The seter as a transgressive allegorical home -- Cabin, class, and nation -- The hunter's cabin as anti-modern retreat -- The golden age of cabin therapy -- The post-cabin in late modernity
Summary
Vacation cabins are ubiquitous in Norway, with roughly half the population using them on a regular basis. Through analysis of literary representations of cabins, this book demonstrates that while one tends to think of cabin culture as essentially unchanging over a long span of time, it has in fact changed dramatically over the past two centuries, and that it is an extremely rich and complex cultural phenomenon deeply imbedded in the construction of national identity. <br />
