Personal background
[edit]Agger's mother is author Ragnhild Agger (born on 25 January 1918), who has written novels, short stories and poetry on women's life in a social and realistic perspective.[7]
In 1974, Agger was hired at Aalborg University to teach Danish and Media Studies.[8] Since then, Agger has been a member of the university board (2003–2007), a dean (1983–1984) and a pro-dean (1982–1983).[8]
Agger has been a guest lecturer at Old Dominion University in the United States, the University of Greenland, the University of Iceland, Vilnius University and many Danish and Scandinavian universities.[8] She is affiliated with the University of Copenhagen and Aarhus University as an external co-examiner.[9]
Academic work
[edit]Agger has contributed to Danish media interpretations of themes within both fiction and journalism. She has explained how streaming services have advanced due to their ability to act both nationally and globally,[10] whereas the DVD medium remains as a guarantor of the "safe choice".[11]
Agger has been involved in the debate about the Danish TV series Badehotellet (The Seaside Hotel) and the reason for its success.[12] While the debate on Badehotellet was running, Agger gave interviews to other media outlets, explaining the qualities of the TV series.[13]
From 2010 to 2016, Agger chaired a crime research project at Aalborg University, co-editing with Kim Toft Hansen a six-volume book series. In this series, Agger wrote the book Mord til tiden (Timely Murder) (2013), which investigates historical crime fiction and crime documentary.[14] Professor Kirsten Drotner wrote about this work: "The book demonstrates an impressive overview of a very large volume of material and does so with a sense of national and epochal contexts."[15]
In 2010, with Anne Marit Waade, Agger published Den skandinaviske krimi – bestseller og blockbuster (Scandinavian Crime – bestseller and blockbuster).[16]
Since 2014, Agger has participated in the research project "What Makes Danish TV Drama Series Travel?", investigating the international success of Danish TV dramas.[17] In connection with this project, she has published the following:
- "The development of transnationality in Danish Noir – from Unit One to The Team" (2016), in Northern Lights, volume 14: Television drama in the age of media convergence
- "Nordic Noir – Location, Identity and Emotion" (2016), in Alberto N. Garcia (ed.): Emotions in Contemporary TV Series. Palgrave Macmillan.
Organizations
[edit]Agger was a board member (2003–2006) and deputy chair (2005–2006) of the Association of Media Researchers in Denmark, a member of the Danish Council for Independent Research Humanities (now FKK) 1997–2003, of the Research Committee of the Danish Ministry of Culture (1999–2003), and a member of the Prime Minister's Media Committee (1994–1996). Agger is a member of the advisory board of the Journal of Scandinavian Cinema[18] and of the Scientific Committee of the Journal Series. Agger is also a member of Det Danske Kriminalakademi (the Danish Crime Academy), whose purpose is to promote good Danish crime literature.[19]
