On being in memory for earlier professor by UiO, University in Oslo in Norway, Thomas Hylland Eriksen!
You know, Thomas Hylland Eriksen could a lot, but there were also restrictions and limitations on what he could, and what he could not, but there were many knowledges in his head and his minds and his associations, and he was a man for little Norway up there in the northern and western part of Europe, and we enjoyed his thoughtfulness and for being engaged with making reflections that did the life of the people even good and rich in thoughts and feelings and actions when we are here, and he also made some contributions on scientific programs on TV, and also on the TV-program News on the news when we were where we were.
So, Thomas Hylland Eriksen was professor in social anthropology, and this is about humans and how we are coming, being and leaving when we are here, and the history of human kind is both sun and darkness, and you know, humans are here to know each other, and for getting in social relations and everything is about making relations, and hence the strongest people are not standing alone as Ibsen meant, but we are standing together with other people when we are here.
So, anthropology is the study about being a human as we are in all kinds and types and aspects when being here, and we are just here to operate as humans as good and as positive as we can, and the reason is that we do not want too many tragical cases of human lives, and too much darkness about all the situations and the conditions we can be within when we are here. And anthropolgy is studying the understanding of the humans, and also about the differences among humans while we are here, and we are here as social, and that means that we are together when we are here. And we are just operating in the life as we are as humans, and humanity is rich in content and in structure, and some have died in natural ways and some in unnatural ways, and some are leaving us in shock and in disbelief, but otherwise things are normal when we are here. And this means that social anthropolgy is the study of how we are as humans when being together of different things and business life, parties, families, friends and talking and chatting with each other, and also when we are just collectively equipped when being in churches, in schools or in a class or in groups when we are as we are, and these things are extremely easy to do research on, and we are here to be as we are when we are here.
So, professor Thomas Hylland Eriksen knew a lot in the sciences, but he did not know of the literature of any kinds anywhere at any places in countries that are around the world, and he knew things to the benefit of the University of Oslo and the environments related to this university when we are here, and we are always leaving the working place alone, but we should think and feel that we are together to any times while we are here. And Thomas Hylland Eriksen wrote books to the pleasure of anyone, and these were over 60 in number, and the books were technical books and non-fiction books and novels, and we are here with potential and good things of being engaged with in the life, when we are knowing that life is complex and a varied story of many stories, and sometimes we are alone when we are here. And Thomas was born on 6 February 1962 in Oslo, and he died as a 62 years old guy, and the day of his dying date was 27 November 2024. And the celebrity status never went to his head, and hence he was professor and just an ordinary guy as you and me when we are here. And Thomas Hylland Eriksen wrote about opinions of the life, small places with large issues, the time moments tyrrany, and about operating with slow and quick responses in the information time we are living and working within, and this is about being on alert, and being burnout and intelligent and exposed for competitions and new techology when we are here. And he also wrote a book about small groups as small communities where we find beliefs of different and same kinds, and where we are finding ethnicity and nationalism, what is anthropolgy? And a book about globalization and its key concepts when we are here. So, Thomas Hylland Eriksen was a motivation force, a pleasure and a rich and good professor with many associations being where he was being. So, we are remembering him many times today and perhaps some more days in the future, since he is not in reality more, and he has gone out of the living life.
