Rewriting the Margins - Selma Lagerlöfs Literature of Värmland

The Regional Fictions Podcast is a series of podcasts stemming from the Redefining the Region project funded by the Dutch Research Council NWO at Radboud University (Project ID: VI.C.181.026; P.I. Prof. Marguérite Corporaal). In these podcasts, researchers bring listeners on a journey to discover lesser-known nineteenth-century regional books and media documents in conversation with fellow experts. Hosted by researchers who are part of the VICI project, each episode uncovers nineteenth-century regional literature and media and features an interview with fellow researchers as well as a reading of short extracts from the texts that are being discussed. The podcasts are aimed at researchers and students in the humanities who are interested in nineteenth-century regional identities and European regional or local-colour literature in transnational perspectives. Additional information on the Redefining the Region project can be found at https://www.ru.nl/en/research/research-projects/redefining-the-region In this episode, Marguérite Corporaal interviews Prof. Petra Broomans (University of Groningen) on Swedish author Selma Lagerlöf.
