Anders Toftgaard: Mapping a collection. What the catalogue records can tell us about Otto Thott’s manuscript collection and about manuscript cataloguing.
This article deals with the manuscript collection of Count Otto Thott (1703-1785) and with manuscript cataloguing. Otto Thott was the single greatest private book collector in the history of Denmark and of inestimable importance for the Royal Danish Library, since he bequeathed his collection of manuscripts (4154 catalogue numbers) and books printed before 1531 (6059 catalogue numbers) to the Royal Library. In the manuscript collection, the inclusion of his collection marks the division between the Old Royal Collection (GKS) and the New Royal Collection (NKS). Many of the treasures in the rare books collection come from his library, and his definition of paleotypes (books printed before 1531) has (in the 20th c.) determined the definition of the collection of post-incunabula. Otto Thott did not write owners’ marks or notes in his books and he left very little archival material concerning the ways in which he created his library. Regrettably, the literary correspondence mentioned in his will has not survived. The article analyses a data set consisting of all catalogue records (in MARC format) concerning manuscripts from Otto Thott’s manuscript collection. These catalogue records in the library system derive from the catalogue made by Rasmus Nyerup (excluding oriental manuscripts) and published in 1795. When, towards the end of the 19th centrury, the alphabetical and the systematical catalogues of the collection of western manuscripts were produced, the entries in Nyerup’s catalogue were copied by hand without being revised. After the IT revolution, when the catalogue records of the systematical catalogue were transferred to a digital database of records, these records were copied once again without revision. It is shown what kind of errors from the catalogue of 1795 were still present in the on line catalogue in 2019. The quantitative analysis shows that the bulk of the manuscripts in Thott’s manuscript collection are manuscripts in Danish and German from Thott’s own century. The subject headings with most entries are Theology, History, History of Denmark, Danish Biography and Literature. As to provenances there is information concerning the manuscript’s provenance before the inclusion in Otto Thoot’s library in 17 % of the catalogue records. The analysis shows that Otto Thott’s manuscript collection was a universal collection with no specific preferences. The conclusion argues that it is necessary to get information from the various printed catalogs of the manuscript collection into the digital library system and that parts of Thott’s manuscript collection deserve revisiting and recataloguing. The Royal Danish Library’s manuscript collection might explore alternatives to the MARC-format for manuscript cataloguing. In a wider context, it is argued that Otto Thott’s library should be considered a knot in a network, and that data from the many book auction catalogues should be extracted and used for mapping the destinies of specific books and manuscripts.

Erik Petersen: Fontes Fontium. Birger Munk Olsen and the Study of the Latin Classical Authors up to 1200
In this presentation, the basic intentions, definitions and overwhelmingly rich results of professor Birger Munk Olsen’s magisterial opus magnum L’Étude des auteurs classiques latins aux XIe et XIIe siècles are briefly described. The first volume of L’Étude was published in 1982, the sixth and latest volume (= tome IV. 2) in 2014. BMO includes 57 authors from the end of the third century B.C. to the beginning of the fourth A.D. in his catalogue of Latin classical manuscripts copied in the 9th to the 12th centuries. The rationale for including the 9th and 10th centuries is that readers in the 11th and 12th centuries were still using books copied in the previous centuries. BMO also makes references to manuscripts copied before 800, the period covered by E. A. Lowe in Codices Latini Antiquiores. Since Bernhard Bischoff’s Katalog der festländischen Handschriften des neunten Jahrhunderts, mit Ausnahme der wisigotischen had not yet been published, the truly pioneering effort of BMO is related to his meticulous descriptions of the huge number of classical manuscripts copied in the period from the Carolingian Renaissance to the Renaissance of the 12th Century. His catalogue of individual manuscripts is followed, in vol. III. 1, by an equally detailed catalogue of the Latin classics in the libraries of the Middle Ages, based primarily on information collected in individual manuscripts and in a variety of medieval book lists and inventories. The two most recent volumes, La réception de la littérature classique. Travaux philologiques (IV. 1), and La réception de la littérature classique. Manuscrits et textes (IV. 2) are dedicated to broader issues of copying, reading and using texts and manuscripts, in a more synthetic manner than in the previous volumes. Still they draw upon BMO’s myriads of observations of details in the manuscripts and the experience of a long life in the company of the people who produced the books and used them.Denmark’s role in preserving and promoting classical literature during the Middle Ages was of little significance and less glory. During the Carolingian Renaissance Vikings were known to steal or destroy books rather than to read them. In the 12th century they had become less belligerent, perhaps, but still not very adaptive to classical literature. Of the 33 codices in the Royal Library included in EACL, 32 arrived in Copenhagen in the Early Enlightenment or later and had not been copied or studied in Denmark in the Middle Ages. Saxo Grammaticus marks a turning point, well-read in and dependent on classical authors as he was, but he completed his Gesta Danorum in the early years of the 13th century. However, he is known to have used a Justinus codex copied before the turn of the century, preserved in the Royal Library as GKS 450 2º. It was probably brought to Denmark from France by Archbishop Absalon, who lent it to Saxo and bequeathed it to the Cistercian monastery at Sorø. It remains a remarkable fact that the Justinus codex is the only extant manuscript of a Latin classical author recorded as being in Denmark before 1200. With the results of years of concentrated, hardcore research assembled in his L’Étude des auteurs classiques latins aux XIe et XIIe siècles Birger Munk Olsen has more than amply compensated for the meagre attention paid to the classics in early medieval Denmark. To the immense benefit of the scholarly community he has laid a new foundation for the study of the Latin classical authors, their transmission, use and history, which will surely prove indispensable for generations.

This article is a recapitulation of the history of research in Denmark on the Dead Sea Scrolls since their discovery. Before 1947, some authors had already treated subjects like the history of the Essenes and the Cairo Damascus Document. When news of the manuscript findings near Qumran reached the scholarly world and the Cave 1 manuscripts became known, Danish scholars showed great interest in the material, while at the same time proceeding with caution in the light of the uncertainty of the historical background of the scrolls. The available texts were translated into Danish and several studies as well as popular books were written. After a partial standstill during the 1960s and 1970s, the publication of the manuscript material especially from Cave 4 prompted an array of new investigations into the ancient Jewish worlds reflected in the scrolls. In recent years Dead Sea Scrolls scholars in Denmark, like their international colleagues, have renewed and expanded their methodological toolbox.

Abstract: Most books that existed in medieval Norway and Denmark are now lost or exist only in fragmentary form. The fragment collections of the Norwegian and Danish National Archives and the Royal Library in Copenhagen hold thousands of remnants of manuscripts, an invaluable source of knowledge of medieval book culture. The entwined history of Norway and Denmark represents a potential methodological challenge, as fragments from the same manuscript can sometimes be found scattered among collections in the two countries. This article examines such a case, showing how a single fragment from a twelfth-century missal in the National Archives in Norway was matched with several fragments in the Danish collections. The identifications, which were rendered possible by increased access to digital images, provide new insights into the missal’s likely origin and medieval provenance, putting us on the trail of an important Danish scriptorium.

Ivan Boserup & Karsten Christensen: Anders Sørensen Vedel’s manuscript about Marshal Stig. Two comments on Svend Clausen’s thesis in Fund og Forskning 55, 2016
Svend Clausen has in vol. 55 of Fund og Forskning called attention to a lost and “forgotten” parchment manuscript described by Anders Sørensen Vedel in 1595 as “The History of Marshal Stig” containing key documents related to the trial which followed the assassination in Finderup Grange of King Eric V ‘Glipping’ of Denmark (1259–1286). Clausen’s evidence consists of registrations of manuscripts known only through their titles, which had been available to the Danish historians Anders Sørensen Vedel (1542–1616), Niels Krag (1550–1602), and Jon Jakobsen ‘Venusinus’ (1563–1608), but appear ultimately to have burned in the fire of Copenhagen in 1728. The sources referred to by Clausen were published in one case by H. F. Rørdam in 1874, in all other cases in the appendix to S. Birket Smith’s History of the University Library of Copenhagen, 1882, reprinted 1982. Apparently inspired by a casual remark made in 1891 by the then very young historian Mouritz Mackeprang, Svend Clausen argues that despite the lack of extant copies and quotations etc., the manuscript’s supposedly exclusively judicial contents and allegedly very considerable volume reveal the “existence” of such an important source that future research on the background and consequences of the royal assassination must take much more account of this lost source than has been the case until now. Reviewing Svend Clausen’s arguments, Ivan Boserup corrects Rørdam’s and Clausen’s incomplete reading of the source on which the latter builds his identification of Vedel’s manuscript with descriptions of a lost manuscript “Concerning King Eric [Glipping],” and rejects Clausen’s interpretation of “… cum adversariis ac diversis” (Clausen seems unaware of the literary concept of adversaria), on which all his further arguments are based. From his professional standpoint as a historian, Karsten Christensen refers to Vedel’s strong focus on Marshal Stig in his collection of One Hundred Danish Folk Songs (publ. 1591), to Vedel’s idiosyncratic manner of describing his manuscripts from the point of view of his own main interests, and to the fact that in contrast to the Jens Grand trial held before the Pope in Rome in 1296, one should not expect written actiones to have been delivered at the meeting of the Danish grandees in Nyborg Castle in 1286 subsequent to the murder of Eric Glipping. Christensen therefore suggests that it is much more probable that the manuscript referred to in Vedel’s registration refers to a lost manuscript that, contrary to the one associated by Svend Clausen with Vedel’s lost manuscript, can be followed closely all the way up to 1728, and the contents of which have been detailed by the historian Stephanus Stephanius (1599–1650).

