Higher Education for Girls in North American College Fiction 1886-1912

Popular Abstract in Swedish Från 1865 och framåt öppnades i nordöstra U.S.A ett antal college där unga kvinnor kunde avlägga en icke yrkesinriktad akademisk examen. Efter några decennier använde några som utexaminerats från dessa institutioner sina erfarenheter i populära berättelser om studenter på college. Avhandlingen visar hur denna utbildning presenteras i skönlitterär form. Fokus ligger på Twenty years after Vassar College welcomed the first American female undergraduates in 1865, the experiences of women college students began to be fictionalized in so-called college stories. This thesis shows how higher education is presented in the novels, collections of short stories, and serialized stories for female readers published before the United States was involved in the First World Wa

A Hardy inequality in twisted waveguides

We show that twisting of an infinite straight three-dimensional tube with non-circular cross-section gives rise to a Hardy-type inequality for the associated Dirichlet Laplacian. As an application we prove certain stability of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian in locally and mildly bent tubes. Namely, it is known that any local bending, no matter how small, generates eigenvalues below the es

Community Arts : On the precarious compromise between the inspirational and the civic worlds

Building on Boltanski’s and Thévenot’s notion of the plurality of forms of worth, the chapter focuses on the tension between the world of art (with an inspirational order of worth) and the community organiser’s world (guided by a civic principle of worth). Empirical material comes from VoS, a non-profit community-arts organization in Sweden. The chapter follows the sequence of events, criticisms,
