases their very identity, in tradition and traditional practices. For those involved in folk music or folk dance in Sweden, the old costumes are a natural part of the scene. And abroad, Swedes are constantly asked about the appearance of our folk costumes and whether they are surviving. In this booklet, Ingrid Bergman, PhL and former head of the textile department at Nordiska Museet, briefly familiarizes us with the meaning of the term folk costume in our country."--Sweden Bookshop Website.

Download or read book Iconic Costumes written by Ulla Mannering and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2016-11-30 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly illustrated book presents a selection of the rich and varied iconographic material from the Scandinavian Late Iron Age (AD 400-1050) depicting clothed human figures, from an archaeological textile and clothing perspective. The source material consists of five object categories: gold foils, gold bracteates, helmet plaques, jewelry, and textile tapestries and comprises over 1000 different images of male and female costumes which are then systematically examined in conjunction with our present knowledge of archaeological textiles. In particular, the study explores the question of whether the selected images complement the archaeological clothing sources, through a new analytical tool which enables us to compare and contrast the object categories in regard to material, function, chronology, context and interpretation. The tool is used to record and analyze the numerous details of the iconographic costumes, and to facilitate a clear and easy description. This deliberate use of explicit costume shapes enhances our interpretation and understanding of the Late Iron Age clothing tradition. Thus, the majority of the costumes depicted are identified in the Scandinavian archaeological textile record, demonstrating that the depictions are a reliable source of research for both iconographical costume and archaeological clothing. The book contributes with new information on social, regional and chronological differences in clothing traditions from ca. AD 400 to the Viking Age.

Download or read book Warrior Kings of Sweden written by Gary Dean Peterson and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-08-21 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a hundred years, Sweden was the international military power of Northern Europe, in control of the entire Baltic region and among the first to colonize in Africa and America. But the history of Sweden, Finland, the Baltic States, Poland, and Prussia is largely neglected in American classrooms and scholarship. This book fills a large void in European history as it is generally presented to the American student and reader. This narrative covers Sweden's Age of Greatness (1632-1718) and the warrior-kings who governed that age. It chronologically describes the political and religious events of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and reveals how these events produced the climate for European global expansion, including the exploration and colonization of the New World. The story traces history through the reigns of Sweden's ambitious rulers, beginning with the presumably Swedish Goths who ravaged the Roman Empire in the 2nd century CE and continuing through the end of the empire in the early eighteenth century. A thorough epilogue documents the cultural flowering in the arts and sciences that commenced in the Age of Greatness and continued to blossom in the centuries that followed. This final section of the book pays special attention to the personalities that drove Sweden's far-reaching cultural progress.
