Par Lagerkvist. Well, not to play favorites or anything, my all time favorite author. Winner of the 1951 Nobel Prize for Literature and, in 1940, elected one of the eighteen "Immortals" of the Swedish Academy. He was born in Sweden in 1891 and he has published around 40 books, most of which are very hard to find in english. Barabbas. Sheds new (to me anyway) light on the human element behind the story of Christ. The Dwarf. I first read this when I was a teenager. The combination of my mother thinking it was disgusting and the `Winner of the Nobel Prize' on the cover made it irresistable. Once again, great insight into human nature and the need to belong.

Lagerkvist championed cubism and expressionism in his youth; in his later years he was absorbed in the religious nature of man's struggle with good and evil. (See also Contemporary Authors , obituary, Vols. 49-52.) Andr© Gide has said of ["Barabbas" that it was] "beyond all doubt a remarkable book," and there will be few readers to disagree. The work combines the utmost physical realism with an intensity of spiritual conflict not often equaled in the retelling of Biblical tales. P¤r Lagerkvist has taken a man barely mentioned in the New Testament and has built him into a character as real, as evil, and as good as he must have been to the men who knew him those centuries ago.

Adapting Teresa of Ávila's vision of the soul as a crystal castle with many floors and rooms, Myss guides us from room to room, helping us meet different aspects of our self, our soul, and our spirit preparing us for the ultimate encounter with God and our own divinity. Through intense practices and methods of spiritual inquiry adapted for contemporary life, she helps us to develop our powers of prayer, contemplation, and intuition and to ascend the seven levels of soul knowledge that build a soul of strength and stamina.

Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback TimeSearch for Books and Writers by Bamber Gascoigne One of the major Swedish writers of the first half of the 20th-century, a moralist, who used religious motifs and figures from the Christian tradition without strictly following the doctrines of the Church. Lagerkvist was a particularly outspoken critic of totalitarianism. Among his central themes was the fundamental question of good and evil, which he examined through such figures as the medieval red-hooded hangman, Barabbas, and the wandering Jew Ahasuerus. Lagerkvist was a member of the Swedish Academy and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1951. "The countryside opened around them in every direction, with marshlands, little lakes, all sorts of waters, with tiled strips, grazing lands, countless ploughed squares, with fenced pastures, bogs and woodlands and farmsteads scattered among the oats and the rye out in the sun. The light was so friendly and open everything could be seen, and in the distance Grandfather's place was in sight, sheltered in a group of maples." (from Guest of Reality August Strinberg 's late plays and his opposition to naturalism. In 1916 ÅNGEST (Anguish), a disillusioned collection of poems, appeared. His anguish was derived from his fear of death, the World War, and personal crisis. He tried to explore how a person can find a meaningful life in a world where a war can kill millions for very little reason. "Love is nothing. Anguish is everything / the anguish of living." The collection, which turned away from the traditional romantic expression, marked the beginning of poetic modernism in Sweden. In HIMLETS HEMLIGHET (1919, The Secret of Heaven) Lagerkvist posed the basic question, 'What is the meaning of life?' He implied that while this issue preoccupies human beings, it is a matter of total indifference to the Almighty.
