Under lupen: norske eventyr

The Brief

In the first edition of Under the Microscope this year, the editorial team takes a closer look at NORWEGIAN FOLK TALES. As children, our understanding of reality is often shaped by being fed fairy tales and stories, because they teach us which values and norms society holds dear. Most of us move through life without giving much thought to the stories we were told as children - but now it’s about time to pause and put Norwegian folk tales under the microscope. Why are we so fond of Askeladden? What’s the deal with the Fox’s Widow? Were Asbjørnsen & Moe really just friends? And is there even such a thing as Norwegian folk tales, or is everything simply borrowed from abroad?
