Home Where They Lived What They Did When They Lived ... Back To Britannica Dinesen, Isak Isak Dinesen pseudonym of Karen Christence Dinesen, Baroness Blixen-Finecke born April 17, 1885, Rungsted, Denmark died September 7, 1962, Rungsted Isak Dinesen, 1959 AP Danish writer whose finely crafted stories, set in the past and pervaded with an aura of supernaturalism, incorporate the themes of eros and dreams. Educated privately and at the Academy of Fine Arts, Copenhagen, Dinesen married her cousin, Baron Bror Blixen-Finecke, in 1914 and went with him to Africa. There they owned and directed a coffee plantation in Kenya and became big-game hunters. After her divorce in 1921 she continued to operate the plantation for 10 years until mismanagement, drought, and the falling price of coffee forced her return to Denmark. Her years in Kenya are recorded in a nonfiction book, Out of Africa Den afrikanske farm ). These highly regarded memoirs of her years in Kenya reveal an almost mystical love of Africa and its people. The book is a poetic reminiscence of her triumphs and her sorrows on the loss of her farm, the death of her companion, the English hunter Denys Finch Hatton, and the disappearance of the simple African way of life she admired. In 1944 she produced her only novel The Angelic Avengers Seven Gothic Tales Winter's Tales Vinter-eventyr ), and

23. Review: Out Of Isak Dinesen In Africa Out of isak dinesen , the story of the Baroness Karen von Blixen, is nonfiction. There is no question about that. Author Linda Donelson has gone to great http://januarymagazine.com/nonfiction/blixen.html

Out of Isak Dinesen in Africa: Karen Blixen's Untold Story by Linda Donelson Published by Coulsong 1998, 440 pages Buy it online Out of Karen Blixen's Africa Reviewed by Linda L. Richards It's a story most of us are familiar with, even if it's in an indirect way. The Hollywood feature Out of Africa starring Merle Streep was noted enough that even those who didn't see it understand some of the references. What many people this reviewer included didn't realize at the time was that the character Streep portrayed wasn't a fictional someone. Rather, she was a living person who breathed adventure at a time when women most often did not. Out of Isak Dinesen , the story of the Baroness Karen von Blixen, is non-fiction. There is no question about that. Author Linda Donelson has gone to great lengths to research the story of the woman who first came to fascinate her when she was living on a research farm in Nairobi, not far from Karen Blixen's farm. Donelson is a physician and her medical background shows in the thoroughness of her research. When one peruses the bibliography, for example, one gets the feeling that there isn't a lot that's been left out. Donelson has used diaries, letters and Blixen's own writing to reconstruct Blixen's life: first as a young girl in Denmark through to marrying Baron von Blixen and gaining the title she'd always coveted, and on to turn-of-the-century Africa: the beauty, the vastness and the ultimate disappointments.

40. Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen):  The Blank Page isak dinesen (Karen Blixen) from Last Tales. By the ancient city gate sat an old coffeebrown, black-veiled woman who made her living by telling stories. http://www.whiterabbit.net/@port03/Dinesen/BlankPage/blank_page.htm

The Blank page Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen) from Last Tales B y the ancient city gate sat an old coffee-brown, black-veiled woman who made her living by telling stories. She said: "You want a tale, sweet lady and gentleman? Indeed I have told many tales, one more than a thousand, since that time when I first let young men tell me, myself, tales of a red rose, two smooth lily buds, and four silky, supple, deadly entwining snakes. It was my mother's mother, the black-eyed dancer, the often-embraced, who in the end wrinkled like a winter apple and crouching beneath the mercy of the veil took upon herself to teach me the art of story-telling. Her own mother's mother had taught it to her, and both were better storytellers than I am. But that, by now, is of no consequence, since to the people they and I have become one, and I am most highly honoured because I have told stories for two hundred years." Now if she is well paid and in good spirits, she will go on. "With my grandmother," she said, "I went through a hard school. 'Be loyal to the story,' the old hag would say to me. 'Be eternally and unswervingly loyal to the story.' 'Why must I be that, Grandmother?' I asked her. 'Am I to furnish you with reasons, baggage?' she cried. 'And you mean to be a story-teller! Why, you are to become a story-teller, and I shall give you my reasons! Hear then: Where the story-teller is loyal, eternally and unswervingly loyal to the story, there, in the end, silence will speak. Where the story has been betrayed, silence is but emptiness. But we, the faithful, when we have spoken our last word, will hear the voice of silence. Whether a small snotty lass understands it or not.'
