Scandinavian Talk Set
The role of Scandinavia in the history of Europen culture will be discussed at 3:15 today by visiting Professor Theodore Jorgenson in the art and lecture room of th# University library.
Speaking at the fourth meeting of a lecture series sponsored by the English department, Professor Jorgenson will trace the long hard struggle the Scandinavian people have had with nature, and how nature has inspired their culture.
“The people have been able fd find a rich way of life with a con* siderable degree of security and, without losing the dream that na* ture inspired, they have estab* lished a form of advanced culture and have kept the door of th$ future open,” commented Jorgenson yesterday.
The speaker will develop how the old culture was established in the days of the Vikings and hoW it found expression in literature. It was a culture built on an agrarian basis and on a back* ground of ancient lore, he said*
Basic features of the present day Scandinavian culture include such things as the people’s intense love of nature, their strong sense of national loyalty, their strong desire for a righteous society, and their searching for a meaning of life, acoording to Jorgenson.
The speaker, a visiting professor from St. Olaf college in Minne* sota, spent 19 years in Europe. His latest visit was in 1947 when he studied the postwar conditions of ten countries.
