Today, most \u2018Norwegian\u2019 books are printed in the Baltics, and the holdings of the National Library are digitized and made publicly accessible from around the world. The intermediate 500 years of Norwegian book history display similar transnational and trans-medial characteristics. How did the book change society? In what way did it influence ideas on children, gender or nationality? Or simply how we consume entertainment? Why has it remained such a powerful and influential medium through the shifting media revolutions?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"s1\">LitCit covered the book medium\u2019s evolvement in Norway from its religious beginnings in 1519 to the emergence of the modern public sphere in the mid-1800s. Books in Scandinavia were on the one hand steeped in a pan European market and tradition, and on the other, they constitute an important and different case of regional and local adaptation, marked by what has been termed \u2018Northern Enlightenment\u2019 and later the phenomenon of Scandinavian <\/span><span class=\"s1\">world literature (Ibsen and Strindberg). Subprojects included studies of books for children, popular literature and translations, literary periodicals and political pamphlets, bibliography and works of History from the hand press period. The project was organized in four work packages (WP): 1) Education, religion and literature, 2) Popular books and new readerships, 3) Moving books: trade and media transformations and 4) The politics of books: Negotiating identity, print and the public sphere.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"s1\">The year 2019 marked the 500th anniversary of the printed book in Norway. Popular and scholarly results included exhibitions at The National Library on the history of books and the development of the public sphere and a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nb.no\/bibliografi\/nor1519\/search\">bibliography of Norwegian books 1519-1850<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"s1\">LitCit brought together an interdisciplinary and international team of media and book historians. Partner institutions were The National Library and the National Archives of Norway, The Universities of Oslo and Troms\u00f8, The University College of Southeast Norway, The Society for Danish Language and Literature, and Cambridge Project for the Book Trust. The project was led by Aina N\u00f8ding, Research Librarian at The National Library. Research Librarian Ruth Hemstad led the project in the period September 2018 to August 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"s1\">LitCit was financed by The Research Council of Norway.

The introduction of periodicals in the seventeenth century shaped the course and rhythm of book circulation, in terms of review journals, serialization of (parts of) books, or book publications of translated periodicals.&nbsp;<i>Bjerring-Hansen<\/i>addresses the Dano-Norwegian periodical press, in particular the transformations of the \u2018learned\u2019 or \u2018literary\u2019 journals. He traces when, how, and why their editorial outlook changed from pan European to an increasingly more local one by the latter 1700s. Another case of local appropriation and adaptation is the famous story of the moral weeklies<i>&nbsp;<\/i>modelled on<i>&nbsp;The Spectator<\/i>, occurring in both periodical and book form.&nbsp;<i>Ertler&nbsp;<\/i>will<i>&nbsp;<\/i>link his work on the literary and cultural patterns of the European spectators to the development of the Dano\u2013Norwegian press, as part of the wider communication system of the printed public sphere in Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><span class=\"s1\">Participants: Aina N\u00f8ding (WP leader), James Raven, Karin Kukkonen, Klaus-Dieter Ertler, Jens Bjerring-Hansen<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"t2-accordion-item wp-block-t2-accordion-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"t2-accordion-title\">\n\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"t2-accordion-trigger\" id=\"work-package-4-:-the-politics-of-books:-negotiating-identity,-print-and-the-public-sphere\" aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-3\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\tWork package 4 : The politics of books: Negotiating identity, print and the public sphere\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-closed-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-add\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M11.7 4.817a.761.761 0 0 0-.384.399c-.07.156-.074.328-.075 3.353l-.001 3.19-3.253.01-3.253.011-.148.1c-.168.114-.346.433-.345.618.002.263.243.605.492.699.076.029 1.148.043 3.31.043h3.197l.001 3.19c.001 3.02.005 3.199.075 3.35.286.619 1.082.619 1.368 0 .07-.151.074-.33.075-3.35l.001-3.19h3.197c2.162 0 3.234-.014 3.31-.043.249-.093.491-.438.491-.697 0-.259-.242-.604-.491-.697-.076-.029-1.148-.043-3.31-.043H12.76l-.001-3.19c-.001-3.02-.005-3.199-.075-3.35-.086-.186-.257-.357-.417-.417a.894.894 0 0 0-.567.014\"\/><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-open-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-remove\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M6 13c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C5.097656 12.519531 5 12.285156 5 12c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C5.480469 11.097656 5.714844 11 6 11h12c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C18.902344 11.480469 19 11.714844 19 12c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C18.519531 12.902344 18.285156 13 18 13Zm0 0\" fill=\"currentColor\" \/><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-accordion-item__inner-container is-layout-flow\" id=\"accordion-panel-3\" aria-labelledby=\"work-package-4-:-the-politics-of-books:-negotiating-identity,-print-and-the-public-sphere\" role=\"region\" hidden>\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Books became a political battleground to control and negotiate under absolutist rule, and remains so today.<i>&nbsp;<\/i>The dual relationship \u2013 repressive, yet productive \u2013 between censorship and print in Denmark\u2013Norway is evident from the story of the influential historian, book collector and prolific publicist P.F.