“The campaign with ink instead of blood”: Manuscripts, print and the war of opinion in the Scandinavian public sphere, 1801–1814Handwritten pamphlets circulated to a high extend as part of the war of opinion which went on in the Norwegian-Swedish borderland around 1814. This ‘campaign with ink instead of blood’, as Danish writers soon characterized this detested activity, was a vital part of the Swedish policy of conquering Norway from Denmark through the means of propaganda. This ‘secret war of opinion’, as it was described in 1803, culminated around 1814, when Sweden accomplished its long-term goal of forming a union with Norway. In this article I am concerned with the role and scope of handwritten letters, actively distributed as pamphlets as part of the Swedish monitoring activities in the borderland, especially in the period 1812 to 1813. These manuscripts were integrated parts of the manifold of publications circulating within a common, although conflict oriented Scandinavian public sphere in the making at this time. The duplication and distribution of handwritten pamphlets, and the interaction with printed material, as Danish counter pamphlets quoting and discussing these manuscripts, illustrates that manuscripts remained important at the beginning of the nineteenth century. They coexisted and interacted with printed material of different kinds, and have to be taken into consideration when studying the public sphere and the print culture in this period.

Ivan Boserup: The Chaves Drawing, the Galvin Murúa Manuscript, and the Miccinelli Claims Regarding Guaman Poma’s Nueva corónica
Among the many extraordinary claims of the Miccinelli manuscripts kept in a private collection in Naples and published in 1989 and later, one of those most urgently in need of being closely investigated has concerned the authorship of one of the treasures of the Royal Library of Denmark: the autograph manuscript of the Nueva corónica (Ms. GKS 2232 4º). Authorship of this manuscript has traditionally been assigned, in accordance with its title page and other evidence, to the Andean Indian Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala (1560?–1616?). Yet, in spite of the flat rejection of the Miccinelli material by the vast majority of leading specialists of the history and literature of early colonial Peru (see Adorno 1998; Zuidema 2001), the Miccinelli claims continue to find adepts at large and sometimes arouse new, fruitless debates. In 2012, however, it was revealed that a drawing included in one of the key manuscripts of the Miccinelli collection, a Contract which states that the mestizo chronicler and Jesuit Father Blas Valera was the real author of the Nueva corónica, is basically a tracing of a drawing of the Nueva corónica as reproduced from a retouched photograph in the facsimile edition of the Nueva corónica that was published in Paris in 1936 (see Boserup and Krabbe Meyer 2012; 2015). Following up on this material proof of the presence of recent forgeries within the Miccinelli collection, the present paper discusses the authenticity of a closely related drawing (the Chaves drawing) discovered c.1998 in the State Archives of Naples. This latter item turns out to be, in all probability, another recent tracing of a drawing of the Nueva corónica, based on the 1936 facsimile edition. The reason for discussing the Chaves drawing so many years later is a suggestion made in 2015 by the art historian Thomas B. F. Cummins (Harvard University). According to Cummins, the Chaves drawing is an authentic creation of Guaman Poma (see Cummins 2015). It is argued, however, that Professor Cummins’s superficial examination of the drawing and his advocacy of its authenticity are closely related to a theory developed by him in 2013 together with the renowned Peruvian anthropologist Juan Ossio (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, Lima) and supported by Conservator at the Getty Museum Nancy K. Turner (2015). Their view, which is inspired by an outdated suggestion of the historian Manuel Ballesteros (1911–2002), is that the Chaves drawing may originate from the manuscript of the long lost illustrated chronicle (1596) of Martín de Murúa (the Galvin Murúa) supposedly consisting to a large extent of illustrated folios originating from other sources. The evidence of the Galvin Murúa itself does not, however, corroborate this view (see Adorno and Boserup 2005; 2008). Hence, as in the case of the demonstrably fake Contract, it is argued that the Chaves drawing was produced in the late 1990s and “dropped” in the State Archives of Naples so as to be innocently “discovered” by a scholar working there, and later promoted as “external” evidence of the authenticity and historical reliability of the two main Miccinelli manuscripts. By stepping right into this trap nearly twenty years after others have been lured into it (Cantù 2001; Laurencich Minelli 2001; 2007), Cummins has taken the risk of being counted among the supporters of the Miccinelli manuscripts and of stirring up once more an international debate on the status of forged or corrupted material, which one can hope, however, will be thwarted at an early stage by the present analysis.

Investigations into dialect emergence are most often based on data from manuscripts and on comparative and internal reconstructions. Seldom does the opportunity arise to monitor the selection of competing norms during the emergence stage because the data to postulate the linguistic marketplace (and hence to know what forms were likely to have been in competition) are unavailable. The case of dialect emergence in Thyborøn, Denmark, over the past century offers just this rare opportunity. A historical demographic profile from the town's census data, dating back to its inception in the 1890s, enables a comparative analysis of the input dialects and variable linguistic forms that were in competition. It is possible to trace the linguistic and social variables at play during the emergence stage of this new dialect, following the tradition of research by Omdal (1977), Dorian (1981), Trudgill (1986), and Kerswill (1994b), among others. The findings contribute to an explanatory model of dialect emergence and transformation.

IntroductionIndividuals with Rett syndrome (RTT) experience impaired gross motor skills, limiting their capacity to engage in physical activities and participation in activities. There is limited evidence of the effectiveness of supported physical activity interventions. This study aims to evaluate the effects of a telehealth-delivered physical activity programme on physical activity, sedentary behaviour and quality of life in RTT.Methods and analysisThis is a multicentre study, conducted in Australia, Denmark and Israel. It is a randomised waitlist-controlled trial comparing an intervention to support physical activity with usual care. Participants are children and adults with RTT, recruited from the Australian Rett Syndrome Database, the Danish Center for Rett Syndrome and the Rett Syndrome Association of Israel. The intervention duration is 12 weeks, including fortnightly telephone contact to plan, monitor and develop individual activity programmes. Outcomes are measured at baseline, at 13 weeks and then at 25 weeks. The primary outcomes are sedentary behaviour assessed with an activPAL accelerometer and the number of daily steps measured with a StepWatch Activity Monitor. Secondary outcomes include sleep, behaviour and quality of life. Caregiver experiences will be assessed immediately after the intervention using a satisfaction questionnaire. Group differences for each outcome will be evaluated with analysis of covariance, adjusting for baseline values on an intention-to-treat basis.Ethics and disseminationEthics approval has been obtained in Western Australia from the Child and Adolescent Health Services (RGS3371), in Denmark from the Capital Region Ethics Committee (H-19040514) and in Israel from the Ariel University Institutional Review Board (AU-HEA-ML-20190331). Manuscripts on the development of the intervention from pilot work and the results of the intervention will be submitted to peer-reviewed journals. Results will be presented at conferences and consumer forums. We will develop an online resource documenting the physical activity programme and available supporting evidence.Trial registration numberNCT04167059; Pre-results.

Full textAbstract:
The Banten Sultanate was a pre-Indonesian Islamic kingdom from the 16th to early 19th centuries. Banten developed as a kingdom based on trade, its main commodity being pepper. In the 17th century, pepper became a spice with high value, so Banten used it as a diplomatic tool apart from being a trade commodity. As the destination of many foreign traders, it encouraged Banten to communicate with several kingdoms. Through historical research methods and a literature review, this article attempts to see diplomacy as one of the political activities of pre-Indonesian kingdoms. As a result, it can be seen that the Banten Sultanate carried out its diplomatic activities with several kingdoms, for example, Mecca (Ottoman), the Netherlands, England, Denmark, and France. This activity can be known from Banten's correspondence with the foreign kingdom and is supported by the chronicle narrative as colonial historiography. In this activity, the sultan of Banten often included several gifts, one of which was a large amount of pepper. Therefore, letters and other manuscripts can show Banten's position in diplomacy with other kingdoms, and pepper has an important role.

