Herman Lindqvist - lecture on Sweden's 18th century history

An evening with a talk by culture and history journalist Herman Lindqvist.

The Freedom Period (1720-1772) was a flourishing time for Swedish natural science, and never was the freedom of printing so great. But how free was it? After an unsuccessful war against Russia, Petersburg gained control of Sweden. It was exceedingly close that our country had been divided like Poland. Herman Lindqvist tells us about this dramatic period in Swedish history, where the lords of Salsta Castle were particularly active in the rapid changes of the times.

It wasn't for nothing that the entire episode about the 18th century was recorded at Salsta Castle in SVT's seriesHistorien om Sverige.

Warmly welcome!
