Nina E. Bangs outstanding work

Nina Ellinger Bang was a Danish historian (and politician) who was one of the first women to get an academic degree in Denmark. She had specialized on the Sund Toll Registers (1420s-1857) and she understood what unique historical document the STR was for the economic history of Northern Europe. Today we will also include political, social and cultural history as well. Nina E. Bang had an deep and profound knowledge of the source and her knowledge is "coded" into the publications.
