Abstract The Tune runestone preserves one of the most important older runic inscriptions. Yet two main interpretations have been proposed for the text on side B of the early Norwegian memorial. The more recent interpretation relies on the existence of a Proto-Germanic fabricatory verb *dālijaną that is not attested otherwise. Side B also features a superlative adjective featuring the ending -jōstēz whose root has equally been the subject of a range of unlikely proposals. The early runic verb dalidun is most plausibly taken as reflecting a loan of *dāl-, the Celtic reflection of the Indo-European verbal root *deh1(i̯)- ‘to divide’, while the superlative appears to be most obviously comparable to Gothic sinistans ‘elders’.

Zusammenfassung Friedrich Leopold Graf zu Stolberg (1750-1819) grew up in Copenhagen when the circle of literati and scholars around Johann Hartwig Bernstorff was effective there. Klopstock was a family friend and later a mentor to the young count, and Stolberg was also well acquainted with other members of the Copenhagen Circle. He wrote his first poems as a teenager, in 1772 he became a member in the Göttinger Hainbund, and he also had close contact with representatives of the Sturm und Drang. The essay asks about the connection between the Copenhagen Circle and Stolberg’s early work (until about 1780). It focuses on the themes of freedom, fatherland and nature. Can Stolberg’s writing be understood as a result or further development of the cultural effectiveness of the Copenhagen Circle – or as a reaction to it?

Zusammenfassung Taking the example of the “Kopenhagener Kreis”, “Deutscher Kreis” or “Klopstock-Kreis”, the article examines to which extent the international network at the Danish royal court played a relevant role in German-language literary history at the middle of the 18th century. From the early 19th to the 21st century German-language literary historiography has rarely taken into account the cooperation and mutual exchange between German and Danish intellectuals and writers but instead has focused on Klopstock himself and his significance for German literature. Rather than revising the narrative, the one-sided reconstruction of this chapter of German-Danish literary history is still being upheld in contemporary descriptions. Apart from a few exceptions, global literary historiography also clearly reveals this tendency. The article advocates a reassessment of the German-Danish circle in Copenhagen in order to recognize its particular relevance as an example of productive transcultural exchange.

Abstract Inspired by contemporary urban sociology and spatial theory this article explores how Jan Sonnergaard in his novel Frysende våde vejbaner (2015) depicts and criticizes the gentrification of Copenhagen. I argue that Sonnergaard, through the main protagonist Jesper, demonstrates a double perception of the gentrified city, respectively an ‘excluded’ and an ‘included’ variant. Through this technique Sonnergaard firstly explores how the city has become a ‘non-place’ for those who do not have the capacities to participate in the new urban middleclass-culture and secondly what kind of social mechanisms that are at play within the same urban middleclass. The article concludes with a discussion of how the main character Jesper may also be ignorant of his own role as gentrifier due to his self-image as an urban bohemian, his idolizing of countercultural music and fiction, and his ownership of a flat in a housing cooperative.
受当代城市社会学和空间理论的启发,本文探讨了Jan Sonnergaard在他的小说《Frysende v de vejbaner》(2015)中如何描述和批评哥本哈根的中产阶级化。我认为sonnergard通过主角Jesper展示了对中产阶级化城市的双重感知,分别是“被排除”和“被包含”的变体。通过这种技术,sonnerggaard首先探讨了城市如何成为那些没有能力参与新城市中产阶级文化的人的“非场所”,其次,在同一个城市中产阶级中,有什么样的社会机制在起作用。文章最后讨论了主人公Jesper是如何由于他作为城市波西米亚人的自我形象,他对反文化音乐和小说的崇拜,以及他在住房合作社拥有一套公寓而忽视了自己作为绅士的角色。

Abstract For two decades Copenhagen was a cultural powerhouse in European Enlightenment due to the so-called German Circle in Copenhagen (1750–1770) initiated by King Frederik V. and J. H. E. Bernstorff. The article examines the description of the German Circle in Danish literary history through three major phases: from early Enlightenment through the 19th Century and up until today’s European and global histories. The historiographic survey shows a decreasing interest in representing this cultural and intellectual group as a centre of a European transfer between English, Scandinavian and German literature. Instead, attention is paid to Klopstock and Johannes Ewald as key figures in the transition to a modern poetry. In general, Danish literary histories display a fear of German cultural colonization and anxieties about the status of Danish as a minor language. In current historiography, the German Circle seems to have disappeared and might be at the brink of fading into cultural oblivion.
摘要二十年来,哥本哈根一直是欧洲启蒙运动中的文化强国,这得益于弗雷德里克五世和J发起的所谓哥本哈根德国圈(1750-1770)。 H E.Bernstorff。本文通过三个主要阶段考察了丹麦文学史上对德国圈的描述:从启蒙运动早期到19世纪,直到今天的欧洲和全球历史。历史调查显示,人们对将这一文化和知识群体作为欧洲英国、斯堪的纳维亚和德国文学之间转移的中心越来越感兴趣。相反,人们关注克洛普斯托克和约翰内斯·埃瓦尔德,他们是向现代诗歌过渡的关键人物。总的来说,丹麦文学史表现出对德国文化殖民的恐惧,以及对丹麦语作为次要语言地位的焦虑。在当前的史学中,德国圈似乎已经消失,并可能处于文化遗忘的边缘。
