editI don't think this Opera (Aniara) was witten in 1968 - that was the year Karl-Birger Blomdahl died. I think it Premiered May 31, 1959 at the Royal Swedish Opera, in Stockholm. I also think Harry Martinsons book Aniara was written in 1956 - not 1953. --Kricke
- I have the old Caprice recording of Blomdahl's Aniara, and in the booklet it says that Martinson's book is 1956, but doesn't say if that's when he wrote it or when it was published. It does say that some of Aniara was previously published in Cikada which was 1953. I can't see an exact date for the composition of the opera, but it does seem to have been premiered in 1959. I'll change the article accordingly, and when I get round to reading the booklet in full (there's a lot of it) I'll update the article a bit more. --Camembert
I'm no expert on the subject, but you might want to know that the Swedish Wikipedia article states that Martinson initiated the work in 1953, when he was upset to learn about the first Soviet detonation of a hydrogen bomb - the Soviet intervention in Hungary occurred three years later. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.247.23.50 (talk) 19:50, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
Karin Boye
editA "see also" about Karin Boye and her Kallocain has been recently removed. While I agree that she and it are not directly related to the subject of the present article, I personally like such somewhat tangential, almost unexpected references to other articles of the kind "if you are interested in this subject, then you might also be interested..." This function is often fulfilled by categories, or by bona fide wikilinks, but I believe that such apparently spurious links, within reason, might be more helpful than not, leading to serendipitous discoveries, or just to a more complete understanding of some more general subject. Is there some specific guideline? Any opinions? Goochelaar (talk)
- The guideline in question is at WP:ALSO. I feel that the connection is so tangential as to constitute original research, and thus inappropriate. It is no more directly relevant than a myriad other Scandinavian SF works of the mid-20th century. --Orange Mike | Talk 12:40, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
- I see, thanks. So probably what I'd be interested in, in this case, is some "Scandinavian SF" (or by single nations, or whatever) category. I'll look it up or, if it does not exist, try and create it myself. Bye, Goochelaar (talk) 12:29, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
- There is a (stub) article on Norwegian science fiction, but no others (except the paragraph on SF fandom in Sweden). There is no [[Category: Scandinavian science fiction]], although there are categories for the SF of a number of specific countries (see Category:Science fiction by nationality). --Orange Mike | Talk 12:41, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

the story how the poem was created
edit- According to Martinson, he dictated the initial cycle as in a fever after a troubling dream, affected by the Cold War and the Soviet suppression of the 1956 Hungarian revolution
- The first 29 cantos of Aniara had previously been published in Martinson's collection Cikada (1953)
let me doubt that hungarian stuff unless martinson invented the time machine 5.143.30.77 (talk) 15:55, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
