Abstract
(Talk given at the Oskar Klein centenary symposium 19-21 September 1994 in Stockholm, Sweden, to appear in the proceedings.) The first half of this talk is a non-technical discussion of some general aspects of string theory, in particular the problem of compactification. We also give an introduction to mirror symmetry. The second half is a brief account of two recent papers on this subject; one by the author on mirror symmetry for Kazama-Suzuki models and one by P. Berglund and the author on a search for possible mirror pairs of Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds.
