Museum of Danish America

Museum of Danish America

Museum of Danish America (tidligere The Danish Immigrant Museum)[1] er et museum i Elk Horn, Iowa i USA.

I 1979 foreslog to professorer fra Dana College at etablere et museum dedikeret bevarelsen af arven efter danske immigranter i USA. The Danish American Heritage Society (DAHS) nedsatte en undersøgende komité, og i 1983 valgte komitéen at museet skulle opføres i landsbyerne Elk Horn og Kimballton i Iowa. Bestyrelsen blev officielt dannet i maj, og i juli donerede Elk Horn Lutheran Church 20 acre til opførselen af museet.

Museet var derefter åben for donationer til samlingen, og den virkede i en bygning på Elk Horns hovedgade i mange år. Ceremonien for nedlæggelse af grundstenen til museets nuværende bygning fandt sted i 1988, men museets bygning åbnede først i juni 1994 for publikum.[2]

Museet ændrede sit navn fra The Danish Immigrant Museum til The Museum of Danish America i forbindelse med generalforsamlingen den 11. oktober 2013.[3]

I dag består museets permanente udstilling af mere end 35.000 genstande.[4]

System of imprimitivity

The concept of a system of imprimitivity is used in mathematics, particularly in algebra and analysis, both within the context of the theory of group representations. It was used by George Mackey as the basis for his theory of induced unitary representations of locally compact groups. The simplest case, and the context in which the idea was first noticed, is that of finite groups (see primitive permutation group). Consider a group G and subgroups H and K, with K contained in H. Then the left ...
