	Danish language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Danish also holds official status and is a mandatory subject in school in the former Danish colonies of Greenland and the Faroe Islands, that now enjoy limited autonomy.
		Danish is the official language of Denmark, one of two official languages of Greenland (the other is Greenlandic), and one of two official languages of the Faeroes (the other is Faeroese).
		Danish is also prone to a considerable reduction and assimilation of both consonants and vowels even in formal standard language.

		A claim which had to be taken with a pinch of salt, but which, seen from the individual child’s point of view, was indeed true: this child had read every single book which he or she found inviting in accordance with his or her personal taste and stage of development.
		Silas is a well-known figure from a Danish children’s book series; he has survived for four decades and each book - twelve in all - is characterised by the decade in which it was written.

	Soren Kierkegaard [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		The pseudonym Constantin Constantius congratulates the Danish language on the word "Gjentagelse" [repetition], which more literally means "taking again." The emphasis in the Danish, then, is on the action involved in the repetition of faith rather than on the intellection involved in recollection.
		These devices are meant to undermine the authority of the author, so any "truths" contained in the text cannot merely be learned by rote or appropriated "objectively." Instead, the text is meant to supply a polished surface in which the reader comes to see him or herself.
		The human author of a work of love must disappear in the act of love, so that only the love is perceived and only God is recognized as its author.

	Increased parental mortality after death of a child
		Danish authors of a study in this week's issue of THE LANCET provide strong evidence for the first time that experiencing the death of a child increases the mortality rate of parents-with mothers being far more likely to die early than fathers.
		Jørn Olsen and colleagues from the University of Aarhus, Denmark, used data from Danish death registries from 1980-96 to assess whether child death was linked to an increased risk of parental death compared with parents who had not experienced death of a child.
		Around 20,000 parents who had experienced death of a child were compared with a control population of 293,000 parents whose children were alive.

	Frederick Delius and Danish Literature (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		But if it was the magnificent Norwegian landscape that, understandably, first attracted Delius and aroused his interest in the Scandinavian languages, it was the literature of Denmark that came to have greatest importance for his artistic development.
		After having found inspiration in the works of Bjørnson and Ibsen for several compositions in the 1880s, during the following 20 years or so it was to Danish authors that he turned for the themes and texts of some of his most important works.
		His first Danish "collaborator", as early as 1885, was naturally H. Andersen ("To brune øjne"), followed, almost equally naturally, by Holger Drachmann (Sakuntala, for tenor and orchestra) in 1889.

		Danish authors of a study in this week’s issue of THE LANCET provide reassurance to pregnant women—maternal fever in the early stages of pregnancy is probably not a risk factor for miscarriage or stillbirth.
		Increased maternal body temperature can cause fetal death in some animals, which has lead to the suspicion that maternal fever early in pregnancy (when embryonic development is at a critical stage) could have a similar effect in the human population.
		Anne-Marie Nybo Andersen and colleagues at the Danish Epidemiology Science Centre, Statens Serum Institut in Copenhagen and the University of Copenhagen, Denmark interviewed around 24,000 women who were recruited in the first half of pregnancy to the Danish National Birth Cohort Study.

	Anthropology and Authority
		Outside Denmark, Danish literature was long understood in terms of a paradigm cultivated in North America—Andersen, Kierkegaard, and Blixen, with a retrospective nod to the sagas: in short, a narrow approach.
		The conditions are thus in place for the continued internationalization of topics and authors with Danish roots.
		Another reason to avoid the literary is that, for researchers who are not native to Danish, it is difficult to understand Kierkegaard’s extremely nuanced use of language, his style, and his work’s entire literary side, including his dialogue with the tradition, which he inscribes intertextually in the pages of his work.
