Alexander L. Kielland Libros

    Alexander Lange Kielland se erige como uno de los escritores realistas más destacados de Noruega en el siglo XIX, reconocido como un pilar de la literatura nacional. A pesar de su acomodada cuna, defendió constantemente a los menos afortunados y se mantuvo como un crítico acérrimo de la hipocresía social a lo largo de su carrera. Sus obras, a menudo marcadas por una aguda sátira, frecuentemente apuntaron a las percibidas deficiencias del clero y del sistema educativo. El legado perdurable de Kielland reside en sus perspicaces novelas y cautivadoras historias cortas que siguen ofreciendo comentarios sociales de relevancia atemporal.

      Alexander Lange Kielland (1849-1906) zählt zu den "Großen Vier" der norwegischen Literatur und prägte die Moderne in Skandinavien. Zunächst Jurist, wurde er ab 1879 Schriftsteller.
