The classics with Klaus Rothstein: Selma Lagerlöf
ONLY ANNUAL PASS – Klaus Rothstein once again dives into original materials from Royal Danish Library. We zoom in on the author as a letter writer, and the author is Selma Lagerlöf herself.
We continue the Diamond Club's series of highly sought-after lectures, where critic Klaus Rothstein delves into the rich treasure trove of original manuscripts from leading authors held by Royal Danish Library. This spring, the focus is on the author as a letter writer. The audience gets a unique opportunity to get up close to original material – of course, based on the principle: look, but do not touch.
The Swedish author Selma Lagerlöf (1858-1940, Nobel Prize 1909) is one of the great canons in the history of Nordic literature and in world literature. The great stories such as "Gösta Berling's Saga and Jerusalem" continue to win new readers, but perhaps the most well-known and loved is the imaginative educational and educational novel "Nils Holgersson's underbara 14 resa genom Sverige".
