Bernhard Karlgren TV Special!
Culture and languages
By chance we found something unexpected in the national TV archives – a programme from Swedish television 25 June 1962 where Bernhard Karlgren tells about his life as a researcher. The programme was titled ”Tecken i tiotusental” (Tens of thousands of characters, only in Swedish) and among other things Karlgren tells how he worked to reconstruct Old (Archaic) Chinese pronunciation. Don’t miss this opportunity to see and hear Karlgren! There will also be a Q&A session about Karlgren, his work in Gothenburg 1918-1939 and about our current sinological research.
