Gunnr
Gunnr (alternatively ''guðr'') is an Old Norse term meaning "battle". It is the name of a valkyrie in Norse mythology, and was also used as a feminine given name. The modern forms ''Gun'' and ''Gunn'' remain in use as a feminine given name in Scandinavia. The word is from Proto-Germanic '' *gunþiz'', which is a common element of Germanic names not only in North but also in West Germanic, as second element especially frequent in feminine names (as in Hildegund), as first element also in masculine names (as in Gunther). The earliest attestation of the name is on the Rök Stone where it occurs as part of a kenning for wolf: :Þat sagum tvalfta, hvar hæstʀ se Gunnaʀ etu vettvangi a, kunungaʀ tvaiʀ tigiʀ svað a liggia. :"I say this the twelfth, where the horse of Gunnr sees fodder on the battlefield, where twenty kings lie." Valkyrie Gunnr is also mentioned in the ''Völuspá'' in a list of valkyries, ''Gunnr, Hildr, Göndul / ok Geirskögul''. The ''Darraðarljóð'' gives ' ...

Gun Hellberg
A gun is a ranged weapon designed to use a shooting tube (gun barrel) to launch projectiles. The projectiles are typically solid, but can also be pressurized liquid (e.g. in water guns/water cannon, cannons, spray nozzle, spray guns for spray painting, painting or pressure washing, projected water disruptors, and technically also flamethrowers), gas (e.g. light-gas gun) or even charged particles (e.g. plasma torch, plasma gun). Solid projectiles may be free-flying (as with bullets and artillery shells) or tethered (as with Taser guns, spearguns and harpoon guns). A large-caliber gun is also called a ''cannon''. The means of projectile propulsion vary according to designs, but are traditionally effected pneumatically by a high gas pressure contained within the barrel tube, produced either through the rapid exothermic combustion of propellants (as with firearms), or by mechanical compression (as with air guns). The high-pressure gas is introduced behind the projectile, pushing ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Jan Myrdal
Jan Myrdal (19 July 1927 – 30 October 2020) was a Swedish author known for his strident Maoist, anti-imperialist and contrarian views and heterodox and highly subjective style of autobiography. Family Born in Bromma, Stockholm, in 1927, Jan Myrdal was the son of two of Sweden's most influential 20th century intellectuals, Nobel Laureates Alva Myrdal (née Reimer) and Gunnar Myrdal, and the brother of Sissela Bok and Kaj Fölster. Through his sister Sissela, Myrdal was the brother-in-law of Dean of Harvard Law School and longtime president of Harvard University, Derek Bok. Myrdal married four times. His first two wives, Maj Lidberg (1952-1956) and Nadja Wiking (1948-1952), bore him two children, Janken Myrdal (with Wiking) and Eva Myrdal (with Lidberg). Myrdal left both wives and their children at a young age, and, for most of his life, he would live with his third wife (1926–2007). A graphic artist and photographer, she illustrated many of his works. After Kessle's death, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
