The purpose is to produce a book describing some characters from Lund University that in different ways distinguished themselves during the establishment of the university and whose life can inspire understanding and fascination for the background that later enabled us in modern times to study at Lund University and reach far. It is about odd characters that have worked at Lund University during its 350-year-old history. The book will be used as a yearbook by Lund University Historical Society 2019.
