A United Nations observance marking the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the dignity owed to every person.
A day for the thing remembered at the door, bought before closing, delivered before supper, or rescued just in time.
On December 10, the Nobel Prizes are awarded in Stockholm at a ceremony attended by the royal family, followed by a banquet at City Hall. The entire event is broadcast live, and every Swede has an opinion about the literature prize. The banquet menu is kept secret until the evening, and each guest receives a Nobel medal made of 18-karat gold.
