who succeeded in establishing orderly conditions inspired confidence and comphance in the farm- ers. If he failed, he was in danger of losing pres- tige and followers, who might think themselves better off with another chieftain. VIEWPOINT (SJÓNARHÓLL) Margrét S. Björnsdóttir The political party system in upheaval? (Er tíðinda að vænta af íslensku flokkakerfi?) What are the real chances that the three political parties on the left of Icelandic politics could unite to form one powerful, social-democratic party? The author discusses this recurrent theme in Icelandic pohtics, its historical background and recent developments. She argues that the condi- tions for such a merger have never been as ripe as now and predicts a major shake-up along these lines preceding the next general elections in 1999, which will mark a turning-point in the history of the political party system in Iceland. Már Jónsson Arni Magnússon’s fínal years (Síðustu misseri Arna Magnússonar) Árni Magnússon, collector of manuscripts and professor of history at the University of Copenhagen (1663-1730), spent the last years of his life preparing his vast collection for later use, without ceasing, however, to expand it. He had manuscripts bound and ordered according to con- temporary ideas of genre and importance. Unfortunately, he did not make a catalogue of his belongings, which included some two thousand manuscripts and over ten thousand documents and transcripts of documents. A good deal perish- ed in the Great Fire in Copenhagen in October 1728, and Árni lived only for fourteen months after that. An eye-witness account of his death does not clearly reveal its cause. The fírst Icelandic History Congress (íslenska söguþingið) In the spring 1997 the first Icelandic History Congress was held in Reykjavík, featuring almost 80 lectures on a wide variety of topics. A great number of historians and history teachers partici- pated in the congress. A few of the participants were asked to express their opinions to this jour- nal, and their contribution is introduced by a fore- word from the organizers.
