Abstract

Realism in Scandinavia
Moritzen, Julius | May 12, 1926 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on literature of Scandinavia. J. Anker Larsen, whose book "The Philosopher's Stone" may be familiar to American readers through translation, has to his recent credit "Martha and Maria"; here his religious tendency is again conspicuous. Helge Rode, a poet of distinction, in "The Place With the Green Trees" treats a subject that brings the Salvation Army, open-air meetings, and religious idealism into the foreground. In somewhat similar strain is Luthrig Holstein's "The Green Field." As elsewhere in Europe, the war left as a heritage to Danish literature a profound conviction that beyond the things of every day are other phases of existence worthy of being utilized.
