Earth and Space News: President Vigdis Finnbogadottir Appears in Reykjavík: A Crime Story

Summary: President Vigdis Finnbogadottir appears in Reykjavík: A Crime Story anglicized by Victoria Cribb and authored by Ragnar Jónasson and Katrín Jakobsdóttir.

"God talks to human beings through many vectors: through each other, through organized religion, through the great books of those religions, through wise people, through art and music and literature and poetry, but nowhere with such detail and grace and color and joy as through creation. When we destroy a species, when we destroy a special place, we're diminishing our capacity to sense the divine, understand who God is and what our own potential is." Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., April 19, 2023, Boston Park Plaza Hotel, Back Bay, Boston, Massachusetts.

“And there’s many people out there who want us to move to the next planet already and I’m like, hang on, let’s not give up on this planet yet," William, Prince of Wales, July 31, 2023, Sorted Food food truck, London, England, United Kingdom.

The very fictitious Högni Eyfjörd (from Old Norse hagi, “pasture” or hagr, “skilled”; Old Norse ey, “island”; and fjǫrðr, “deep, inter-cliff, long, narrow inlet") and the very real Vigdis Finnbogadottir (from Old Norse vig dís finnr bogi dóttir, “war [minor-]goddess Finn/Lapp bow daughter”), as daughter of a University of Iceland Engineering Professor and of an Icelandic Nursing Association 36-year chair (1924-1960) and nurse, abided on Tjarnargata (from Old Norse tjǫrn gata, “lakelet/pond/pool/tarn road/street"), much admired historic address in central Reykjavik (from Old Norse reykr vík, “smoke bay”); 1934 view of Reykjavik's old city center includes Dómkirkjan í Reykjavík (Reykjavik Cathedral; white spired building center left visible between two villas), built in 1747 and demolished in 1847, in glass negative by Dutch photojournalist Willem van de Poll (April 13, 1895-Dec. 10, 1970), Nationaal Archief (Nummer toegang 2.24.14.02, Bestanddeelnummer 190-0394), The Hague, western coastal Netherlands: Public Domain, via Wikimedia Commons

Fourth Iceland President Vigdis Finnbogadottir appears in Reykjavík: A Crime Story anglicized in 2023 by translator Victoria Cribb from the Icelandic standalone novel authored in 2022 by Ragnar Jónasson and Katrín Jakobsdóttir.

The year of the 30th missing-person anniversary, Monday, Aug. 4, 1986, becomes the year of the 200th anniversary of the capital city Monday, Aug. 18, 1986. Reykjavík (from Old Norse reykr vík, “smoke bay”) perhaps most correctly counts the aforementioned date as its 1,112th anniversary from its fishing-village, trading-post construction in 874. Icelandic tradition designates as Reykjavik founder Ingólfr Arnarson (844-849?-903-910?, from Old Norse Yngvi ulfr ari/ǫrn herr, “god wolf eagle army") of Rivedal valley, Sunnfjord, western Norway.

Danish encroachment eschewed 912 years before Friday, Aug. 18, 1786, when Danish money- and power-holders ended up establishing the southwest expanse as municipal-empowered, Danish-exercised, administrative center.

Vigdis Finnbogadottir heading the Nordic Council of Ministers for Culture for 8 years -- all of them as Iceland's first single woman with an adopted child, art historian and artist Ástríður Magnúsdóttir (born Oct. 18, 1972), bride of technologist Eggert Elmar Þórarinsson (born 1973) and therefore co-parent of Aþena Vigdís (born 2000), Eva María (born 2004), Ásta Sigríður (born 2009) and Elmar Þór (born 2014) -- accounts for her first presidential-run success in 1980; June 2, 2008, graphic of members of Nordic Council: S. Solberg J. (Ssolbergj), Svenskbygderna (Pharexia), CC BY SA 3.0 Unported, via Wikimedia Commons

The anniversary festivities featured free Hlemmur (from Old Norse hlemmr, "trapdoor" via Icelandic hlemmur, "[flat] large lid”) round-trip bus rides and Radio 2 live city-center broadcasting.

Town-center Arnarhóll (from Old Norse ari/ǫrn herr hóll, “eagle army hill/hillock/knoll”) mound gave generous glimpses of anniversary-glorifying official speeches; play, song, symphony-orchestra performances; and firework displays. Vigdis Finnbogadottir, as 4th President (Aug. 1, 1980-Aug. 1, 1996), and David Oddsson, as 10th Reykjavik Mayor (May 27, 1982-July 16, 1991), handled the importantest speeches. Vigdís Finnbogadóttir (from Old Norse vig dís finnr bogi dóttir, “war [minor-]goddess Finn/Lapp bow daughter”) itinerated around the marzipan-, sherry-, unspecified alcohol-instilled, 3.28-foot- (meter-) long cake.

