The Poetic of Water in Scandinavian Literature ~ From the Mind of a Literature Student

Hello to you,
water in literature is used in so many ways to convey meaning. Not only in a metaphorical sense but also in its elemental form as a resource. I wrote one of my bachelor theses on water in scandianvian literature so let me share some perspectives on this topic.
All the best to you!

Some of the mentioned books:
Olli Jalonen - "Die Kunst unter Wasser zu atmen" (Original Finnish: "Merenpeitto")
Roald Amundsen - "The Roald Amundsen Diaries: The South Pole Expedition 1910-1912"
Ulla-Lena Lundberg - "Ice"
Tore Kvæven - "Eisiges Land" (Original Norwegian: "Når landet mørknar")

00:00-01:25 Introduction
01:25-07:42 Theoretical approach (antropocene, ecocriticism)