Full textAbstract:
The article discusses the development prospects of media technologies in the communication space in the context of the evolution of the education system, public health and museology in Russia and abroad. Basing on an interdisciplinary approach, historical-genetic and comparative research methods, the features of the use of modern media technologies and museology in the transition to a system of distance education and telemedicine are analyzed. While the XVI century had become a period of transition from manuscripts to printed editions, XIX century became the era of the industrial revolution, the beginning of the XXI century will go down as the "electronic-distance revolution", implemented by the graduates of the universities of the USSR, China, Denmark and the USA. It is concluded that in the context of the pandemic, a radical transformation of the education system, museology and health care has taken place. With the transition to distance education and telemedicine, the importance and demand for those universities, hospitals and museums has increased, which in a timely manner switched to the active use of modern media technologies. The importance of medical museology as a new branch of humanitarian knowledge, which determines the prospects for the progressive development of healthcare in the modern communication space, increases as well.

Full textAbstract:
In August 1947 Copenhagen hosted the first international congress of Egyptologists since the end of the Second World War. About thirty leading Egyptologists from the United States, Africa and Europe (with the exception of Germany) made their way to the Congress, which had important issues on the agenda, including the creation of an International Union of Egyptologists and the re-establishment of the most important international journals whose activities had ceased during the war. The atmosphere among the participants was good, but there was a fly in the ointment. The Danish host of the Congress, Professor of Egyptology C.E. Sander-Hansen, had failed to invite the head of the Glyptotek’s Egyptian department, Otto Koefoed-Petersen. Koefoed-Petersen was far from happy with that decision, and he therefore launched attacks against Sander- Hansen in several Danish newspapers, in which he suggested that Sander-Hansen and other Danish members of the host committee had had links with representatives of the German occupying power during the war. Where Koefoed-Petersen got this information from is uncertain, but the information was true. In August-September 1941 a meeting of Danish and German Egyptologists took place in Copenhagen. The main reason for the meeting was to address the challenges faced by the long-standing collaboration between the scientific academies in Berlin and Copenhagen regarding the publication of the Dictionary of the Egyptian Language, Wörterbuch der ägyptischen Sprache. The outbreak of war in September 1939 had made this work difficult, as the dictionary’s extensive amount of source texts (Zetteln) and archive in Berlin had been taken to safety, while several of the dictionary’s younger employees had been called up for military service. The meeting in Copenhagen was attended on the German side by the professor of Egyptology at the University of Berlin, Hermann Grapow, who came to Denmark on 29 August 1941 in the company of the director of the Prussian Academy of Sciences in Berlin, the Orientalist Helmuth Scheel and the Berlin-based Danish Egyptologist Wolja Erichsen. During the first days in Copenhagen, Grapow and Scheel met with, among others, the president of the German Scientific Institute in Copenhagen (the Deutsche Wissenschaftliche Institut), which had opened in May 1941, the Kiel professor Otto Scheel, and with representatives from the German embassy. On 1 September the University of Copenhagen’s Egyptological laboratory in the heart of Copenhagen hosted the first meeting between the Danish Egyptologists and Hermann Grapow. The Danish side was represented by the Nestor of Danish Egyptology, H.O. Lange, and the younger Egyptologists C.E. Sander-Hansen, Aksel Volten and Wolja Erichsen. Three topics were on the agenda: continued collaboration on the Egyptian dictionary in Berlin, C.E. Sander-Hansen’s future work on the late Berlin professor Kurt Sethe’s comments on the oldest known religious texts from Egypt – the Pyramid Texts – and the plan to publish a demotic dictionary. Two days later Grapow gave a lecture at the German Scientific Institute, where Sander-Hansen and Volten were among the many prominent members of the audience, which also included several representatives from the German embassy, led by the plenipotentiary Cecil von Renthe-Fink. H.O. Lange had originally agreed to participate but later changed his mind, citing poor health and challenges navigating safely in the dark as reasons for his cancellation. On 6 September C.E. Sander-Hansen, Erik Iversen and Wolja Erichsen met with Scheel and Grapow at the German Scientific Institute. The meeting, which had come about at the initiative of the Danes, had a more informative nature and revolved around Lange’s impending eightieth birthday in October 1943 and the opportunity to publish a Festschrift in his honour. Grapow and Scheel also had a number of other tasks in Copenhagen. In addition to several meetings with the various representatives of the German occupying power in Denmark, Grapow held, among other things, a meeting about another ongoing German project regarding the registration and inventory of German medieval manuscripts in Denmark with the head of the Prussian Academy’s Deutsche Kommission manuscript archive, Hans Werner Pyritz, who had come to Copenhagen on 2 September, and with a German lecturer at the University of Copenhagen, Günther Jungbluth. Pyritz also had the opportunity to give a well-attended lecture at the German Scientific Institute before the small German delegation left Denmark again on 7 September 1941. Several German government institutions in both Copenhagen and Berlin subsequently considered the Danish-German Egyptologists’ meeting in Copenhagen a success. However, it was not, as had been hoped from the German side, the starting point for a more in-depth collaboration between the German Scientific Institute and Danish intellectuals. After the Danish-German meeting in Copenhagen, difficulties continued for the Egyptian dictionary’s remaining employees in Berlin, Grapow and Erichsen. Because of the war, otherwise completed works could not be printed, and in 1943 conditions in Berlin had become so uncertain for Wolja Erichsen and his family that they left the German capital and settled in Denmark. Erichsen never returned to the dictionary work in Berlin. The plans to publish a Festschrift to H.O. Lange came to nothing when, after a short illness, Lange passed away in January 1943. The German lecturer Günther Jungbluth had hardly got much further with his work of inventorying the German medieval manuscripts at the Royal Library and the University Library when he was called up for military service in January 1942 and had to leave Denmark. The Danish-German gathering in Copenhagen in 1941 had no consequences for the participating Danish Egyptologists after the liberation in May 1945. This was primarily due to the fact that the Danish public never found out about it – or rather, only did so very late. In 1941 the Danish newspapers wrote neither about the meeting of the Danish and German Egyptologists nor about Grapow’s and Pyritz’s lectures at the German Scientific Institute, with a number of German and Danish notables among the audience. The Danish-German meeting was therefore forgotten until Koefoed-Petersen brought it up in connection with the public dispute with Sander-Hansen in the late summer of 1947. Otto Koefoed-Petersen undoubtedly found the visit of his Danish Egyptologist colleagues to the German Scientific Institute during the occupation inappropriate. By bringing the subject up in connection with the Egyptologists’ conference in 1947, he probably hoped to be able to bring the Danish participants, and not least C.E. Sander-Hansen, into disrepute. However, that did not happen. Many newspapers were critical of Sander-Hansen’s actions regarding Koefoed-Petersen’s lack of invitation to the Egyptology conference, but none of them was apparently prompted to investigate the otherwise precarious subject of the comings and goings of Sander-Hansen and his colleagues at the German Scientific Institute during the occupation.

Full textAbstract:
There are more than 160 journals within our specialty indexed in Medline/PubMed. So is there really a need for a new gynecological and obstetrics journal?
We believe so. Several factors may hinder researchers from publishing their studies, especially younger or non-established researchers. To our knowledge, the publishers behind all of the above journals are for-profit and as such, are limited by either not being open access journals or those that are open access, follow the pay-to-publish model. The fees for publishing are often so high that independent researchers cannot pay out of their own pocket and it can be difficult to obtain funding for article processing charges.
Novelty is a criterion most journals ask their peer-reviewers to assess when reviewing submitted manuscripts. This means that reproduction studies and negative findings are more difficult to publish, even though they are the very backbone of the scientific method. Researchers may be hesitant to publish such studies for a hefty fee when they know they are rarely cited, which is why publication bias is a common finding in meta-analyses.
Case reports, protocols, and descriptive studies often have difficulty in finding a suitable journal. Currently, only randomized studies are required to have a protocol registered prior to inclusion of patients. However, it is a good practice for observational studies to do so as well, as there is an inherent penchant for researchers to adjust their aims when they have access to the data. Case reports are often the type of articles less experienced colleagues first try their hands at and can be their stepping-stone into the research world.
Finally, even though the Danish Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology is an international journal exclusively publishing articles in English, we believe that having a journal that is mainly read by clinicians from Denmark may help the publishing of Danish guideline résumés and articles specific to a Danish clinical setting. Having such articles regarding changes in clinical practice published for posterity will make it easier for future clinicians to evaluate and account for the effects of such changes. The ability to cite guideline résumés through CrossRef is also encouraging for those participating in producing them and makes it easier to our non-Danish speaking colleagues in the rest of the world to read what the clinical practice is in Denmark.

