Thomasine Gyllembourgâs Two Ages: A Novella
Reihe: - Texts from Golden Age Denmark, Band: 9
Herausgeber:in/Ãbersetzer:in:
Although she is now overshadowed by Hans Christian Andersen and Søren Kierkegaard, Thomasine Gyllembourg was arguably the most popular prose fiction writer of the Danish Golden Age. Only known publicly as âThe Author of âAn Everyday Storyââ (an anonym based on an early beloved work), Gyllembourg received high praise from Kierkegaard in A Literary Review (1846), a book-length study of her capstone novella, Two Ages (1845). With this original translation of Two Ages, readers of English can explore the novellaâs influence on the socio-political philosophy of Kierkegaardâs Review, all while enjoying one of the literary masterpieces of Golden Age Denmark.
Troy Wellington Smith is an independent scholar who received a Ph.D. in Scandinavian Languages and Literatures from the University of California, Berkeley in 2023. He has published several articles on Kierkegaard and other Danish Golden Age figures in peer-reviewed journals and edited volumes.
