Maybe 'borealism' could be a name for the Southern preconceived
ideas about those who live at Northern latitudes?Thus writes
prominent Norwegian writer Kjartan Flogstad. Although not everyone
may be readily familiar with 'borealism' as an expression, most
readers are likely to have engaged with the concept at one time or
another. For many years, the boreal has sparked the imagination of
British audiences, and its popularity continues to flourish as
contemporary Nordic cultural waves make landfall in the UK.This
volume presents a range of new perspectives on the Nordic region,
as well as its myriad of influences on its surroundings. The
fifteen chapters in this publication showcase some of the best
research being conducted by emerging researchers in Britain on
Nordic topics. Divided into thematic sections, these chapters cover
everything from historical narratives to contemporary culture, with
numerous other elements in between. As such, this volume offers
refreshing and alternative perspectives on a diverse number of
subjects, whilst also marking many research topics' first
appearance in publication. This book offers something for everyone,
be they students writing essays or fully-fledged academics
preparing monographs, and provides a clear, concise point of entry
for those curious about any number of Nordic issues.
