The Lunar Dynasty
Brahma had produced seven sons using his mental powers. These were great sages. Atri was one of them. He married Anasuya, who conceived a son named Som. Som means moon in Hindi and the lunar dynasty is named after this son of sage Atri. Pururava was the founder of this dynasty. The heroes of the Mahabharata war between the Kauravas and the Pandavas were also from this lineage.

The life of a merchant marine (part II)
During WWII, 706 Norwegian merchant vessels were lost and over 3,600 seamen killed. While there are many chapters written glorifying the bravery of Norwegian sailors during WWII, there are few that seek to understand their experience in personal, rather than militaristic or nationalistic terms, nor do they explore the high rate of divorce, out of wedlock births, and suicides during this period and after. German occupation and the war worsened conditions for Norwegians at home and abroad, not only by interfering with industry, education, and food supply, but also by disrupting a pattern of sea-faring traditions and exacerbating the already present tension within coastal culture. (Part 2 of 2, including references).

Princess Martha Louise Marries Today
Princess Martha Louise, the eldest child of Norway’s King Harald and Queen Sonja will marry Norwegian author Ari Behn late this afternoon. Though the level of controversy surrounding this wedding does not equal that of her brother’s marriage to Mette Marit last August, there is still some talk that this event represents yet another blow to the Norwegian Monarchy.

Nothing can be like it was: Merete Morken Andersen and Oceans of Time
Oceans have a way of closing in behind you. For a moment, you are there, bobbing in the briny water with the sun glancing off your skin. Then you are under, gone without a trace as those you’ve left behind search for answers to your disappearance. In much the same way, suicide is a death that defies description; it is a disappearance that seeks explanation, not in the act itself, but in the waves that have engulfed it. It is this sort of shadow-play that has propelled Norwegian author Merete Morken Andersen’s <I>Oceans of Time</I> to international recognition.

Euphoria and Dysphoria in Norway's Vestfold Dialect - part I
Among linguists, anthropologists, psychologists, and philosophers, there’s a growing interest in the relevance and accuracy of translating particular key cultural concepts into a foreign language or distant time. How accurately can we represent another culture’s sentiments through word-for-word translations? If certain concepts can be claimed to be universal, which ones are they? As the Vestfold dialect of Norway’s southern region is the one I have most familiarity with, I have chosen to focus on this dialect to go over the most commonly used terms and concepts of euphoric and dysphoric emotions in Norwegian.

Norwegian Jokes about Swedes (Part II of II)
The jokes above represent a series of contrasts to define what Norwegians are and what Swedes are not: Norwegians are rational, Swedes are not; Norwegians are intelligent, Swedes are not; Norwegians have well-developed characters, Swedes do not; and so on. Embedded in these jokes we find not only the good natured rivalry between Norway and Sweden, but information about the values in which Norwegians pride themselves – intelligence, analytical skill, character, and common sense.

Norwegian Word Play (Part I of II)
I’ve heard it said that you don’t really know a language until you get the jokes. This is particularly true with Norwegian, where so many of the jokes rely on clever word play and puns. I see no reason, however, why you can’t learn language through the study of word play. Not only are jokes a fun way to approach language learning, they’re also chock-full of cultural information and can make great conversation starters (so long as you watch who you’re talking to).

Alf Proysen (Part III of III)
Writing in his distinctive dialect, Prøysen reveals a regional pride that warmly recalls the heart of the country. His songs are touchingly nationalistic in that they focus, not on the grandiose political themes of a European nation, but on the personal details of family, childhood, and home: picking apples and blueberries, walking to school, and the acquisition of something neat and mysterious.

Norwegian Jokes about Swedes (Part I of II)
Regardless of how good relations are between neighboring countries, it’s always possible to find jokes in these nations expressing animosity toward one another. Jokes about one’s neighbor serve as a kind of conceptual border between ethnicities – they differentiate two nations by drawing real or imagined contrasts between the inhabitants of both, implying the superiority of one by highlighting the inferiority of the other. Such is the case with Norwegian jokes about Swedes.

Alf Proysen: Part I of III
A noted Norwegian singer and children's writer, Alf Prøysen's lyric stories appealed to a wide audience including both children and adults. His characters and observations carried strong nationalistic and anti-authoritarian overtones, transgressing the same class boundaries that he had been acutely aware of in his childhood. His ability to locate the humorous, the hopeful, and the romantic in the stark landscape of struggle and poverty made him one of the most pentetrating Norwegian folk artists of the 20th century.

Barnetro (Part I of II)
Translated variously as childhood "faith," "belief," "superstition," "innocence," "foolishness," "gullibility," and "naiveté," the Norwegian term <i>barnetro</i> is a difficult one to pin down. Used most commonly in reference to religion, it's easy to mistake the word as simply mapping on to conceptions of Christian faith and childlike trust in God. Despite this, as a brief look at the term's usage in song and poetry, it's evident that barnetro has broader applications.
