Mother Of Scandinavian: SAS, A Scandinavian Air League with a Polar Path Scandinavian Airlines em, a network not only of the north but of all Europe, and now, with its ; to Tokyo, Argentina-Chile and Johannesburg, a five-continent "big fellow," been a maker of air history from its primitive start in 1919, when Denmark,then the other Scandinavian lands, formed individual air lines that have 3 been merged.
Big history was made late in 1952, when SAS flew its first test flights of mercial planes from Los Angeles to Copenhagen by the Polar Route.
6. Icelandic Literature, Ancient and Modern I must allow literature to make an intrusion here that I admit is unique in the pattern of this book. The 12th- and 13th-century sagas of this remote island are the "mother lode" from which Scandinavian literature as a whole was mined.
A thousand cascades, varying in form and voice from those that flutter and whisper, like the Seven Sisters of the Geirangerfjord, to those that rage and roar, like the giant V0ringfoss, near the Hardangerfjord, add action to majesty. There is an athletic quality to much of Norway's scenery, a quality that quickens the pulse and taunts the slothful spirit.
Norway is the mother of Scandinavian life, as Iceland is the grandmother. She has weathered a thousand years in terms of civilization and is indeterminably ancient in terms of geology, but the venerable dame never wearies. Her eye is not dimmed nor her natural strength abated. She wields her multitude of forces with assurance. Mile-high mountains are her sinews, glaciers and wide snow fields her sources of power.
