SUMMARY:Language in Decline – Dialogue Instead of Screens
DESCRIPTION:Where: SkálinDuration: 45 min.  \nThere has been considerable debate recently about vocabulary\, mobile phones and PISA studies. What is the situation really like\, and where are we heading when it comes to language? What are the implications of children and young people falling behind in their language skills?

For several years\, he has warned about the negative consequences of digital dependency for children and young people. \nOddfríður Marni Rasmussen\, author and teacher. His experience teaching lower secondary school students has led him to speak out publicly about the gradual decline of the Faroese language. \nJógvan D. Hansen\, associate professor at the University of the Faroe Islands\, has helped audiences gain new insights through the KvF programme series Filosoffarnir\, in which he explores philosophical topics from the history of ideas. \nVár Eydnudóttir\, cultural researcher\, has\, among other things\, written the textbook Mentanarfatan C\, the first Faroese textbook for cultural understanding as a subject at upper secondary level. The book explores topics such as identity\, cultural encounters\, globalisation and youth culture\, drawing on examples from both the Faroe Islands and the wider world. \nJoin us for a discussion of a challenging yet important topic. \nOrganiser: Felagið Føroyamál

SUMMARY:The Authors’ Quarter: Hanus Kamban
DESCRIPTION:Where: ForhøllinDuration: 15 min.  \nAuthor Hanus Kamban reads from his book Úr høvundsins smiðju. \nThe BookIn Úr høvundsins smiðju\, the author has compiled a selection of his most interesting texts – essays\, reflections\, historical\, political and artistic analyses\, reviews\, portraits and tributes – which he has written and published over the past half-century. \nThe book includes discussions of authors such as Sigurd Hoel\, Thomas Mann\, George Orwell and Arthur Koestler and\, turning to the Faroe Islands\, Durita Holm\, Oddvør Johansen and Bergtóra Hanusardóttir. It also features portraits of singers and musicians such as Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan\, poets and playwrights such as Harold Pinter and\, looking back to the 18th century\, the poet\, artist and enigmatic visionary William Blake. \nA comprehensive historical analysis\, divided into four parts\, explains how Iran – originally known as Persia – was already on its way to becoming a democracy in the European sense in 1953\, and how the United States put an end to this progress. In the lecture Carpe Diem\, delivered at Føroya Studentaskúli in 2006\, the topic is “The Humanities and Their Role in a Modern Education System”. \nThe work has three main themes: humanism\, democracy and gender equality. The extensive index of names at the end of the book makes it easy for readers to look up individuals and topics. \nThe Authors’ Quarter is a series of reading events where members of the Faroese Writers’ Association\, Rithøvundafelag Føroya\, who have new books out\, read from their recently published works. \nOrganiser: Rithøvundafelag Føroya

SUMMARY:The Authors’ Quarter: Snorri Brend

Evensen? The local newspaper Norðlýsið had the answer. \nThe altarpiece from 1949 \nThe dramatic altarpiece became Jógvan Waagstein’s final work of art. How did the altarpiece find its way into the church\, and what can this painting\, now approaching 80 years old\, tell us today? \nThe Christmas tie \nMagnus Eliassen\, the church’s regular organist\, also served as a parish clerk. One Christmas Day\, during the service\, he wore his finest Christmas tie. But as he walked around collecting donations for the church\, the tie suddenly began playing Jingle Bells. \nThis is the fifth book published by Snorri Brend. His previous books are: \n\n\nHon fór út (1999) – about Kaja Lamhauge\, who travelled to Nigeria as a missionary at the age of just 23. \n\n\nHetta er okkara bygd (2016) – about the village of Norðdepil\, which celebrated its 150th anniversary. \n\n\nVit liva og virka (2021) – about MEGD\, which celebrated its 40th anniversary. \n\n\nLjósið á Oyruni (2024) – about Hvannasund Church\, which celebrated its 75th anniversary. \n\n\nThe Authors’ Quarter is a series of reading events where members of the Faroese Writers’ Association\, Rithøvundafelag Føroya\, who have new books out\, read from their recently published works. \nOrganiser: Rithøvundafelag Føroya

SUMMARY:Faroese Legends – Heiðrikur á Heygum

Hammershaimb collected and recorded them in the second half of the 19th century. \nNow\, multidisciplinary artist Heiðrikur á Heygum has rewritten a selection of 25 Faroese legends and two traditional Faroese ballads.

SUMMARY:Constructive or Destructive? Literary Criticism in the Nordic Countries
DESCRIPTION:Where: HøllinDuration: 45 min. \nLiterary criticism helps shape how we encounter literature in the public sphere. But can critical reading also be considered an art form in its own right? What kind of poetics underpins criticism\, and what does it mean to review literature in Nordic literary communities\, where circles are often small and everyone knows everyone? What power do literary critics wield\, and what distinguishes literary criticism in the Faroe Islands from that in Denmark? \nThese questions form the starting point for Autor Chap IV\, the fourth publication in Autor’s Nordic chapbook series\, which explores different literary practices and crafts. In this edition\, five critics and literary scholars from across the Nordic region write about the craft\, poetics and conditions of literary criticism. \nPaula Gaard holds a PhD in literary studies from Fróðskaparsetur Føroya\, where she wrote her dissertation on literary criticism in the Faroe Islands. In Autor Chap IV\, she contributes At siga fyri fyrstu ferð tað\, sum longu er sagt\, published in both Faroese and Danish. \nLars Bukdahl is a literary critic and editor who writes\, among other publications\, for Weekendavisen. His contribution to the publication is titled Kritik er en føljeton. \nForlaget Autor was established in connection with Literary Composition at the University of Gothenburg but is entirely independent of the university\, both financially and administratively. Today\, the association is run by alumni of Literary Composition and Literary Translation. Its publications include its own series of written works\, online texts published under the name Autor Eter\, and poetics in the Autor Chap series. \nOrganiser: Autor

In his enthusiastic review of fru s\, published in a September issue of Weekendavisen\, he asks himself when he last encountered literature that emerged from such a compelling foundation as the one on which fru s is built. \nJoin us for an engaging conversation between the acclaimed author and the respected literary critic\, who greatly admires her work. \nfru s is Inger Smærup Sørensen’s second novel. Her debut novel\, Dødsbo\, was published in 2024 and was praised as a distinctive and relevant work.
