The book examines a remarkable yet little-known episode of 1930s cultural history, when writers from across the Nordic countries took part in gatherings in Germany organised under the banner of cultural exchange.
At the event, Tuire Liimatainen will interview Frederik Forrai Ørskov, with Johan Östling and Ylva Perera offering further reflections on the book and its themes.
Frederik Forrai Ørskov completed his PhD at the Centre for Nordic Studies (CENS). CENS is proud to celebrate the achievements of its alumni and their continued contributions to Nordic cultural and historical research.
