By Jens Peter Jacobsen, a nineteenth century Danish novelist, poet, and scientist; published in 1880. This biographical novel follows the life of a Danish intellectual, the author’s contemporary. The plot is filled with vivid details of life and episodes, which played an important role in creating the hero’s character.
