À propos de l'auteur
Georg Brandes, born on February 4, 1842, in Copenhagen, Denmark, was a prominent literary critic and scholar, whose influence extended beyond the Scandinavian literary circles. Brandes is perhaps best known for his seminal work, 'Eminent Authors of the Nineteenth Century: Literary Portraits,' which provides insightful critiques and analyses of literature's key figures during that dynamic period of cultural flowering. His critical method combined rigorous scholarship with a keen understanding of the sociopolitical contexts that shaped the literature of the era. Brandes' approach effectively bridged the gap between literary studies and social sciences, positioning him as a pioneer of the Modern Breakthrough in Scandinavian literature. His call for realism and naturalism in literature was instrumental in bringing Scandinavian literatures into dialogue with broader European traditions. Besides 'Eminent Authors of the Nineteenth Century,' Brandes' extensive corpus includes works on Shakespeare, Goethe, and a variety of influential writings on aesthetics and culture. Brandes' literary style was marked by clear, accessible prose, solid argumentation, and an unwavering commitment to intellectual freedom. He passed away on February 19, 1927, leaving behind a legacy that has continued to shape literary criticism and academic inquiry.