Niels Krabbe: Paul von Klenau and his ninth Symphony – the sources, the work, the reception
In 2001, the Royal Library learned about a comprehensive private collection in Vienna that contained music, letters and lecture manuscripts, photographs and other archive materials of the Danish composer Paul von Klenau (1883–1946). A preliminary survey of the collection revealed that the contents included a number of music manuscripts (symphonies, chamber music concerts and more), which were not known from the rest of the library’s major collection of Klenau works. The collection’s greatest and most interesting work was a major complete “Ninth Symphony” for orchestra, choir and four soloists in eight movements, for a Latin text with a mix of liturgical texts from the Catholic requiem and texts of unknown provenance.In 2005, the library succeeded in acquiring the collection and it was transferred to the Royal Library. Subsequently, the Danish Centre for Music Publication (DCM) organised a philological adaptation and published Symphony No. 9 for the purpose of the premier performance of the work, which duly took place 70 years after it was written, performed as a Thursday Concert in March 2014 and conducted by Michael Schønwandt.Klenau had worked in Germany as a composer and conductor in the 1920s and 1930s. He returned to Denmark in 1939 where he stayed for the rest of his life. Because of his extensive German background he did not receive high recognition in Danish music, despite the range and nature of his musical output. This was mainly because of his relationship with the Third Reich and Nazism, which affected his last years and his posthumous reputation.Symphony No. 9 was composed in the years 1944–45, and is a mix of requiem and a symphony, each in four movements. Due to the text, the work is both a traditional requiem and a requiem about the war. Both in its expression and in its length, it is probably the greatest symphony ever written by a Danish composer.The premier in 2014 received mixed reviews, and Klenau’s attitude to Nazism was discussed once again. The work was criticised for its eclectic character with its mix of late romantic forms of expression on the one side and its accomplished dodecaphonic passages on the other.The newly available Klenau collection from Vienna, including the treated Symphony No. 9, has nuanced and problematised Klenau’s position in Danish music history.

Davide Domenici: Disentangling Knots. Real and fictional khipu systems in the Naples documents, Garcilaso de la Vega’s Comentarios, Guaman Poma’s Nueva corónica, and Raimondo De Sangro’s Lettera apologetica
The present paper offers a new critical approach to the so-called Naples documents, a group of controversial manuscripts that contain unprecedented claims regarding Peruvian colonial history, among them the attribution to the mestizo Jesuit Father Blas Valera of the authorship of El primer nueva corónica i buen gobierno of Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala, one of the treasures of the Royal Library of Denmark. The Naples documents ignited a scholarly controversy, placing scholars who considered them to be bold modern forgeries in opposition to scholars who believed in their authenticity and veracity. The strategy chosen here for attempting to make some progress in assessing the authenticity of single parts of the Naples documents consists of a deliberate focus on one single, major aspect, to the disregard of others. In the present case, the focus is on the various examples of “syllabic khipu” represented in the documents, considered from the vantage point of Raimondo de Sangro’s Lettera apologetica (1750). In this famous book, the Neapolitan intellectual presented an example of a “syllabic khipu” writing system, apparently derived from one of the two main Naples documents. A detailed analysis of the diverse relationships between the Lettera Apologetica and the Naples documents makes it possible to demonstrate that only a small part of the documents can be considered to be earlier than 1750, and hence potentially can be identified with what De Sangro himself mentions as being his main source. However, most parts of the Naples manuscripts are manifestly dependent on the Lettera Apologetica, and are therefore clearly not what they purport to be. On the basis of our analysis, we propose that the authentic pre-1750 part of one of the documents is an interesting source on the colonial perception and transformation of native Andean khipu, but that it is devoid of any “revolutionary” content. The demonstration that the Naples documents with one single exception are clear post-1750 forgeries thus implies that their claims must be rejected, including those regarding El primer nueva corónica i buen gobierno, the distinctive and unique achievement of the Andean Indian Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents a bibliometric analysis of inventory models in a sustainable supply chain. The methodology contains reviewing previous research with a performance evaluation, network analysis, and science mapping to identify the applications, trends, and future research topics. Scientific mapping examines the periods and volumes of publications, authors, journals, countries, regions, organizations, subject areas, and citation analyses. The dataset was obtained with the Scopus database and analyzed using MS Excel and VOSviewer. The search equation identified 335 research papers, which resulted in 131 significant manuscripts on the subject after being screened and filtered. The most notable countries in developing research were Iran, India, China, the United States, Canada, Taiwan, France, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, and Denmark. Saha, S., Ajay, S.Y., and Baboli, A. were the most cited authors. The journals that publish the most research were Sustainability, the Journal of Cleaner Production, and the International Journal of Production Economics. Some research focuses on reducing carbon emissions and polluting agents applied in different industries in China, Brazil, India, and others. The main findings were the number of industry sectors researching this topic, increasing the number of publications, and promoting the proper use of resources within a sustainable supply chain. There are many investigations of theoretical models that have applications in real-life cases. There is also evidence of the high importance of promoting sustainable development. The emissions regulations in a green supply chain applied to agricultural products have allowed for more actions to achieve responsible production and consumption, as seen in applied research in the pulp and paper industry.

Full textAbstract:
Methods: The authors conducted a systematic review of scholarly journals and manuscripts. The search was limited to articles published in English that focused on group treatment with torture survivors.
Findings: The authors identified 36 articles and chapters for review describing a variety of group interventions for survivors of torture, including:
Supportive Group Therapy
Empowerment Workshops
Group Treatment for Sleep Disorders
Den Bosch model
Wraparound approach
Stage-oriented model
The literature examined varied in approach and format: present-day and past-focused groups; structured, time-limited groups; and flexible, ongoing support groups.
The studies took place in diverse locations, including Denmark, Germany, Guinea, Namibia, the Netherlands, Palestine, Serbia, the U.S., the UK, and Zimbabwe, and, in conflict, post-conflict and/or humanitarian settings. The interventions were facilitated by licensed mental health professionals, paraprofessionals, and bilingual/bicultural staff – or a combination of the latter two.
Interpretations: Group treatment is an approach which can be administered to larger groups of survivors to address a range of treatment issues. The authors examined key clinical practice issues for group treatment including group composition and content, facilitation and measurement strategies. While the literature does provide a compelling conceptual rationale for using group treatment, the empirical literature is in fact very limited at this time and needs to be strengthened in order to build confidence in outcomes across contexts and survivor communities.
Conclusions: This paper points to a growing interest in the topic of group treatment for survivors of torture and severe violence, providing a comprehensive picture of group-based interventions and highlighting the need for additional research and knowledge-building.

IntroductionHepatocyte nuclear factor 1α (HNF1A)-diabetes is the most common monogenetic subtype of diabetes. Strict glycaemic control is crucial for a good prognosis for patients with HNF1A-diabetes. Sulfonylurea (SU) is used as a first-line therapy in HNF1A-diabetes. However, SU therapy may be problematic as it confers a high risk of hypoglycaemia. We hypothesise that low dose of SU in combination with a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor provides a safer and more efficacious treatment in patients with HNF1A-diabetes compared with SU as monotherapy.Methods and analysisIn a randomised, double-blinded, crossover study, patients with HNF1A-diabetes will randomly be assigned to 16 weeks of treatment with glimepiride+linagliptin, 4 weeks of washout and 16 weeks of treatment with glimepiride+placebo (or vice versa). Treatment will be evaluated with continuous glucose monitoring and combined meal and bicycle tests conducted at baseline and at the end of each of the two treatment periods. The primary end point is the absolute difference in the mean amplitude of glycaemic excursions between the two treatments (glimepiride+linagliptin vs glimepiride+placebo) at the end of each treatment period.Ethics and disseminationThe study protocol is approved by the Danish Medicines Agency, The Scientific-Ethical Committee of the Capital Region of Denmark (H-17014518) and the Danish Data Protection Agency. The trial will be carried out and monitored in compliance with Good Clinical Practice guidelines and in accordance with the latest version of the Declaration of Helsinki. Positive, negative and inconclusive results will be published at scientific conferences and as one or more scientific manuscripts in peer-reviewed journals with authorship in accordance with the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors’ recommendations.Trial registration number2017-000204-15.

