Søren Kierkegaard

Søren Aabye Kierkegaard was a prolific 19th century Danish philosopher and theologian. Kierkegaard strongly criticised both the Hegelianism of his time and what he saw as the empty formalities of the Church of Denmark. Much of his work deals with religious themes such as faith in God, the institution of the Christian Church, Christian ethics and theology, and the emotions and feelings of individuals when faced with life choices. His early work was written under various pseudonyms who present their own distinctive viewpoints in a complex dialogue.

Kierkegaard left the task of discovering the meaning of his works to the reader, because "the task must be made difficult, for only the difficult inspires the noble-hearted". Scholars have interpret

Jens Peter Jacobsen

Jacobsen was born in Thisted in Jutland, the eldest of the five children of a prosperous merchant. He went to school in Copenhagen and was a student at the University of Copenhagen in 1868. As a boy, he showed a remarkable talent for science, in particular botany. In 1870, although he was already secretly writing poetry, Jacobsen adopted botany as a profession. He was sent by a scientific body in Copenhagen to report on the flora of the islands of Anholt and Læsø.

Around this time, the discoveries of Charles Darwin began to fascinate him. Realizing that the work of Darwin was not well known in Denmark, he translated The Origin of Species and The Descent of Man into Danish.

When still young, Jacobsen was struck by tuberculosis which eventual

Because of this Scherfig was imprisoned by the Nazi German military occupation forces in Denmark duri

Henrik Ibsen

Henrik Johan Ibsen was a major Norwegian playwright largely responsible for the rise of modern realistic drama. He is often referred to as the "father of modern drama." Ibsen is held to be the greatest of Norwegian authors and one of the most important playwrights of all time, celebrated as a national symbol by Norwegians.

His plays were considered scandalous to many of his era, when Victorian values of family life and propriety largely held sway in Europe and any challenge to them was considered immoral and outrageous. Ibsen's work examined the realities that lay behind many facades, possessing a revelatory nature that was disquieting to many contemporaries.

Ibsen largely founded the modern stage by introducing a critical eye and free inquir

Theis Ørntoft

Theis Ørntoft (født 1984) debuterede i 2009 med den usædvanligt stilsikre digtsamling Yeahsuiten. Debuten indbragte ham Danmarks største debutantpris Munch-Christensens Kulturlegat. Han har studeret Litteraturvidenskab ved Københavns Universitet og gik i perioden fra 2007 til 2009 på Forfatterskolen. Kort efter han dimitterede fra Forfatterskolen udkom Yeahsuiten på Gyldendal. Kun en enkelt anmelder brokkede sig over den unge digters lidt for smarte og alt for ungdommelige sprogbrug. Men som anmelder på Information Kamilla Löfström skrev i sin gennemgang af årets debutanter: ”Hvad er man da også for en sølle debutant, hvis ikke man kan få ophidset bare én kritiker med sin kække sprogbrug?”.
