The aim of this essay is to illustrate a modern phenomenon, the Olympic Games, by applying the ideas of Mircea Eliade concerning space, time and myth. This literature study is mainly divided in two parts, one descriptive and one analytic. In the first part Eliade?s ideas and some criticism, which has been pointed against his theoretical approaches as well as his character, are presented. In the second part an analysis is carried out, based on the previously presented ideas and elements essential for the Olympics; the idea of the Olympics, the place, the ceremonies, the competition and the concept of individual idolism.I have discussed what seems like gnostic tendencies in Eliade?s ideas, in the sense that both Eliade?s ideas and the concept of Gnosticism argue that knowledge is a necessary condition for salvation, as well as the fact that Eliade and his ideas have not always a pro-Christian approach.

Since Sweden can be considered to be a secular society it is interesting to investigate how different actors experience swimming education in the course syllabus of sports and health education, for practicing Muslim girls in middle and high schools. The investigation is based on qualitative interviews with sports teachers, practicing Muslim girls and the staff of the public swimming center in Växjö. The result shows that swimming education can be somewhat problematic, since the Muslim girls only want to attend lessons that are gender separated. In the public swimming center, there are no pools exclusively intended for women, and there are only a few times available for women every week. However, the teachers stress opportunities instead of obstacles, and the students? experience that their teachers are trying to create possibilities for them to have a gender separated swimming education.

Syftet med denna C-uppsats är att beskriva den redaktionella bloggens format med hjälp av tre huvudfrågor. Fråga ett rör innehåll och ämne i redaktionellt anknutna bloggar, fråga två hur dagstidningar förhåller sig till bloggformatet som en del av utbudet på den egna webbsidan och fråga tre hur bloggen används av och påverkar den journalistiska yrkesrollen.För att besvara fråga ett och tre har jag utfört en kvantitativ innehållsanalys av totalt 30 blogginlägg från tio redaktionellt anknutna bloggar. För att besvara fråga två har jag gått igenom 60 dagstidningars webbsidor och antecknat deras förhållningssätt till bloggar som en del av utbudet.Min undersökning visar att bloggen är en ny typ av genre med outnyttjad potential inom den traditionella journalistiken. Ämnesvalen i blogginläggen rör nöje, sport, spel och ledare. Ett normaliserande av bloggen går att se med exempel där enskilda bloggförfattare håller kvar vid ett traditionellt refererande i skildrandet samt medieföretagens förhållningssätt till bloggen som en del av utbudet på webbsidan.

Den övergripande frågeställningen för uppsatsen är: Vad innebär det ur ett demokratiperspektiv när en abonnerad morgontidning väljer att ge ut en gratistidning för att nå lågresursgrupperna i samhället??. Bakgrunden till frågan är att Helsingborgs dagblad valt att ge ut gratistidningen Xtra Helsingborg för att nå ut i de områden där tidningen har få läsare. Gemensamt för dessa stadsdelar är att de tillhör de fattigaste i Helsingborg och att en större andel av invånarna har utländsk bakgrund än i övriga Helsingborg.Genom att göra en innehållsanalys av Helsingborgs Dagblad och gratistidningen Xtra har jag undersökt vilka innehållsmässiga skillnader det finns mellan tidningarna. Jag har också intervjuat Helsingborgs Dagblads VD Lars Svensson, Xtras chefredaktör Kersti Forsberg och nyhetschefen på HD City Anders Håkansson för att ta reda på vilka tankar man har om skillnader i målgrupp och konkurrensen mellan tidningarna.Innehållsmässigt har Xtra ett större fokus på Nöje, Sport och Opinionsmaterial än HD och bristen på lokal samhällsinformation i Xtra kan skapa stora kunskapsklyftor mellan dem som läser HD och dem som läser Xtra.

The purpose of this paper is to examine how the two Swedish cross-country skiers, Charlotte Kalla and Marcus Hellner are portrayed in the tabloids Aftonbladet and Expressen. The study is based on theories of sports journalism, media- and gender studies. Within these theories there are beliefs that men and women are portrayed differently in sports journalism. Sports journalism is described as a subject where there is a hierarchy in which the man is often framed as dominant in relationship to the woman.This study was made in an attempt to examine whether this was the case in the Swedish tabloid magazines Aftonbladet and Expressens coverage of the winter Olympics. Articles published about Charlotte Kalla and Marcus Hellner in the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, and the Olympic Games in Sochi in 2014 were analyzed by a quantitative content analysis.
