Literary museums today must respond to new challenges; the traditional image of the author’s home museum as a sacred place of literary pilgrimage centered around a national hero has been questioned, and literary museums have begun to develop new strategies centered not only on biography, but also literary texts, imagined spaces, different readers, historical contexts, architectural concepts, and artistic interventions. As this volume shows, the changing of spaces asks how literary museums create new ways of interlinking real and literary spaces, texts, objects, readers, and tourists.

Each volume of the Dictionary of World Biography contains 250 entries on the lives of the individuals who shaped their times and left their mark on world history. This is not a who's who. Instead, each entry provides an in-depth essay on the life and career of the individual concerned. Essays commence with a quick reference section that provides basic facts on the individual's life and achievements. The extended biography places the life and works of the individual within an historical context, and the summary at the end of each essay provides a synopsis of the individual's place in history. All entries conclude with a fully annotated bibliography.

NIDAROS - the Jerusalem of the North - was a very important pilgri- mage destination for centuries - until the Reformation. For some years now, pilgrims again are making their way along St. Olav Ways to Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim in Norway. In his third pilgrimage book about the Ways of St. Olav, Michael Schildmann describes his experiences on this very special Scandinavian track: from Karlstad in Sweden via Inbygda to Nidaros Cathedral. After his succesful German trilogy of the Ways of St. Olav, here you find the thought-provoking diary and guide to a pilgrimage route that not many people have found by now. - Schildmann made his first pilgrimage in 2007 on the Way of St. James from Somport Pass to Santiago de Compostela and Muxia.