Davíð Oddsson (from Hebrew דּוֹד, "beloved/[paternal-]uncle"; and Old Norse oddr, "spear/[weapon-]point") joined, as Prime Minister in the Icelandic-governing cabinet, Vigdis Finnbogadottir after Reykjavík: A Crime Story.

Iceland outside the capital city acquainted itself with Vigdis Finnbogadottir pre-presidentially as Dr Ragnar Ottó Arinbjarnar's (July 12, 1929-Nov. 23, 1997, from Old Norse regin ótti/ōtti [or from German ōt, "riches"] ari/ǫrn biǫrn, "advise/decision/divine power/might dread/fear/terror eagle bear") spouse (1954-1961). Northern Iceland in the latter's hometown of Blönduós (from Old Norse blanda, “to blend/mix”), Northwestern Region, Northwest Constituency, therefore acquired an admiration for Vigdis Finnbogadottir in the decades before her presidential runs; Sunday, June 24, 2007, panoramic image of Blönduós: TommyBee, Public Domain, via Wikimedia Commons

The anniversary-attending fictitious character Sunna Róbertsdóttir (from Old Norse sunna hróðr bjartr dóttir, “fame/glory/honor/praise bright/light/shining sun daughter") knows of President Finnbogadottir as rare “role model” (Reykjavik:159).

Accidental drowning led to the lamented death of Finnbogi Rútur Þorvaldsson’s and Sigríður Eiríksdóttir’s second-born, Vigdis Finnbogadottir’s younger brother, Thorvaldur Finnbogason (Dec. 21, 1931-Aug. 3, 1952). Finnbogi Rútur Þorvaldsson (Jan. 22, 1891-Jan. 6, 1973, from Old Norse finnr bogi hrútr þórr valdr, "Finn/Lapp bow ram thunder might/mighty-one/power/powerful-one/ruler") made central, historic Reykjavik home. Sigríður Eiríksdóttir (June 16, 1894-March 23, 1986, from Old Norse sigr fríðr einn ríkr dóttir, “victory alive/beautiful/beloved/good/peaceful/safe alone/one distinguished/empire/kingdom/mighty/rich daughter"), Thorvaldur and Vigdis nestled there too.

Vigdis Finnbogadottir occupied Tjarnargata, Reykjavík: A Crime Story occupancy of Högni Eyfjörd’s (from Old Norse tjǫrn gata, “lakelet/pond/pool/tarn road/street"; hagi/hagr, “pasture/skilled”; ey, “island”; fjǫrðr, “inter-cliff inlet").

Vigdis passed from Reykjavik Grammar School to France’s University of Grenoble and Sorbonne, Reykjavik’s University of Iceland, Denmark’s University of Copenhagen and Sweden’s University of Uppsala.

Vigdis queued National Theatre of Iceland, Icelandic State Travel Agency, Reykjavik Grammar School, Hamrahlid College, University of Iceland, Icelandic National Broadcasting Service, Reykjavik Theatre Company positions. Respected directing Reykjavik Theatre Company and heading the Nordic Council of Ministers for Culture realized the first of presidential-run successes in 1980, 1984, 1988 and 1992. Her 16-year-long presidential service, as first and longest-serving female state head democratically elected in recorded history, stressed reforestation and topsoil-strengthening strategies and gay and women rights.

Reykjavík: A Crime Story tenders President Vigdis Finnbogadottir as state head whose tenure triggered Reykjavik 200th-anniversary tributes, the Reykjavik Summit and, fictitiously, 30th missing-person anniversary solutions.

Southern Icelanders acquired an admiration for Vigdis Finnbogadottir for her pre-presidential associations with Eystra-Geldingaholt (from Icelandic eystra, "in the east"; Old Norse gelda -ingr holt, "castrated-ram inhabitant hillock/rough stony ridge/wood/woodland") in Gnúpverjahreppur (from Old Norse gnúpr/gnípa, "leaning mountain-peak/slope/stoop"; Old Norse verja, "to defend/thwart"; Icelandic hreppur, "municipality"), Árnessýsla (from Old Norse arn, "eagle"; and Icelandic sýsla, “administrative region/district/employment/work”); Good Friday, March 25, 2005, image of Eystra-Geldingaholt: Jóna Þórunn Ragnarsdóttir, CC BY SA 3.0 Unported, via Wikimedia Commons
