DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Essays on Scandinavian Literature Some twenty years ago the ambition seized me to write a History of Scandinavian Literature. I scarcely realized then what an enormous amount of reading would be required to equip me for this task. My studies naturally led me much beyond the s00pe of my original intention. There was a fascination in the work which lured me perpetually on, and made me explore with a constantly increas ing zest the great literary personalities of Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Thus my chapter on Hen rik Ibsen grew into a book of three hundred and seventeen pages, which was published a year ago, and must be regarded as supplementary to the present volume. The chapter on Bjornstjerne Bjornson was in danger of expanding to similar proportions, and only the most heroic condensation saved it from challenging criticism as an inde pendent work. As regards Norway and Denmark, I have endeavored to select all the weightiest and most representative names. The Swedish authors Johan Ludvig Runeberg, Mrs. Edgren, and Au gust Strindberg, and the Dane Oehlenschlaeger.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHjalmar Hjorth Boyesen (23 September 1848 - 4 October 1895) was a Norwegian-American author and college professor. He is best remembered for his novel Gunnar: A Tale of Norse Life, which is generally considered to have been the first novel by a Norwegian immigrant in America. Boyesen immigrated to the United States during 1869 and initially became assistant editor of Fremad, a Norwegian language weekly published in Chicago. The multi-lingual Boyesen subsequently taught Greek and Latin classes at Urbana University. Boyesen was a professor of North European Languages at Cornell University from 1874 to 1880. His scholarly works included Goethe and Schiller, Essays on German Literature, A Commentary on the Works of Henrik Ibsen and Essays on Scandinavian Literature.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHow do the "debatable lands" of Scandinavia and Scotland write their relations with their national centers, and with each other? How have post-colonialism and post nationalism made themselves felt in the literature of the cultural patchwork of Northern Europe? These sixteen essays trace ways to tell the stories of connections, boundaries, and localities that might go undetected by historians and artists. The literatures of the islands, borderlands, and landscapes of the North and Baltic Seas are set in dialogue with contemporary literary and socio-political approaches to the study of local, national and global cultural constellations, disrupting conventional cartographies that paint the margins as passive victims of geography or economics.
