Vilhelm Grønbech

Vilhelm Grønbech, 1873-1948, dansk religionshistoriker. Han var cand. mag. og organist, skrev i 1902 disputats om tyrkisk lydhistorie, blev docent i engelsk 1908-11 og var 1915-43 professor i religionshistorie ved Københavns Universitet.

Grønbech var kendt for sin faglige bredde og sine inspirerende og velbesøgte forelæsninger.

Denne forståelse af det fremmede blev grundlaget for hans kulturkritik.

Grønbech var modstander af evolutionisternes ofte nedladende holdning t

During the time he was in prison, he put out two more impressive keyboard-based albums and several books’ worth of writings before falling silent around the turn of the mill
