Description

With this exhibition ARoS seeks to challenge our existing view of the Golden Age by introducing visitors to a range of new and perhaps unexpected views of the Danish Golden Age. In relation to this wish and as an accompaniment to the exhibition, this illustrated and research-based catalogue in Danish and English with contributors from universities and museums, places the Golden Age in new contexts in relation to the literary, technological and scientific trends of the time. The historian Hans Vammen writes about Danish society in the Golden Age and the literary academic Dan Ringgaard focuses on Hans Christian Andersen and the Danish authors of the day. The science historian Helge Kragh throws light on Hans Christian Ørsted and science during the Golden Age, and Jette Baagøe, the director of the Danish Museum of Hunting and Forestry, writes about the genuine Danish forest. Exhibition: Aros, Aarhus, Denmark (18.5.-20.10.2013).
