1. Ljuset från mörkaste Småland - Orrefors belysningsarmaturer under åren 1916 – 1949
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för konsthistoria och visuella studierSammanfattning : The Light from darkest Småland Lighting products from Orrefors during the period 1916 – 1949 The Light from darkest Småland (a region in southern Sweden where Orrefors is located) aims to take a closer look at the lighting production at Orrefors glass works during the period from 1916, when artist Simon Gate was employed as Orrefors’ first artistic advisor, to 1949 when the transition from an experi¬mental activity where lighting products were produced as art glass to an industrial production can be considered as complete. The three main topics that this bachelor’s thesis covers are (i) the general deve¬lopment of the lighting production at Orrefors during the period, (ii) what main internal and external factors that can be identified as drivers for this development, and (iii) what signs that can be found in the products themselves that illustrate these drivers.

3. THE CHOSEN CREATURES: HOW ANIMAL JUXTAPOSITIONS IN ANTISEMITIC PROPAGANDA CONTRIBUTED TO INSTITUTIONALIZED OTHERNESS
Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för filosofi, lingvistik och vetenskapsteoriSammanfattning : This paper discusses how anthropomorphic animals have been used in depicting Jews in antisemitic art and propaganda imagery since the late High Middle Ages until the first half of the 20th century. It sheds light on why certain animal species were chosen to symbolize Jews, and categorizes the animals into three groups: creatures taken from the Hebrew Scriptures and the Jewish folklore inspired by it, animals presented in secular and pagan folklore influenced by legends from Ancient Greece and Rome, and the “anti-charismatic” fauna.
