Book Synopsis Finland and Europe by : Juhani Paasivirta
Download or read book Finland and Europe written by Juhani Paasivirta and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 1962-02-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finland and Europe was first published in 1982. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. In 1808 the Grand Duchy of Finland, part of the Swedish kingdom since the thirteenth century, was invaded and in 1809 annexed by Russia -- events which took place within the context of the Napoleonic wars but whose significance was obscure to most Finns and to the outside world as well. During the nineteenth century Finnish national identity grew and Finland began to play a role in European politics. This book traces the course of Finnish involvement in European affairs from the time when it became an autonomous Grand Duchy within the Russian Empire down to the First World War. Juhani Paasivirta's analysis is centered upon eleven international crises, including the Russian annexation of Finland, the fall of Napoleon, two revolutions in Poland, the revolutions of 1848, the Franco-Prussian War and the Paris Commune, the Russo-Turkish and Russo-Japanese wars, and the outbreak of the First World War. Paasivirta writes from two vantage points: he records the reactions to these events in Finland, across a broad social and economic spectrum, and the attitudes towards the 'Finnish situation' in Sweden, England, France, and Germany. Finland's relationship with Russia, and her necessarily realistic regard for the security of the Russian Empire were important matters faced by Finnish leaders; Paasivirta shows how this delicate relation collapsed, making way for a course that led to Finnish independence in 1917.

Book Synopsis An Armchair Traveller's History of Finland by : Jonathan Clements
Download or read book An Armchair Traveller's History of Finland written by Jonathan Clements and published by Haus Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the American mind, Finland is often swept up in the general group of Nordic countries, little known and seldom gaining prominence on its own. But as Jonathan Clements shows in An Armchair Traveller’s History of Finland, it has a long and fascinating history, one that offers oddities and excitements galore: from prehistoric herders to medieval lords, Christian martyrs and Viking kings, and the war heroes who held off the Soviet Union against long odds. Clements travels the length of the country as he tells these stories, along the way offering accounts of Finland’s public artworks, literary giants, legends and folktales, and famous figures. The result is the perfect introduction to Finland for armchair and actual travelers alike.

Download or read book Representations of the North in Victorian Travel Literature written by Dimitrios Kassis and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-05 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel literature has always been associated with the construction of utopias which were founded on the idea of unknown lands. During their journeys in foreign lands, British travellers tended to formulate various critical opinions based on their background knowledge of the country visited. Their attempts to interpret other nations were often misinterpretations of the peoples in question as the Other. At the close of the eighteenth century, when Grand Tourism started to fade away and travelling became a mainstream activity for the middle-class Briton, travel writers attempted to identify with.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finland celebrated its 85th year of independence in 2002. It is one of the thirteen countries of the world that have preserved their democracy uninterrupted since the First World War. Despite its modest origins and difficult wartime experiences, this dynamic country is now a world leader in many spheres. In 2001 it was named the world's most technologically advanced and also the least corrupt country. Other studies have shown it to have one of the three most competitive economies, the best environmental sustainability, and the second most equal society. Such rapid development has increased the need for information about Finland and what can be learned from its unique experience. This book offers an introduction to the country today, focusing on the most recent research into its politics, policies, and society, viewed in a comparative context. Dynamic Finland has been written for a general audience by two eminent scholars. Pertti Pesonen has been professor of political science in Tampere and Helsinki and at several American universities, and is also the former editor-in-chief of the Aamulehti daily and past chairman of the Finnish Academy of Science and Letters. Olavi Riihinen served for 24 years as professor of social policy and Chairman of the Department of Social Policy at the University of Helsinki.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'Thirteen Years of a Busy Woman's Life' by Mrs. Alec-Tweedie, the reader is taken on a captivating journey through the daily life and experiences of a woman in the late 19th century. The book is written in a detailed and descriptive style, providing insight into the challenges and triumphs of a woman navigating societal expectations and personal ambitions. Through anecdotes and observations, the author offers a unique perspective on the role of women during this period, shedding light on both the limitations and opportunities they faced. The book's literary context is rooted in the tradition of memoirs and autobiographies, offering a firsthand account of a lesser-known aspect of history.

Her keen observations and eloquent prose reflect her deep understanding of the intricacies of women's lives in the 19th century. This book serves as a valuable contribution to the literature on women's history and provides a rare glimpse into the daily struggles and joys of a busy woman. I highly recommend 'Thirteen Years of a Busy Woman's Life' to readers interested in women's history, memoirs, and 19th-century literature.

Book Synopsis Crossing Borders in Gender and Culture by : Konrad Gunesch
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.