IntroductionFebrile urinary tract infection is one of the most common bacterial infections in children. Currently, recommended antibiotic duration is 10 days. However, recent evidence suggests that 90%–95% of children with febrile urinary tract infections are afebrile and clinically improved 48–72 hours after treatment initiation. Accordingly, individualised duration of antibiotic therapy, according to the recovery time, might be more beneficial than current recommendations, but no evidence exists.Methods and analysisAn open-label randomised clinical trial equally randomising children aged 3 months to 12 years from eight Danish paediatric departments with uncomplicated febrile (≥38°C) urinary tract infection to either individualised or standard duration of antibiotic therapy. Children allocated to individualised duration of antibiotic therapy will terminate antibiotic therapy 3 days after clinical improvement with no fever, flank pain or dysuria. Children allocated to standard duration will receive 10 days of antibiotic therapy. Co-primary outcomes are non-inferiority for recurrent urinary tract infection or death within 28 days after the end of treatment (non-inferiority margin 7.5 percentage points) and superiority for the number of days with antibiotic therapy within 28 days after treatment initiation. Seven other outcomes will also be assessed. A total of 408 participants are needed to detect non-inferiority (one-sided alpha 2.5%; beta 80%).Ethics and disseminationThis trial has been approved by the Ethics Committee (H-21057310) and the Data Protection Agency (P-2022-68) in Denmark. Regardless of the trial’s findings (whether positive, negative or inconclusive), the results will be compiled into one or more manuscripts for publication in international peer-reviewed scientific journals and presented at conferences.Trial registration numberNCT05301023.

Full textAbstract:
This essay offers an examination of an Icelandic thirteenth-century manuscript fragment which represents the earliest extant traces of a medical book in the vernacular in medieval Scandinavian culture. The fragment contains fifty-two articles, describing various ailments and their cures as well as the medical effects of different plants and other materials. The origins of this manuscript remain enigmatic. The essay aims to shed what light is possible on its origins and use. It includes a description of the manuscript’s physical characteristics, an analysis of its literary and sociological context, and a critical discussion of what this may tentatively tell us about the production, purpose, and use of the medical codex to which the fragment once belonged. The manuscript materially exemplifies the movement of Arabic and Latin medical knowledge from Italy to Denmark through Norway to Iceland. The essay further argues that the manuscript’s obscure relationship to five other Old Norse medical books illustrates the common medieval tradition of freely reworking medical material into individual specific contexts. The physical features of the fragment indicate that the codex which it represents was considered both practical and important, and that its purpose was to be used as an instrument in healing practices in thirteenth-century Iceland. An English translation of the fragment’s text is appended.

Introduction. The present review article is devoted to written Mongolian collections from repositories in different regions of Russia, which were formed thanks to the selfless work of brilliant Orientalists. At present, there is an urgent need in systematization, analysis, search for information, and distant access to archival records and written sources, which will give researchers more opportunities for distant work with sources. Accordingly, perspectives of using information technologies will fascilitate the coordination and wider cooperation, as well as greater openness in the academic environment, the urgency of which is quite obvious. It is the right moment, too, because, first of all, the data on written sources is still scattered in a variety of publications; secondly, 2018 saw the launch of a grandiose project ”World Heritage of Mongolians”, which is primarily designed to create a uniform inventory of historical-documentary heritage of Mongolian peoples. The project plans include the publication of twenty volumes to present collections of written monuments dispersed in various countries of the world: Russia, Japan, China, the USA, France, Denmark, Hungary, etc. Three volumes will be devoted to Mongolian sources from Russian repositories. The purpose of the present article is to give an overview of the repositories of the documentary heritage of the Mongolian peoples in different regions of Russia. Results. The largest collections of Mongolian written sources are stored in St Petersburg (Scientific Library of St Petersburg University, Institute of Oriental Manuscripts of the Russian Academy of Sciences, State Museum for the History of Religion, National Library of Russia), in Buryatia (Center for Oriental Manuscripts and Xylographs, Institute for Mongolian, Buddhist and Tibetan Studies of the Siberian Branch of the RAS; V. A. Obruchev Kyakhta Museum for Local Studies), in Tyva (Aldan-Maadyr National Museum of the Republic of Tyva, Scientific Archive of the Tyva Institute for Studies in the Humanities and Applied Socio-Economics), in the Republic of Tatarstan (National Archive of the Republic of Tatarstan), and in Kalmykia (Scientific Archive of the Kalmyk Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, National Archive of the Republic of Kalmykia, N.N. Pal´mov Kalmyk Museum of Local Studies); these comprise representative collections, including rare and unique monuments of Mongolian written literature. Some of these collections have been studied to a degree, but there are still many to be introduced into scientific circulation. That is why it is of urgent importance to represent written Mongolian sources, their significant part kept in Russian repositories. Further work on identifying and describing the documentary heritage of the Mongolian peoples will contribute to our knowledge of the field that still needs to be investigated.

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic caused by the virus SARS-CoV has spread rapidly and caused damage worldwide. Data suggest a major overrepresentation of hypertension and diabetes among patients experiencing severe courses of COVID-19 including COVID-19-related deaths. Many of these patients receive renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibiting therapy, and evidence suggests that treatment with angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) could attenuate SARS-CoV-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome, and ACE inhibitors and ARBs have been suggested to alleviate COVID-19 pulmonary manifestations. This randomised clinical trial will address whether RAS inhibiting therapy should be continued or discontinued in hospitalised patients with COVID-19.Methods and analysisThis trial is a 30-day randomised parallel-group non-inferiority clinical trial with an embedded mechanistic substudy. In the main trial, 215 patients treated with a RAS inhibitor will be included. The participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either discontinue or continue their RAS inhibiting therapy in addition to standard care. The patients are included during hospitalisation and followed for a period of 30 days. The primary end point is number of days alive and out of hospital within 14 days after recruitment. In a mechanistic substudy, 40 patients treated with RAS inhibition, who are not in hospital and not infected with COVID-19 will be randomly assigned to discontinue or continue their RAS inhibiting therapy with the primary end point of serum ACE2 activity.Ethics and disseminationThis trial has been approved by the Scientific-Ethical Committee of the Capital Region of Denmark (identification no. H-20026484), the Danish Medicines Agency (identification no. 2020040883) and by the Danish Data Protection Agency (P-2020-366). The results of this project will be compiled into one or more manuscripts for publication in international peer-reviewed scientific journals.Trial registration number2020-001544-26;NCT04351581.

Since the adhesion of resin composites to calcium silicate-based cement is considered challenging. Therefore, the best adhesion strategy should be indicated. This review aimed to assess the effect of different adhesive systems on the bond strength of resin composite to calcium silicate-based cement through a systematic review and meta-analysis. The subsequent PICOS framework used was: population, calcium silicate-based cement; intervention, use of self-etch adhesive systems; control, use of total-etch adhesive systems; outcome, bond strength; study design, in vitro studies. The literature search was conducted independently by two reviewers up to 18 February 2021. Electronic databases (PubMed, ISI Web of Science, SciELO, Scopus, and Embase) were searched for applicable articles. In vitro manuscripts studying the effect of adhesive systems on the bond strength of calcium silicate-based cement were considered. The meta-analyses were performed using Review Manager Software version 5.3.5 (The Nordic Cochrane Centre, The Cochrane Collaboration, Copenhagen, Denmark). Bond strength comparisons were made considering the type of calcium silicate-based cement (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA), Biodentine™, or TheraCal LC®). A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. A total of 7321 studies were retrieved in databases searched. After full-text evaluation, 37 eligible papers were assessed for qualitative analysis, leaving a total of 22 papers for the quantitative analysis. According to the meta-analysis, the bond strength values of resin composite materials to MTA and TheraCal LC® cement were favored when a total-etch adhesive system was used (p ≤ 0.02). On the other hand, the meta-analysis of the bond strength of resin-based materials to Biodentine™ calcium silicate-based cement was similar between both approaches (p = 0.12). The in vitro evidence suggests that the bond strength of resin-based materials to both MTA and TheraCal LC® cement was preferred by using the total-etch adhesive strategy. However, when bonding to Biodentine™, the use of self-etch or total-etch strategies displayed promising results. Given the lack of evidence related to the chemical interaction of self-etch adhesive materials with the bioceramics, if self-etch adhesives are used for bonding resin-based restorations to calcium silicate-based cement, a pretreatment with phosphoric acid could be recommended.

