The Suttung movement

This is Ingeborg's description of the post-war society.

Ingeborg believed that the best protection agains fascism and nazism is culture and consciousness. She found her form of work: gathering interested people to sing, read and perform theatre. Her work was called suttung. The word is from old Norse mythology, where it is the title of a drink that turns men into poets or wise men.

For Ingeborg, this was a way of continuing her anti-fascist work.

Suttung welcomed people regardless of age!

Ingeborg took children seriously, and allowed them to express themselves seriously. Victor Hugos' "Les Miserables" was not considered too heavy literature for school children. The Bible was read, unabridged.

And the children were allowed to learn and recite poetry.
