Við sögðum í dag frá málþingi sem fór fram fyrir nokkru þar sem leikskólamál voru rædd og yfirskriftin var: Bara pláss? Fagmennska og gæði í leikskólastarfi. Málþingið var hluti af fyrirlestraröð Menntavísindasviðs HÍ, Efst á baugi. Leikskólinn er fyrsta skólastigið og byggir á fagmennsku, þekkingu og skýrum gildum um réttindi barna, leik og vellíðan. Á sama tíma hefur umræða í samfélaginu í auknum mæli snúist um aðgengi, biðlista og rekstrarlegar áskoranir. Kolbrún Pálsdóttir, forseti Menntavísindasviðs HÍ og Sara Margrét Ólafsdóttir, dósent í menntunarfræðum ungra barna og formaður námsleiðar í leikskólakennarafræðum,komu í þáttinn í dag. Við litum svo við á Þjóðskjalasafni Íslands og hittum fyrir Helgu Lilju Bergmann sem sýndi okkur vef Þjóðskjalasafnsins þar sem hægt er að finna ótrúlega margt, s.s. á slóðinni www.heimildir.is þar sem finna má t.d. gamlar kirkjubækur. Safnið fær margar beiðnir í viku frá fólki sem vill finna heimildir en nú er t.d. búið að skanna inn allar gamlar kirkjubækur fram til 1960-70 svo hægt sé að leita í þeim uppá eigin spýtur. Lesandi vikunnar í Mannlega þættinum var svo Sigurlín Bjarney Gísladóttir kennari og rithöfundur. Við fengum hana til að segja okkur frá því hvaða bækur hún hefur verið að lesa undanfarið og hvaða bækur og höfundar hafa haft mest áhrif á hana í gegnum tíðina. Sigurlín talaði um eftirfarandi bækur og höfunda: Þúsund og einn hnífur og fleiri sögur frá Írak e. Hassan Blasim í þýðingu Sölva Björns Sigurðssonar Þríleikur (Things I don't want to know, The cost of living og Real estate) e. Deborah Levy The white road:Journey into an obsession e. Edmund de Waal Mountains of the mind: A history of fascination e. Robert MacFarlane Biblían, Þórarinn Eldjárn, Vigdís Grímsdóttir, Kristín Eiríksdóttir og Tomas Tranströmer Tónlist í þættinum í dag: Hvar er tunglið / Kristjana Stefánsdóttir (Sigurður Flosason) Ég vil fara upp í sveit / Ellý Vilhjálms (Carasella, texti Jón Sigurðsson) Töfrar / Silfurtónar (Júlíus Heimir Ólafsson) UMSJÓN: GUÐRÚN GUNNARSDÓTTIR OG GUNNAR HANSSON

A fascinating story of how three musicians, who escaped the Nazis, inspired Iceland's modern classical music. In Iceland in the 1930s, classical music was only beginning to be seriously practiced, at the same time when musicians of Jewish heritage were fleeing Nazi Germany and Austria. Despite the country's strict immigration policy, three outstanding young musicians were allowed to settle there: Robert Abraham, Heinz Edelstein, and Victor Urbancic. Their influence on Iceland's music scene as conductors, instrumentalists, teachers, and scholars proved invaluable. In Music at World's End: Three Exiled Musicians from Nazi Germany and Austria and Their Contribution to Music in Iceland (SUNY Press, 2025) the first in-depth study of the lives and careers of these three musicians, musicologist Árni Ingólfsson examines their formative years in Germany and Austria, their dramatic escapes from the Nazi regime, and their triumphs and frustrating setbacks in their new homeland, a country in which Jews were virtually unknown. This fascinating case study is a valuable addition to studies of musical exile during World War II and beyond. Learn more about your ad choices.

In Jón Leifs and the Musical Invention of Iceland (Indiana University Press, 2019), Árni Heimir Ingólfsson provides a striking account of the dramatic career of Iceland's iconic composer. Leifs (1899–1968) was the first Icelander to devote himself fully to composition at a time when a local music scene was only beginning to take form. He was a fervent nationalist in his art, fashioning an idiosyncratic and uncompromising 'Icelandic' sound from traditions of vernacular music with the aim to legitimize Iceland as an independent, culturally empowered nation. In addition to exploring Leifs's career, Ingólfsson provides detailed descriptions of Leifs's major works and their cultural contexts. Leifs's music was inspired by the Icelandic landscape and includes auditory depictions of volcanos, geysers, and waterfalls. The raw quality of his orchestral music is frequently enhanced by an expansive percussion section, including anvils, stones, sirens, bells, ships' chains, shotguns, and cannons. Largely neglected in his own lifetime, Leifs's music has been rediscovered in recent years and hailed as a singular and deeply original contribution to twentieth-century music. Jón Leifs and the Musical Invention of Iceland enriches our understanding and appreciation of Leifs and his music by exploring the political, literary and environmental contexts that influenced his work.

In Jón Leifs and the Musical Invention of Iceland (Indiana University Press, 2019), Árni Heimir Ingólfsson provides a striking account of the dramatic career of Iceland's iconic composer. Leifs (1899–1968) was the first Icelander to devote himself fully to composition at a time when a local music scene was only beginning to take form. He was a fervent nationalist in his art, fashioning an idiosyncratic and uncompromising 'Icelandic' sound from traditions of vernacular music with the aim to legitimize Iceland as an independent, culturally empowered nation. In addition to exploring Leifs's career, Ingólfsson provides detailed descriptions of Leifs's major works and their cultural contexts. Leifs's music was inspired by the Icelandic landscape and includes auditory depictions of volcanos, geysers, and waterfalls. The raw quality of his orchestral music is frequently enhanced by an expansive percussion section, including anvils, stones, sirens, bells, ships' chains, shotguns, and cannons. Largely neglected in his own lifetime, Leifs's music has been rediscovered in recent years and hailed as a singular and deeply original contribution to twentieth-century music. Jón Leifs and the Musical Invention of Iceland enriches our understanding and appreciation of Leifs and his music by exploring the political, literary and environmental contexts that influenced his work.
