He is known especially for his debut novel Madame Bovary (1857), his Correspondence, and his scrupulous devotion to his style and aesthetics. The celebrated short story writer Guy de Maupassant was a protégé of Flaubert.

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

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 Det var med Caspar Erics egne ord en bog om at være ung i 2014, om popsamfundet og angsten for at blive outdated.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.
