Produktbeschreibung
Niels Lyhne by Jens Peter Jacobsen is a philosophical novel that explores themes of atheism, idealism, disillusionment, and the search for meaning in a godless world. The story follows Niels Lyhne, a sensitive and introspective Danish poet, as he moves through life struggling with questions of faith, love, and purpose. Raised in a secular, artistic environment, Niels rejects religion in favor of reason and personal conviction. However, as he experiences heartbreak, loss, war, and death, his ideals are repeatedly tested. He loses several loved ones-including his romantic interests and family members-and endures profound existential crises. Ultimately, Niels Lyhne portrays a tragic but sincere quest for authenticity in a world that offers no easy answers, capturing the spiritual struggles of modern man in the face of uncertainty and mortality. The novel is often seen as a precursor to existentialist literature.
Autorenporträt
Jens Peter Jacobsen (1847 - 1885) was a Danish novelist, poet and scientist, in Denmark often just written as "J. P. Jacobsen" (and pronounced "I. P. Jacobsen"). He began the naturalist movement in Danish literature and was a part of the Modern Breakthrough. Jacobsen's canon consists of two novels, seven short stories and one posthumous volume of poetry - small, but enough to place him as one of the most influential Danish writers.