The Royal Library in Copenhagen is the natural home of the Egyptologist and librarian H. O. Lange’s comprehensive archives. For almost 40 years, from 1885 to 1924, he worked at the library, from 1901 to 1924 as chief librarian.The archives at the section for Egyptology at the Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies (ToRS) at the University of Copenhagen include a small collection of manuscripts, notes and letters to and from H. O. Lange. The collection also contains a scientific testament prepared by H. O. Lange. The testament is undated, but is thought to have been written in 1938 or 1939. In the testament, which H. O. Lange drew up after retiring from his position as associate professor in Egyptology at the University of Copenhagen, he gave an account of his own efforts within the relatively young field of study, which only gained a foothold at the university following the establishment of his own associate professorship in 1924, while also suggesting how the status of Egyptology in Denmark could be promoted. Characteristically for H. O. Lange, in the testament he was very modest about the results he had achieved during his time at the university. Instead, he drew attention to the people and institutions (in particular the Carlsberg Foundation) who had made it possible for him to establish Egyptology as a field of study at the University of Copenhagen. The training of a new generation of Danish Egyptologists who could ensure the University of Copenhagen’s continued leading position in Scandinavia was an issue very close to H. O. Lange’s heart. In the testament, he gave particular mention to his four best students: C. E. Sander-Hansen, Wolja Erichsen, Aksel Volten and Erik Iversen. He described what their future prospects and opportunities might be, including which jobs he thought they should each take upon themselves.All four students became prominent Egyptologists in their own right, and contributed to ensuring that the University of Copenhagen’s international reputation within Egyptology achieved as a result of H. O. Lange’s long-standing work was not just maintained but further expanded and developed.

Abstract This article interrogates three manuscript inventories for Anna of Denmark’s collection at the Tudor palace of Oatlands in Surrey, written at yearly intervals in 1616, 1617 and 1618. It explores the changing display of her paintings there in lavishly furnished settings and the positioning of a new portrait, Paul van Somer’s Anne of Denmark. Van Somer locates his subject in the hunting park at Oatlands with a representation, in the background, of an Inigo Jones gateway. This article explores Anna’s agency as a collector and patron. It proposes new readings for the interplay between portraiture, architecture, and the decorative and performing arts at the early Stuart court. Through a study of particular occasions at which they were seen by foreign ambassadors, it proposes a political currency for the queen’s collection and for van Somer’s portraits and Jones’s architecture, as integral components in the elaborate ‘performances’ of the court.

This special issue of the SBC Journal on 3D Interactive Systems is dedicated to the dissemination of the activities of several groups working on virtual reality, 3D graphics, 3D interaction, multimodal interaction and related themes in Brazil and other countries. Through this initiative the SBC Journal on 3D Interactive Systems is innovating: it is the first time that a Brazilian journal publishes, in a single issue, information regarding different laboratories for prospective students and potential collaborators.The papers selected for this issue introduce Virtual Reality, Graphics and Human Computer Interaction laboratories, their mission and goals, as well as interesting results from their recent projects. This will benefit the scientific community as a whole. It is a special opportunity for the different research groups to introduce themselves, describe their interests and areas of activity, as well as their research directions, thus enabling contacts and potential cooperation.We received 30 manuscripts and, after a peer review phase, we selected 26 technical communications. Most of the VR and CG research laboratories in Brazil are represented; some are more dedicated to virtual reality and graphics applications, others also work with image processing for improving interaction. We also received interesting contributions from laboratories in other countries like Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, New Zealand, Spain, Switzerland and United Kingdom, as well as from a trans-national group involving Belgium, France, Italy, Germany, Georgia, Hungary, Netherlands, Poland, Spain and United Kingdom.In a general way, readers will find information about research on interaction devices, gesture recognition-based interaction, collaborative interaction, and innovative ways of interaction with tablets and walls. Also several 3D interactive visualization and rendering techniques are well explored by VR and CG researchers. Applications related to health care, chemistry, arts, among others, are some of the topics that the labs are pursuing in their projects. All the groups are interested in receiving students and establishing collaboration for new projects. Thus, we hope the content of the papers here presented can help researchers in finding partners and, in this way, improving their contribution to the fields of VR, CG and HCI.We would like to express our thanks to the editor-in-chief, Luciana Nedel, for inviting us to be guest editors, but mainly for shaping the idea of this special issue. We also thank the reviewers for their help with insightful revisions, and the authors for their interesting contributions as well as for the willingness in the whole process of preparing this issue.

Full textAbstract:
Kaj Thaning 4.6. 1904 - 6.6. 1994By Kim Arne Pedersen.A few days after his ninetieth birthday, Kaj Thaning died peacefully in his home in Båring, where he had been a clergyman for a generation, and where his monumental work, the thesis .Man First.... was made ready for publication in 1963. Kaj Thaning was bom into a family with roots in influential circles of Grundtvigianism, but as a young undergraduate he came into contact with the Danish Tidehverv movement which introduced the dialectic theology in Denmark. Together with a number of other young theologians Kaj Thaning was connected with both Tidehverv and Grundtvigian circles, and the group was consequently termed .Tidehverv Grundtvigianism.. Thaning became the Grundtvig interpreter within this group, and published his interpretations in a number of books and articles, and a precis of the main thoughts in his thesis was translated into a number of foreign languages in connection with Grundtvig’s anniversary in 1972. Thaning was a vicar through the greater part of his life, but was also deeply engaged in numerous other activities: establishing a folk high school, participating in debates on topical issues, and, in co-operation with the pioneers of the Grundtvig Society, working out the register of Grundtvig’s unprinted manuscripts, a work amply demonstrating his impressive abilities as a research historian. Thaning was a member of the Grundtvig Society Committee from 1948. As early as 1949 he wrote his first major article in Grundtvig Studies, and until recent years he contributed a large number of long or short papers to the yearbook, always impressive in their profundity and perspicacity. As an interpreter of Grundtvig, Thaning has reached far beyond the academic circles to which scientific research is usually restricted. Thaning’s thesis - that the modem relevance of Grundtvig’s writings is closely bound up with his struggle with his personal mixture of the human and the Christian - has had a decisive influence on the Danish cultural and theological debate in the years after World War II, in that it matches with Denmark’s development from an agricultural to an industrial and urban society, and with the decreasing influence of the religious revival movements. Thaning’s secular-theological emphasis on the separation of the human and the Christian as the essential theme in Grundtvig’s writings legitimized this development, but at the same time Thaning’s thesis bore evidence of a profound personal struggle and of a theologically thoroughly contemplated interpretation of Grundtvig, encompassing his entire work. All the same, it seems fair today to view Thaning’s thesis in the light of the theological currents he met on his way, a theological-historical view which may be understood in continuation of the criticism of Thaning’s thesis, raised by recent Grundtvig research, seeking its arguments in incarnation theology. In recent years, this criticism has paved the way for a renewed occupation with Grundtvig’s liturgical theology, and has been able to fertilize Grundtvig’s thoughts in an international, ecumenical-theological context. Thaning, however, was unaffected by this criticism; he remained forever prepared to raise objections to his critics. Thus, from recent years, the present writer remembers Thaning’s unremitting and unyielding defence of his thesis, but also his kindness and helpfulness in connection with the present writer’s first attempts in Grundtvig research.The fact that Thaning’s position has been abandoned in modem research does not weaken the greatness of his work. Thaning’s critics, too, have been - if adversely - influenced by his thesis, whose definition of the relationship between the human and the Christian has left an indelible trace in Danish theology.

Full textAbstract:
Born in Tønder, Denmark, Stephan Kenckel (1661–1732) had a short career in schoolteaching before becoming, in 1697, a customs master based in the provincial port town of Helsingør. Remarkably, Kenckel was a major collector both of musical instruments and of printed and manuscript music. We know this, since his music and instruments were put up for public auction after his death. The printed sale catalogue, the relevant contents of which are listed, described, and analysed, also includes, in the example studied, the handwritten names of purchasers and the prices they paid. The range of instruments—familiar and exotic, antiquated and newfangled-owned by Kenckel and the breadth of his musical repertory, which suggests the existence of a thriving collegium musicum active in Helsingør, testify to a higher state of musical development in early-18th-century Denmark than has been generally recognized.

