The Literary Scandinavism

By the end of the 18th century the mutual cultural interest and exchange were increased, and in the age of Romanticism the common Nordic traits in language and literature were rediscovered. The cultivation of the Nordic past and mythology lead to a new literary departure and the forming of joint periodicals and societies.
The desire for travelling was great and this was contributory in the establishing of contacts and the desire for getting to know one another better.
