Skillingsvisene er en av de betydeligste kulturskattene våre forfedre og -mødre har etterlatt seg. Visene ble trykt i skillings- trykk - små, billige sanghefter med en håndfull vers på rim, som sirkulerte i Norge i perioden 1550 til 1950. Disse sangene er den aller eldste trykte litteraturen som fins her til lands, og i flere hundre år var det også den mest populære. Men frem til nå har skillingsvisene langt på vei vært forbigått i forskningen. I denne boken har 17 forskere bidratt til å bringe skillingsvisene frem fra forglemmelsens mørke. Hva handlet skillingsvisene om, hvem skrev dem, hvordan ble de solgt og sunget, og hva betydde de for menneskene som lyttet til dem? Boken belyser emnemangfoldet i skillingsvisene - fra dommedag, naturkatastrofer og mord, til kjærlighet, sladder og skøyteløp. Skillingsvisene i Norge 1550-1950 er den første norske vitenskapelige antologien om skillingstrykk. Den følges av den frittstående antologien Arven fra skillingsvisene. Fra en sal på hospitalet til en sofa fra IKEA av Siv Gøril Brandtzæg og Bjarne Markussen (red.).

"In Intercultural Friendship: The Case of a Palestinian Bedouin and a Dutch Israeli Jew Daniel J.N. Weishut focuses on the interface between interculturality and friendship in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. After a literature study, the author describes the socio-cultural context of his boundary-crossing friendship in the realm of the Israeli occupation and then investigates it through the perspective of Hofstede's cultural dimensions. The tremendous cultural differences as they appear are in line with Hofstede's theory for three of the value orientations but in the field of "uncertainty avoidance" they conflict with the theory. Challenges and opportunities in the friendship, and their implications for personal growth, among others, are illustrated by a series of intriguing stories of friendship"--

This book critically examines multiple ways in which cultural diversity is represented and handled in a variety of contexts, from the artistic to the scientific, from the political to the theatrical, in media, fashion and everyday life, today as well as in the past. By drawing from the observation that specific socio-cultural features are made relevant to create asymmetries and hierarchies between individuals, groups and cultural resources, the volume questions, on the one hand, contingent processes of regulation, standardization, and homogenization of diversity. It points at contradictory processes of in- and exclusion related to the construction of differences between the Self and the Other in processes of doing culture. On the other hand, it recognizes and emphasizes the fluidity of cultural entanglements by adopting a transcultural perspective, which unifies the variety of the topics and of the contexts covered by the chapters, as well as their inter- and transdisciplinarity. While processes such as globalization, decolonization, migration, and mediatization have contributed to place diversity at the centre-stage of both scholarly and non-scholarly debates, this book invites to re-think norms, practices and negotiations of diversity and otherness through a variety of narrations, standardizations, imaginations, and negotiations. By emphasizing the contrast between emancipatory vs. standardizing approaches to diversity and otherness it also invites to "transculturalize" the study and the politics of culture.
