Kristiania Bohemians
The Kristiania Bohemians ( no, Kristiania-bohemen) were a political and cultural movement in the 1880s centered in Kristiania (now Oslo). Hans Jæger was the central figure in the movement, and other prominent members included Christian Krohg, Oda Krohg, Jon Flatabø, Haakon Nyhuus, and Nils Johan Schjander. The Kristiania Bohemians were naturalist artists and belonged to the period of Naturalism, but the clear emphasis that they placed on feelings also points towards the next literary period, Neo-Romanticism. The movement consisted of about twenty men and a few women, and others loosely associated with the movement, such as Arne Garborg. The Kristiania Bohemians are also known for their Nine Bohemian Commandments, which had its origins in an article published in ''Impressionisten'' no. 8 in February 1889 and is often attributed to Hans Jæger. However, in the biographical novel ''Jæger – en rekonstruksjon'' (Jæger: A Reconstruction), Ketil Bjørnstad Ketil Bjørnsta ...

People From Tokke
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...
