who /swedishstudent/ here? uppsala reporting in. despite having

I feel you. Studying at Chalmers, haven't met a single person who doesn't think reading is a waste of time. I feel like a massive idiot every time I do a bit of late night reading in the studying halls.

Gjorde du inte denna tråden för en kvart sen?

why are swedish guys so qt

>Studying at Chalmers
This is where you went wrong, Anon.

Who /humanisten/ here?

>>7562313

Studied at humanisten last spring. Good times were had. However, no one was interested in the classics in my philosophy class, which was quite dull.

>>7562549
>philosophy class
This was also a mistake. Unless you study at Södertörns, you should stay clear of all philosophy classes.

If you study at Humanisten, you're best off taking History of Ideas. It will give you everything one might expect from a good philosophy course.

Whoa, your wives let you have internet in your cucksheds? How kind and generous of them. I always heard that Swedes were such tolerant people. Say hi to Jamal and Ahmed for me!

why m8

>>7562793
It's the only place in Sweden where one can study continental philosophy. It goes by itself that your co-students there would be more interested in literature(fiction and poetry, at least).

>>7562805
oh yeah I guess that's likely
I thought it was a comment on the standards of the philosophy departments themselves and was getting ready to throw down for my analytixx crew

is sweden actually as bad as the memes say?

How do you do fellow traveller? Though I'm currently studying abroad in Japan.

>>7562968
It's a meme, generally shilled by Americans on a weeb imageboard, make a guess.

Lund reporting in. I don't know how to make friends, let alone cultured ones.

Anyway what are some good Swedish novels?

American lit student (Swedish parents, but don't speak much) here. What is the academic culture like in swedish universities? I study forn nordiska at one of the few american unis with a good program for it and things are pretty good here, just curious what it's like over there

>>7562069
Swede here, none of my friends have ever willingly read a book.

you have any cool literary aunts/uncles/older cousins swedebro?

Same as any uni, middle-class liberals pretending to be revolutionaries, upper class neoliberals wasting their parents money, working class neoliberals wasting their own money and conservatives of any class pretending it's 1920s in exclusive clubs down their parent's basement.

The latter is probably more of than usual here in Uppsala, some of them have even started imitating the speech pattern of 30s radio.

>>7563123
what does that 30s speech pattern sound like? my grandparents always pronounced stuff way more than I / my parents do (ja/g/, di/g/, etc), but I bet my swedish is fucked up not living there and only talking to family.

no, apart from the racists (they're everywhere, anyway), it's a good country. i wouldn't change it for anywhere else anyway. it's the last bastion of reasonable individuals.

this guy's got it right. i fit pretty well into the first group. middle class home, leftist, feminist etc. dad's a closet racist though. at least i'm trying

Litteraturvetenskap på SU rapporterar in

>>7563267
spännande! vilket år går du och vad läser ni? hur är klasskamraterna, osv

>>7563274
Några kurskamrater är verkligen hur bra som helst, supertrevligt att få ha små bokcirklar om klassiker. Det här är litteraturlistan för grundkursen:

http://www.su.se/polopoly_fs/1.202047.1409831769!/menu/standard/file/Litteraturlista%20kurs%201-4%20Nyaste.pdf

På de senare kurserna finns det olika inriktningar men det är lite för få personer som läser för att jag ska vilja outa vad exakt jag läser :^)

>>7563293
bra lista ju. är lite avis här borta. vad tycker du om professorerna? min upplevelse är att de är väldigt avgörande för kvaliteten på en litteraturvetenskaplig utbildning (eller kulturrelaterade studier överhuvudtaget) – mer så än på något som inte är så tätt knutet till smak

>>7563323
Några föreläsare är väl rätt sega, men det är en rätt seminariebaserad utbildning så det blir väl lite vad man gör det till. Alla handledare jag haft hittills har varit utmärkta.

>>7563155

Sitt och läs inne på bulten på Chalmers, alla kommer att älska dig. Du kommer att få kompisar direkt.

Not Swedish (thank Allah), but I think that the situation you describe is pretty similar all around the world. I've studied at one top 10 and one top 20 university in the UK, and I've met plenty of people who just don't read any books at all. I was more well-read than all of the literature students I met, and I'm not even very well-read. /lit/ is the place I come to feel stupid for not reading enough, and that's a good thing.

>>7563681
Till och med om jag bara läser Hegels tegel till en kopp Kafka?

I would love to live in Sweden someday. How hard is it to emigrate there?

All of these troll posts and nobody gave more than a passive response to any of them.

Swedes are truly a great people. I have always respected you guys.

Speciellt då. För övrigt har det lilla biblioteket inuti M-huset en väldigt fin boksamling. Dosto, Chekhov, Solzhenitzyn m fl. Kan inte tänka mig ett mindre passande ställe, ser inte ut att ha blivit använda för något annat än underlägg på tjugo år.

Absolutely based. I wish we had a movement similar to that over here.

Accents are getting increasingly Americanised.