Marina Vidas: Devotion, Remembrance, and Identity: The Hagiographic Entries and Obituaries in a Parisian Thirteenth-Century Illuminated Psalter Made for Jakob Sunesen
The focus of the article is a handsomely illuminated Parisian thirteenth-century Psalter (London, British Library, MS Egerton 2652), which includes in the Calendar feasts of saints venerated in Denmark and, more specifically, in the diocese of Roskilde. A brief description of the manuscript is provided and the scholarly literature about the Psalter is discussed. Then a fresh look is taken at the significance of the hagiographic entries and obituaries in the Calendar. New reasons are provided for identifying the patron of MS Egerton 2652 as the Danish nobleman Jakob Sunesen (d. 1246) who had major landholdings on the island of Sjælland, and had family ties to Roskilde and Paris. The reception of the work after its completion is addressed and it is argued that the Parisian illuminated devotional manuscript might be understood as a symbol of Jakob Sunesen’s high status. It is suggested that Jakob Sunesen’s only surviving child, Ingerd, Countess of Regenstein (c.1200–1258), might have inherited the Psalter and had the obituaries added to the Calendar after her father’s death. The article also seeks to show that the obituaries may not only have served a commemorative purpose but they may have demonstrated and celebrated the manuscript owner’s noble lineage and connections.

N . F. S. Grundtvig: View of the History of Poetry and Bernhard Severin Ingemann. MS in the Grundtvig Archives, Fasc. 179, 1, from 1822.Edited by Flemming Lundgreen-Nielsen. Museum Tusculanum, Copenhagen 1985.Reviewed by Gustav AlbeckThis is a manuscript that deserves to have been edited and published before now. The poet’s son, Svend Grundtvig, did the preparatory work but never got his edition published. The cover of the present edition depicts W. E. Parry’s two ships in the polar darkness during his attempt to discover the North-West Passage in 1819-20. The reviewer informs us that in the manuscript Grundtvig describes the development of poetry as an unbroken chain of voyages of discovery, in which the contemporary, unsolved problem of the North-West Passage appears as a recurrent metaphor in various contexts.The editor, the excellent Grundtvig scholar, Dr. Lundgreen-Nielsen, has supplied a compact and scholarly preface and a commentary that is almost too thorough. Yet it must be admitted that the text requires both empathy and notes. It is not easy tofollow the poet’s image-filled presentation. It has previously been employed by Fr. R.nning in a little piece on Grundtvig as an aesthete (1883) and in the anthology Towards a Characterisation of N . F. S. Grundtvig (1915). Dr AlfHenriques has advanced some important reflections on this in his doctorate Shakespeare and Denmark (1941), as has Dr Helge Toldberg in his doctorate Grundtvig’s Symbolism (1950). Most recently Helge Grell has made use of some of the views expressed therein in his book The Creative Word and the Figurative Word (1980).The text is an interesting link in the development of Grundtvig’s view of the nature and mission of poetry. It does not tell us much about the poet Ingemann, even though it is evident from the manuscript that his name was the original title; comment on him fills a mere eight of the manuscript’s forty pages. In a kind of epilogue Grundtvig himself recognises that the essay assumes a knowledge of “the poetry and achievements of the strangest peoples” and the ability to “gather what they know”, an art which is far from common. But it is the hope of both editor and reviewer that it will find a varied group of readers.The introduction offers an outline of Grundtvig as an aesthete, a full and stimulating contribution to a work that is still waiting to be written. It does demand, however, “a systematic publication of the posthumous papers concerned with aesthetic matters,” and “a special Grundtvig dictionary”: two wishes that the reviewer shares with the editor. But there are other areas where Professor Albeck disagrees with, and is critical of, Dr Lundgreen-Nielsen.For example, the reviewer does not believe the essays were written with foreigners in mind. In his epilogue Grundtvig writes that here he “had strangers in mind” (nb. the Danish word fremmed means both ‘strange’ and ‘foreign’). The question is, What does he mean by ‘strangers’? Both the content and the language point to him addressing a domestic audience, but one that is distanced from him. He presupposes an acquaintance with the Danish language and history as well as a love of Denmark that could scarcely be expected of any but his compatriots. It is possible that originally he did have a foreign audience in mind, but changes his direction. Professor Albeck imagines that Grundtvig has originally thought of a Danish periodical (or possibly the Danish newspaper LatestPictures of Copenhagen, where he has found one of the essay’s main images, the North-West Passage). The title suggests that Grundtvig’s primary interest has been to introduce his poet-friend Ingemann to a wider public, but that the introduction to this has swollen out of all proportion into a strongly subjective survey of the history of poetry in the world.

Introduction While effective project planning is crucial for the success of a clinical research project, being able to execute the plan is even more important. In Denmark, approval for health research projects is applied for at regional or national committees on health research ethics, which have been reluctant to approve clinical research projects involving forensic psychiatric in-patients, due to the admission usually being pursuant to treatment sanctions. However, recently we received approval for a clinical research project exclusively targeted towards inpatients at a large medium secure forensic psychiatric facility in Denmark. Objectives Describing the process of project execution from planning to submitting the manuscript which is inherently multi-faceted and inundated with stress factors. How to connect theory, knowledge, project with clinical practice, with clinical research? Methods Qualitative data collecting while undertaking an exploratory, open-label, non-randomised weight reducing trial with a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist. Results Challenges in finding, screening, motivating, recruiting, obtaining valid confirmed consent from potential study participants and other stakeholders, team communication, responsibilities and accountabilities within the team, Pareto Principle, scope creep, building project reports manually, real-time data gathering, unpredictable and other project deliverables will be presented Conclusions Experiences of the hospital staff (psychiatrists, doctors and nurses) in execution process of the project investigation performed and made possible through participation of their forensic psychiatric in-patients.

Full textAbstract:
The lithostratigraphic data presented here represent the mid-1991 status of the lithostratigraphic database at the Geological Survey of Denmark. The database comprises basic well information such as well location, company, completion date, depths and seismic two-way travel times to top and base of lithostratigraphic units recognized in the wells. Well location maps, a stratigraphic scheme and a list of selected references are included in the present publication. The aim of the presentation is to make these abundant data available to those working with subsurface geology in Denmark and adjacent areas. The key information are depths and seismic two-way travel times to top and base of lithostratigraphic units. The units are primarily recognized by means of petrophysical wireline logs measured in the wells. The boundaries of the units are indicated by significant changes in log pattern and readings as defined in the relevant publications (see reference list). The stratigraphic subdivision of the individual wells has been undertaken over the years by various geologists at the Survey and the level of subdivision thus depends on the data and time available when the subdivision was made. The database is, however, continuously revised as new wells or further work increase our knowledge of the subsurface. The database contains all exploration and appraisal wells drilled on Danish territory. The wells are included irrespective of whether the purpose was exploration for hydrocarbons, geothermal energy, or investigation of possible sites of waste-deposits or gas-storage. However, the wells drilled on the Tostrup salt structure are not included nor are production, observation and injection wells from oil or gas fields since the additional stratigraphic information provided by such wells is generally limited. Wells related to exploration and production of rock salt are not included in the database; most of these were drilled before 1953 and are dealt with in Sorgenfrei & Buch (1964, Table 1, p. 14-17). Further information concerning available logs, reports, and geological samples obtained from the wells, together with information on casings, bit sizes, and test intervals can be found in the Well Data Summary Sheets, vol. 1-16. These can be ordered from the Geological Survey of Denmark. Exploration data in Denmark are in most cases, subject to a 5-year confidentiality period. Therefore, the tables of wells drilled after mid-1986 only show data released by the Danish Energy Agency, such as location, total depth and lithostratigraphic unit at total depth. A few new wells have been released, however, due to relinquished concessions. These wells (Borg-1, Felicia-I, lbenholt-1, Mejrup-1) are presented with full data sets. Furthermore, DONG has permitted release of data from the Stenlille-2, -3, -4, -5, and -6 wells. The authors acknowledge the work of their colleagues who contributed to the database, especially Ole Vejbæk and Jens Jørgen Møller who initiated the data base together with Jens Christian Olsen. Heinke Andersen, Bent Katz, and Uli Heyden are thanked for technical assistance. Jon Ineson (Geological Survey of Denmark) and Olaf Michelsen (University of Arhus) made valuable comments on the manuscript.

