3. Cornell University Icelandic Baroque
Icelandic Baroque is a comprehensive analysis of the works of Hallgrímur Pétursson, one of the most significant poets in 17th-century Icelandic literature. The book offers a new perspective on his most famous hymns, the Passíusálmar, and examines their cultural and literary context. By embedding Hallgrímur's writings within the broader history of European literature, particularly concerning Scandinavian and German influences, it creates a deeper understanding of the aesthetic and literary currents of the time. The author, Margrét Eggertsdóttir, highlights the social and cultural conditions that shaped Hallgrímur's work and discusses how baroque theories can contribute to the interpretation of his poetry. The aim is to reassess the literary history of Iceland in the 17th century and to emphasize the significance of Hallgrímur Pétursson in this context.

8. Cornell University The Just City
"The Just City" by Susan S. Fainstein offers an in-depth analysis of urban development from the perspective of justice, democracy, and diversity. Fainstein contrasts the idea of the city as a growth machine with the concept of the just city, where social justice and the needs of disadvantaged communities take center stage. By examining New York, London, and Amsterdam, she highlights the challenges and opportunities that have arisen from neoliberal urban planning. The book provides a historical perspective on urban planning after World War II and discusses current developments aimed at combating growing inequalities in urban spaces. Fainstein's approach encourages urban planners and policymakers to pursue inclusive and equitable urban development that considers both social and economic aspects. The theoretical concepts of justice are applied to concrete issues to demonstrate that significant reforms are possible even at the local level.
