Skarhult Castle’s project manager, Baroness Alexandra von Schwerin, has launched six new short films about the hidden female power to counterbalance the male dominated focus of Swedish school history books.
The short films are a unique private initiative undertaken by Skarhult as an outcome of the collaborative workshop held with members of the AHRC Gender, Power and Materiality in Early Modern Europe research network. They are recommended as a supplement to history teaching in middle schools. Teachers are free to use the films and related study questions in teaching. The films can be viewed via this link – http://www.skarhult.se/skolfilmer.
