The Old Norse Element in Swedish Romanticism is a scholarly work by Adolph Burnett Benson that explores the influence of Norse mythology and culture on the Romantic movement in Sweden during the 19th century. The book delves into the works of Swedish Romantic writers such as Esaias Tegn�����r, Erik Gustaf Geijer, and Per Daniel Amadeus Atterbom, analyzing their use of Old Norse themes and motifs in their poetry and prose. Benson also examines the impact of the rediscovery of Old Norse literature, such as the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda, on Swedish Romanticism. Through this study, Benson illuminates the ways in which Swedish Romanticism was shaped by a fascination with the country's Viking past and the enduring legacy of Norse mythology. This book is a valuable resource for scholars of Scandinavian literature and culture, as well as anyone interested in the Romantic movement and its relationship to national identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
