Ingmar Bergman: 100 Years

An Academic Conference to be held at the Centre for Languages and Literature, Lund University, Sweden, 13-17 June, 2018, celebrating the centenary of Bergman’s birth in 1918.

This conference will contain keynote addresses and ensuing discussions only. Speeches will be delivered by world leading scholars within Bergman studies (some 20 over three days), so there will be no general call for papers. The speeches will be open to the general public, so everyone will be welcome to attend the conference! There will be no need for accreditation. There will also be some film screenings, theatrical presentations and excursions. Among confirmed speakers are:

Professor emeritus Thomas Elsaesser, Universiteit van Amsterdam
Professor Stephen Prince, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia
Dr. Laura Hubner, University of Winchester, UK
Professor Linda Haverty-Rugg, University of California-Berkeley
Dr. Jan Holmberg, Ingmar Bergman Foundation, Stockholm
