The article investigates the reception of Carl Snoilsky’s Svenska bilder (Swedish Pictures) in Swedish schools, from the 1890s until today, in the light of the concept of cultural memory. For more than half a century, Snoilsky’s cycle of poems, depicting important events and figures in Sweden’s early modern history, belonged to the literary school canon; three special school editions were publishe
The paper gives examples of industrial adaptive controllers and industrial applications of adaptive control. Adaptive control algorithms are found in single-loop controllers as well as in distributed control systems. Several commercial systems are available today. The given applications are mainly from the process control area. Adaptive control has many good aspects, but it also requires a good un
How does violent conflict affect the spread of Covid-19? In this paper we analyze how violent conflict influences the adoption of preventative measures and infection rate in a very poor, conflict-affected country, Burkina Faso. We use a unique panel of 1,919 households surveyed during the first six months of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and merge these data with indicators of violence at the muniHow does violent conflict affect the spread of Covid-19?

In the early decades of the 17th century, when the idea of the Swedish colony of New Sweden was conceived and realized, America had a vague place in popular consciousness. Knowledge of the new continent was rather limited, and early Swedish images of it were influenced by tales told by foreign travellers and sailors, by pictorial representations in prints and maps, and by news and reports publishe
We consider the two-dimensional problem for steady water waves with vorticity on water of finite depth. While neglecting the effects of surface tension we construct connected families of large amplitude periodic waves approaching a limiting wave, which is either a solitary wave, the highest solitary wave, the highest Stokes wave or a Stokes wave with a breaking profile. In particular, when the vor
In this article I discuss Lacans reading of Plato, especially in the middle seminars. I discuss how to evaluate Lacans understanding of Plato as a philosopher and how this might inspire us in our reading of Plato's works.
