Welcome to lectures with free entry from 17.45 pm! The Nordenstedtska seminariet is a lecture series financed by the Nordenstedtska Stiftelsen.
The 1920s often become a transport stretch between the aftermath of the First World War and the prelude to the Second World War. The ambition of our lecture is to change this approach. True, the shadow of the Great War still rests over the decade, especially its first half, but the decade is also the threshold of the new and modern, with Americanization, dreams of peace, motoring, emancipation, popular culture and much else. It is a 20-odd that we can look back on a century later with advantage.
The evening's lecturers Klas-Göran Karlsson and Kim Salomon are professors emeritus at Lund University and research contemporary history.