Et rids af Grundtvig-forskningen og dens stilling i efterkrigens Danmark. William Michelsen in memoriam [A sketch o f Grundtvig scholarship and its position in postwar Denmark. In memory of William Michelsen]By Kim Arne PedersenWith the death of William Michelsen a distinct era in the history of Gr scholarship reached its close, for he was the last surviving member of the small circle who (gathered in Bishop C. I. Scharling’s residence in Ribe for Gr’s birthday ) celebrated on the stroke of midnight the founding of The Grundtvig Society of 8th September 1947 [Grundtvig-Selskabet af 8. September 1947] which was to prove such an important initiative in Danish academic activity and in Danish culture more widely. In the forthcoming reinstatement of Gr in the mainstream of Danish scholarship and debate Michelsen was to maintain a long, unstinting and untiring involvement, both through his own scholarly output and through the encouragement, advice and criticism he offered to younger and rising scholars.Michelsen was markedly the product of his own background in a middleclass family linked over two generations with teaching, a liberal theological outlook and a quiet Christian piety in the home. Similarly, the motives and objectives of his involvement with Gr over his long working-life were distinctly responsive to the times through which he lived, and not least to the threats posed to democracy in the twentieth century by totalitarian regimes.Like others of his distinguished contemporaries, notably his lifelong friend Henning Høirup, he perceived Gr as »our contemporary« whose life-work remained of living relevance and should be accorded a functional place within the national cultural inheritance.Though not a theologian by formal education, Michelsen along with his generation came to be influenced by Karl Barth’s insistence that the revealed word of God must be the premise of any confession. This principle inspired his own studies of Gr’s thought-world, and particularly of Gr’s thesis of history, which in turn led him to see that religious idealism alone was not a sufficient response to the actualities of living in the present moment. Here he was also fairly clearly influenced by Hal Koch who, during the years of the German occupation of Denmark in the Second World War, was most instrumental in presenting Gr as his generation’s contemporary.With fellow-scholars such as Høirup and Regin Prenter, Michelsen found Gr’s authorship informed not only by Christianity’s radical profession of the forgiveness of sins but also, equally importantly, of a creation-theology which for them made it possible to harmonise the modem world’s scientific awareness with a belief that life and the universe were created by God. His contribution to the anthology Grundtvig og grundtvigianismen i nyt lys [Gr and grundtvigianism in a new light] (1983) is a key discussion of Gr’s conversion in 1810 and Gr’s relationship to Søren Kierkegaard. Various of Michelsen’s writings set forth Gr’s historical perspective as being based upon a mosaicchristian view, in a consciousness of Gr’s shift from faith to knowledge, from church to school around the critical year 1832. The view that he and Kai Thaning constitute opposite poles misrepresents the affinities and distinctions carefully drawn by Michelsen himself (‘Brev til en Grundtvigforsker’ [Letter to a Gr-scholar] in Dansk Udsyn 1964,443); nevertheless, his analysis of Gr’s universal-historical work formulates a significant challenge to Thaning’s reading of Gr and demonstrates the sense in which Gr was, as Michelsen later wrote in Grundtvig Studier 1983, ‘Sin samtids kritiker’ [Critic of his own times].After early work on H. C. Ørsted, Michelsen wrote his doctoral thesis, published as Tilblivelsen af Grundtvigs historiesyn [The formulation of Gr’s view of history] (Copenhagen, 1954). During this period (1941) he married Signe, niece of the Greenland explorer Knud Rasmussen who was herself an authority on Greenland and collaborated in translating Gr into the Greenlandic language. His doctoral thesis was based on an examination of the works Gr is known to have studied in his formative years (though he has been criticised for exaggerating the cohesion of the sources of influence upon Gr) out of which Gr shaped a view of history which was not a learned construct or theory but a conscious expression of the picture he formed for himself of existence.Michelsen depicts Gr as standing in opposition to the contemporary compromise between Christianity and romanticism, and as allowing the biblical perspective of history to model his own exposition of history.Characteristically, when his doctoral thesis was eventually overshadowed by the work of Sigurd Aa. Aames (1961) with its different approach, methodology and findings, Michelsen responded constructively (Grundtvig Studier 1962). Meanwhile he had been extending his own exploration of the way in which Gr’s Christian view of history developed after 1810, in Den sælsomme forvandling i N. F. S. Grundtvigs liv [The strange Metamorphosis inNFSG’slife] (1956). His two studies together raised issues-concerning for example Gr’s relationship to Lutheran tradition, his view of the divine image in man, and affinities between Gr and Kiekegaard’s existential standpoint - which ought to have generated a greater scholarly response than has been the case.Many of Michelsen’s articles in Grundtvig Studier remain indispensable items for students and researchers. He made a distinguished contribution to the great catalogue of the Grundtvig archives in the Royal Library, Copenhagen. Much work (in which his son Knud collaborated) on the transcription of unprinted Gr manuscripts and the identification of textual correlations illustrative of Gr’s philosophical thinking remains unpublished - though the big two-part introduction to Gr’s thought as reflected in his Danne-Virke (Grundtvig Studier 1985-86) to some extent compensates for this. Michelsen’s appointment (1968) to a lectureship in Aarhus University, in fulfilment of Professor Gustav Albeck’s desire to give Gr a central place in Danish studies, coincided with turbulent times which he did not find easy, but the fruits of his teaching are seen in the long series of fine articles by his pupils in Grundtvig Studies, of which he became an editor in 1969, scrupulously active to the last. In 1997 he was honoured by the Grundtvig-Selskab upon its Fiftieth Anniversary. He was an active participant in the newly-founded Grundtvig Academy in Vartov, in 2000.With William Michelsen’s death a notable Christian humanist and scholar has passed on. May his memory be held in honour.

Full textAbstract:
The introduction of regular religious life in the Nordic region is less well-documented than in the neighbouring kingdoms of northern Europe. In the absence of well-preserved manuscript and material remains, unfounded and sometimes distorting suppositions have been made about the timeline of monastic settlement and the character of the conventual life it brought. Recent archival and archaeological research can offer fresh insights into these questions. The arrival of authentic regular life may have been as early as the second quarter of the eleventh century in Denmark and Iceland, but there was no secure or stable community in any part of Scandinavia until the turn of the next century. A settled monastic network arose from a compact between the leadership of the secular church and the ruling elite, a partnership motivated as much by the shared pursuit of political, social and economic power as by any personal piety. Yet, the force of this patronal programme did not inhibit the development of monastic cultures reflected in books, original writings, church and conventual buildings, which bear comparison with the European mainstream.

Full textAbstract:
IntroductionThe The BIOlogical Dose OPTimisation (BIODOPT) trial is a pragmatic, multicentre, randomised controlled, open-label, parallel-group, equivalence study designed to evaluate tapering of biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) in sustained clinical remission or low disease activity (LDA). Traditionally, these patients maintain standard dosage of bDMARD lifelong; however, recent studies indicate that a significant proportion of patients in sustained remission or LDA can taper their bDMARD and maintain stable disease activity. Thus, this trial aims to evaluate whether a disease activity-guided tapering strategy for bDMARDs will enable a significant dosage reduction while maintaining disease activity compared with usual care. From the individual patient’s standpoint as well as from a societal perspective, it would be advantageous if bDMARDs could be reduced or even discontinued while maintaining disease activity.Methods and analysisA total of 180 patients with RA, PsA or axSpA treated with bDMARDs and in clinical remission/LDA during the past 12 months will be enrolled from four centres in Denmark. Patients will be randomised in a ratio of 2:1 to either disease activity-guided tapering of bDMARDs (intervention group) or continuation of bDMARDs as usual care (control group).The primary objective is the difference between the two groups in the proportion of patients who have reduced their inclusion dosage of bDMARDs to 50% or less while maintaining stable disease activity at 18 months follow-up.Ethics and disseminationThe study is approved by the ethics committee of Northern Jutland, Denmark (N-20170073) and by the Danish Medicine Agency. Patient research partner KHH contributed to refinement of the protocol and approved the final manuscript. Results will be disseminated through publication in international peer-reviewed journals.Trial registration number2017-001970-41; Pre-results.

This update is my first in two years, having foregone my annual update in the 2022 volume to give as much space as possible to our authors and reviewers. The year 2022 began with a special issue, “The Neuroscience of Film,” guest edited by Vittorio Gallese and Michele Guerra, followed by two issues comprising original research articles and book reviews by authors based in Australia, Canada, China, Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands, Russia, and the United States. I am heartened by both the research and the geographical inclusivity of our journal and our society. I'm grateful to all three of our associate editors for their efforts, and I wish to offer special thanks to Aaron Taylor for his work as book review editor—a job he has taken up with a particular focus on outreach to colleagues who share the interests of the journal and society but have not yet attended a conference, become a member, or submitted a manuscript. Building connections within and across disciplines is crucial to the continued success of SCSMI and Projections, so please: do what you can to spread the word by circulating calls, renewing your institution's subscription, and the like.
