Not illustrated. 1894 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XII. DR. NANSEN AT HOME. A House is ofttimes the true reflex of its owner's mind. A man naturally surrounds himself with the things that most appeal to his tastes. The books he most loves are on the shelves. If he have travelled, relics from foreign countries surround the room. Should he be musical, his best-loved instrument finds an honoured place. If artistic, the walls will be covered with such art as most appeals to his intelligence. The home necessarily becomes the expression of its owner's tastes. It is an old saying, that "you never know a man till you are married to him," and the words apply equally that "one never knows a man at all until one has seen him in his own home." One must know him in the midst of his household gods, every one of which can unfold a page in the history of its owner's life. Lysaker Station is some half-dozen miles from Christiania. Our little engine, almost enveloped in its snow-plough, had dragged us along slowly, and even to accomplish that short distance had taken nearly twice the allotted time. There, on the platform, awaiting our arrival, stood Dr. Fridtjof Nansen. It was a bitterly cold day--the thermometer registered 9 below zero, Fahr., or 410 of frost--and there he stood without even an overcoat, merely wearing the gray ski uniform which suited his lithesome figure so, well. His hands were enveloped in a pair of the usual Norwegian knitted "baby" gloves, without any fingers, only a thumb. All Northern nations know the advisability of keeping the extremities covered, and consequently always wear gloves, even when fishing! "Welcome, a thousand welcomes to Lysaker!" Nansen said, warmly shaking us by the hand. "But you have brought cold weather with you; I hope you will not suffer from it...".

This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Gamle Norge and Nineteenth-Century British Women Travellers in Norway’ presents an account of the development of tourism in nineteenth-century Norway and considers the ways in which women travellers depicted their travels to the region. Tracing the motivations of various groups of women travellers, such as sportswomen, tourists and aristocrats, this book argues that in their writing, Norway forms a counterpoint to Victorian Britain: a place of freedom and possibility.
Download or read book Crossing Borders in Gender and Culture written by Konrad Gunesch and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-30 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While gender issues are almost always multidimensional and complex, this book discusses them from a cultural angle and with a focus on crossing borders, to represent their concepts meaningfully and to illuminate their realities as sharply as possible. Its five parts detail specific aspects and issues within that focus, namely communication, literary representation, equality and violence, work and politics, and cross-cultural connections. This combination of a wide topical range with specific discussions of gender issues makes the volume’s insights worthwhile for a wide range of readers, from individuals and groups engaging with current gender challenges, to institutional and political decision-makers entrusted with improving gender relations on national or international levels, up to social, economic or educational institutions empowered to implement such solutions in everyday reality. Its “unity in diversity” contributes to gender and cultural studies by offering considerations and conclusions that are specific and generalizable, theoretically robust and empirically tested, professionally rational and poetically ravishing.
