This article provides information about the book "The Ring of the Lowenskolds," by Selma Lagerlof. Selma Lagerlof's art is an art rooted in a tradition. Back of the simple audacity in character portrayal lies the author's assurance that these types are familiar to her readers, that a certain homogeneity of feeling concerning the old aristocratic families and their legendary backgrounds persists. For the American novelist every background presented is sectional, and any culture is a veneer upon the changing surface of cultures in this country.
