August Strindberg (English and Swedish Edition)

Olof Lagercrantz
4.9/5 (9435 ratings)
Description:August Strindberg (1849-1912) is the Golden Eagle of Swedish literature; at least this is his own depiction in one of his poems, and he has been viewed in this fashion, as larger and lonelier and bolder than all other authors. Olof Lagercrantz's biography of the author to The Red Room, The People of Hemsö and A Dream Play is the first one written on eye level, by one writer about another. Here we will encounter the famous Strindberg - misogynist, the radical truth-teller - but also a more intimate and low-key author. Lagercrantz dares to challenge established truths about Strindberg's madness and simple origin, and allows the portrait of a more playful, modern and complicated human being emerge. The book caused caused a stir when it was published in 1979 and gave rise to a debate that is still ongoing; mostly revolving around the topic of who has the right to define the official truth about another person's life and biography.[Swedish original]August Strindberg (1849-1912) är den svenska litteraturens kungsörn: så skildrar han sig själv i en av sina dikter och så har han blivit sedd, som större och ensammare och djärvare än alla andra författare. Olof Lagercrantz biografi över författaren till Röda rummet, Hemsöborna och Ett drömspel är den första som är skriven i ögonhöjd, av en diktare om en annan. Här möter vi den kände Strindberg - kvinnohataren, penismätaren, bildstormaren, den radikale sanningssägaren - men också en intimare, lågmäldare. Lagercrantz vågade utmana etablerade sanningar om Strindbergs galenskap och enkla ursprung, och lät porträttet av en lekfullare, modernare och mer komplicerad gestalt växa fram. Boken väckte enormt uppseende vid sin publicering 1979 och gav upphov till en debatt som i viss mening inte har bedarrat än: nämligen om vem som har rätt att definiera den offentliga sanningen om en annan människas liv och biografi.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
