Essays focusing on the artistic innovations of Scandinavian fin de siècles. This collection of essays by eminent Scandinavists focusses on works and artistic movements prominent towards the ends of the last four centuries. The last decade of each century has seen amazing innovations in Scandinavian arts, especially in literature: the flowering of genres in national languages in the 1600s, the bawdy rococo voice of Carl Michael Bellman in the 1700s, the rise of Scandinavian drama with August Strindberg and Henrik Ibsen and the neoromanticism of the premodernistic novels of Hamsun. Each essay is a study from the unique perspective of one of the field's foremost European or American scholars and is inspired by the Renaissance interests of the Norwegian scholar Harlad S. Naess. The collection as a whole contributes to the creation of a modern, multilayered view of the beginnings and endings of the seventeenth-, eighteenth-, nineteenth- and twentieth-century worlds in Scandinavia and Scandinavian America.

People with fluent aphasia have problems both in speaking and in understanding spoken language. Typically, their speech is replete with such errors where sounds shift, words blend, or, in the most severe cases, utterances are formed of non-existing words that sound like, but are not words of, the speaker's language. Furthermore, due to their comprehension disorder, fluent aphasics are generally considered to be unaware of the errors in their speech. Taking this into account, what form do the conversations of these speakers take? Which aphasic features trouble the conversation and how are the problems repaired? Or, are they? If fluent aphasics are not aware of their errors, why should they re...
