In line with Iperborea’s mission to spread Northern Europe’s quality literature in Italy, we submit a 3-year project “Nordic Spring in Italy” that aims at publishing and promoting outstanding works by the most established authors of at least 8 European less translated languages. Our first objectives are indeed to support a cultural exchange between North and South of Europe and to draw attention to less known cultural areas: we strongly believe that literature can be an excellent instrument to know each other better and overcome bias that sometime can divide North and South. All selected novels will deal with relevant political, social and philosophical issues which can be traced back to Europe’s common history and cultural heritage, offering an enlightening insight into their own countries while enhancing European identity. For instance, Dag Solstad’s work, scheduled for 2015, is a literary masterful novel that questions the role of European cultural, moral and literary values in nowadays society. All works selected for the first year are of widely recognized literary value, written by distinguished authors from Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Estonia, all leading intellectuals deeply engaged with European culture. Like all works of our 3-year project, they will be translated at a level of excellence by very experienced and renowned translators. They will be distributed in Italy through bookchains, independent bookshops, online sellers and Iperborea’s own e-commerce and they will be digitalized in all ebook formats (also for blind and visually impaired) and make accessible on all publishing platforms. Our special care for new technologies ensures the novels’ widest accessibility. A dedicated campaign will be planned for the launch of each novel to guarantee maximum visibility on media and web. All authors will be invited for festivals and promotional tours, and some of them will take part to the Nordic cultural festival that we organize every year in Milan.
