''Fjölnir'' ((:ˈfjœlnɪr̥)) was an Icelandic-language journal published annually in Copenhagen in the years 1835-1847. The journal was founded by the ''Fjölnismenn'' (literally, "men of Fjölnir"), four young Icelandic intellectuals who sought to revive national consciousness in Iceland in the hopes of raising support for Icelandic independence. They were Jónas Hallgrímsson, Konráð Gíslason, Brynjólfur Pétursson and Tómas Sæmundsson. All four were Icelanders who had studied at Bessastaðir and the University of Copenhagen. They all contributed to the publication of the journal until 1838. The fifth annual copy was published and paid for by Tómas Sæmundsson, who had moved back to Iceland, and had it printed in Viðey. Publication then ceased for a few years, as Jónas Hallgrímsson was occupied with his scientific research. A new issue was published in 1843, but at this point two societies, ''Fjölnisfélagið'' and ''Nokkrir Íslendingar'', had taken over publication, led first by Gísli Magnússon and later by Halldór Kr. Friðriksson. The last issue of the journal was published in 1847. It was dedicated to the memory of Jónas Hallgrímsson, who had died in the preceding spring. ''Fjölnir'' introduced romanticism in Icelandic literature and poetry, and many of Jónas Hallgrímsson's romantic poems were first published in the journal. It also spearheaded the revival of national and linguistic consciousness in Iceland. ''Fjölnir'' received a mixed reception among the Icelandic reading public, partly due to eccentric spelling conventions, and the perceived arrogance of the young ''Fjölnismenn''. Nevertheless, it made important contributions to the revival of Icelandic as a written language, and greatly influenced the cultural and political milieu in Iceland. ==External links== *(''Fjölnir'' magazine viewable online ) at timarit.is 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fjölnir (journal)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
