When we think of Norway, we often only recall fjords or the image of a Viking. But behind these clichés lies a whole world - with literature, lifestyle, and culture comparable to the classics. An engaging lecture by Artem Korobkin will debunk myths and show our northern neighbor from a completely new perspective. How often do you think about Norway? Besides fjords, Vikings, and maybe fish - what else comes to mind? The lecture "Norway: Not Just Fjords" invites you to go beyond stereotypes and delve into this northern country - with its history, culture, literature, and even everyday life. This is not a Wikipedia tour, but a lively narrative full of amazing facts and unexpected parallels. The lecturer is Artem Korobkin, a historian and the creator of the HeringClub project. His style is not a dry presentation of facts, but an intellectual journey in which the listener becomes a participant. He will explain why Russia and Norway have developed almost ideal relations, what we don’t know about Norwegian cuisine, and why their literature is compared to Russian classics.
