Abstract:
The novel Berge Meere und Giganten was written in 1924. I would like to focus my attention on the 7th book in the novel, whose title is Die Enteisung Grönlands (The Melting of the Polar Ice in Greenland). To begin with, I will give a short summary of what the novel is about. The project to melt Greenland's polar ice forms the culmination of a history of the whole of humanity running from the 20th century all the way until the 27th century. Using all their military and technological might, the heat of the Icelandic volcanoes is captured in solid form and transported by ship to the Arctic. With

Abstract:
The Greenlandic visual artist Nuka K. Godtfredsen and his literary and scientific collaborators have produced a series of four graphic narratives to represent distinct moments in Greenland's history, spanning the pre-colonised and colonial period. These narratives employ aspects of magic realism and adopt an approach to narrative that focuses on the supernatural and presents modes of being that contrast with their audiences' understanding of realities that are ordinarily (only) visible. I argue that these graphic narratives use strategies from speculative fiction that frame the modern European

Abstract:
Signe Rink (1836-1909) published four volumes of fiction in Danish, all of them stories from Greenland of the 19th century: Grønlændere. 1886 (155 pages); Grønlændere og Danske i Grønland. 1887 (204 pages); Koloni-idyler. 1888 (262 pages) and Fra det Grønland som gik. Et par Tidsbilleder fra Trediverne. 1902 (264 pages). Some of the stories are short, some are not short at all, actually, e.g. Rink 1902 consists only of two parts, the first one 205 pages long. The focus here will be on this fiction written by Signe Rink: a case study in how genres of fiction might open up for the possibility of

Abstract:
Georg Brandes’ betydninger i Henrik Pontoppidans Lykke-Per, Grønlands i IsbjørnenGreenlands and man of the modern break-throughLykke-Per and Isbjørnen by Henrik Pontoppidan both seem to contain the author’s opinions on Georg Brandes and Greenland wrapped in fiction. By way of author theory and postcolonial criticism this article argues, however, that the two novels have no narratological or ideological central perspective. They are perhaps best understood as montages of discourses on Brandes and Greenland.

Abstract:
This article examines the representation of climate change and heroic agency in recent European and North American ecothrillers. Through the use of four literary case studies, it shows how heroic figurations support an idea of climate change as a distinct disastrous event. Moreover, the heroic is shown to bring out images of a threatening other, usually in the shape of a distinct villain, who gives shape to forms of diffuse, indirect agencies as they are associated with anthropogenic climate change. In addition, the ideal positions of hero and perpetrator are articulated to larger normative an

Abstract:
Greenland has a political will to become independent, and most of the political parties are in favor of independence. The issue of independence is not a new idea, but it has become more topical in recent decades. The nationalistic movements started already in the 1960s as well-educated Greenlanders in Denmark established protest movements against the Danish state and the way Denmark was treating its former colony. The article sheds light on the political dimension from the start of the first nationalistic movements up to the present. How has the political dimension changed over time? What are

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter considers contemporary acts of appropriation undertaken by Greenlandic filmmakers, as a local feature film industry has only recently emerged in the capital of Nuuk. While there is evidence of postcolonial protest against Denmark’s long dominance over Greenland, Thisted argues that in twenty-first century fiction feature films made in and about Nuuk, Greenland is situated as part of a global network of multicultural practices and representational techniques. Thisted examines Otto Rosing’s and Torben Bech’s Sundance-screened Nuummioq (2009), which is considered the first feature film produced in Greenland, and Angajo Lennert Sandgreen’s Hinnarik Sinnattunilu (2009). The chapter discusses these films as indications of an emerging cinematic autonomy, while Nuummioq’s international release was hampered by the fact that it had not been financed by the Danish Film Institute.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines one of Denmark’s best-known ethnographic fiction feature films, Knud Rasmussen’s The Wedding of Palo (1934), directed by Friedrich Dalsheim, and shot in Western Greenland. While in many ways a documentary in the salvage ethnography tradition of the first part of the twentieth century, and sharing many similarities with Robert Flaherty’s Nanook of the North (1922), Volquardsen examines the significance of this film for the contested geopolitical status of Greenland in the early 1930s. Foregrounding the venerable status of Knud Rasmussen as an explorer and ethnographer in Danish history, this chapter shows how the film continues to be both cherished and mocked as a thwarted historical document for the Greenlandic population. The legacy of this film, showcasing seal-hunts, kayaking tricks, and domestic and cultural traditions (including drum-dancing), has remained significant and occupies a complex position in Denmark-Greenland cultural relations.
