Caspar Eric

Caspar Eric er født i 1987 og har læst Litteraturvidenskab på Københavns Universitet.

I 2014 debuterede Caspar Eric som forfatter med poesi-udgivelsen ”7/11”. Det var med Caspar Erics egne ord en bog om at være ung i 2014, om popsamfundet og angsten for at blive outdated. Men det var også en bog om København, om kærlighed, om det, der er og sker lige nu. Og jeget i bogen ligner i udpræget grad Caspar Eric selv. Caspar Eric modtog desuden debutantprisen Munch Kristensens Kulturlegat 2015 på 50.000 kr. for ”7/11”.

”7/11” er Caspar Erics forfatterdebut i Danmark, men han har tidligere udgivet en mindre dobbeltdigtsamling på det norske forlag AFV Press. På samme forlag er udkommet yderligere to digtsamlinger af Caspar Eric i august 2014.

Anne Brontë

Anne Brontë was an English novelist and poet, the youngest member of the Brontë literary family. Anne's two novels, written in a sharp and ironic style, are completely different from the romanticism followed by her sisters, Emily Brontë and Charlotte Brontë. She wrote in a realistic, rather than a romantic style. Mainly because the re-publication of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall was prevented by Charlotte Brontë after Anne's death, she is less known than her sisters. However, her novels, like those of her sisters, have become classics of English literature.

The daughter of a poor Irish clergyman in the Church of England, Anne Brontë lived most of her life with her family at the parish of Haworth on the Yorkshire moors. In Elizabeth Gaskell's b

Euripides

Euripides (Greek: Ευριπίδης) (ca. 480 BC–406 BC) was a tragedian of classical Athens. Along with Aeschylus and Sophocles, he is one of the three ancient Greek tragedians for whom any plays have survived in full. Some ancient scholars attributed ninety-five plays to him, but the Suda says it was ninety-two at most. Of these, eighteen or nineteen have survived more or less complete (Rhesus is suspect). There are many fragments (some substantial) of most of his other plays. More of his plays have survived intact than those of Aeschylus and Sophocles together, partly because his popularity grew as theirs declined—he became, in the Hellenistic Age, a cornerstone of ancient literary education, along with Homer, Demosthenes, and Menander.
