In Northern Norwegian literary history, there are many examples of the tension between the periphery and the centre which seems to be a general feature of European culture as far back as Antiquity. In this course, the main emphasis will be on central Northern Norwegian works from the period after 1900, and we will try to read these texts into a regional Northern Norwegian as well as a national Norwegian context of literary history.
