Abstract
The relationship between science and literature is a well discussed field of interest since C. P. Snow’s famous lecture on the two cultures in 1959. In recent years, the science-and-literature-studies have increased largely in number, and new ideas how these areas could be linked theoretically have been developed. In the seminar, some of these concepts will be discussed.
