Home Email This Article Print Reading Sigrid Undset CYNTHIA GRENIER Sigrid Undset's two greatest novels Kristin Lavransdatter and The Master of Hestviken detail the long, often difficult lifelong road of the two protagonists, each equally strong-willed, to submit to a higher power and attain their final salvation. Given the torn fabric of our culture today, a fabric marked by so much that is ugly, wrong-headed, and destructive, the world of Undset's novels, a world where values really matter, gives us a welcome opportunity for spiritual renewal. Sigrid Undset Seventy years ago Norwegian novelist Sigrid Undset was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. At 46 she was one of the youngest authors and only the third woman to be so honored. As the decades have passed, it has become ever more evident that Undset's talent as a novelist places her, along with George Eliot, as one of the only two women meriting a place in the pantheon of the world's greatest writers. And to Undset herself goes surely the distinction of being the premier Catholic novelist of either gender in this century. At the Nobel award ceremony in Stockholm, Par Hallstrom, a distinguished author in his own right and a member of the Swedish academy, praised her for her remarkable recreation of medieval life in her two major works

Stamp Index Next Issue Previous Issue Home Page Famous Norwegian Women on Stamps SIGRID UNDSET (1882-1949) Portrait of the author Sigrid Undset painted in 1911 by her husband Anders Castus Svarstad. She is best known for her historical novel "Kristin Lavransdatter". For this Middle Age trilogy she received the 1928 Nobel Prize in literature. She gave the money from this prize to help families with disabled children. Among many other famous books are "Jenny", "The Master of Hestviken", "The Faithful Wife" and "Madame Dorthea". Many of her novels deal with problems about regret and guilt. She converted to Roman Catholicism although she was first generation of emancipated women. Undset early stood up against the Nazism because of its contempt for weakness and had to live in USA during the German occupation of Norway.

SIGRID UNDSET INNHOLDSOVERSIKT Innledning De tre kvinner Camilla Collett Camilla Colletts diktning ... e-post Sigrid Undset ble født i Kalundborg i Danmark. Faren var en kjent norsk arkeolog, Ingvald Undset. Moren Anna Maria Charlotte Gyth var dansk. Familien flyttet til Norge i 1884 og bosatte seg i Kristiania. Hennes søstre Ragnhild og Signe ble født der. Sigrid var et begavet barn, og da faren ble alvorlig syk, tilbragte hun mye tid hjemme og leste høyt for faren. Hun ble kjent med norrøn litteratur, vikingetiden og middelalderen. Da Sigrid var elleve år, døde faren. Moren tilbød Sigrid videre skolegang, men Sigrid visste at moren hadde dårlig råd etter hun ble enke, og tok derfor handelsskolen og fikk seg kontorjobb som 17-åring. Hun var kontordame i 10 år .Hun kjedet seg i jobben, og fritiden ble brukt i ensomhet. Hun utforsket Kristianias arbeiderstrøk og opplevde kontrasten til de deler hun hadde vokst opp i. I kontakt med naturen følte hun glede over livet. Hun skrev ved siden av kontorjobben , og tre år etter debutromanen Fru Marta Oulie kom ut i 1907, kunne hun endelig bli forfatter på heltid. Hun fikk stipend og reiste til Italia. I Roma levde hun i kunstnermiljø, og

26. Kristin Lavransdatter (Sigrid Undset) - Book Review The Garland; The Mistress of Husaby; The Cross Perhaps as a result of the austere binding on the library copy, I approached Kristin Lavransdatter, http://dannyreviews.com/h/Kristin_Lavransdatter.html

Danny Yee's Book Reviews Subjects Titles Authors ... Latest Kristin Lavransdatter: The Garland; The Mistress of Husaby; The Cross Sigrid Undset translated from the Norwegian Alfred Knopf 1930 A book review by Danny Yee Perhaps as a result of the austere binding on the library copy, I approached Kristin Lavransdatter , a thousand page historical novel set in 14th century Norway, with some wariness. And it is certainly not light reading, with its share of illness and plague, sudden and unexpected episodes of violence, death, and other human tragedies. Like the Icelandic family sagas which inspired Undset, however, Kristin Lavransdatter offers an ultimately positive view of human existence. Kristin Lavransdatter tells the story of one woman from childhood to death, through betrothal and an illicit affair, marriage and marital discord, and childbirth and motherhood. There is too much in it to grasp in a single reading, let alone summarise in a brief review. Among other things it encompasses the complexities of kinship ties and family relationships, the pitfalls of reputation and status in tightly knit rural communities (and briefly of the high politics of Sweden and Norway), and the variety of religious beliefs and practices. Undset handles the changes in pacing needed in a novel covering half a century, convincingly connecting events and depicting changes over a lifetime.

30. THE UNKNOWN SIGRID UNDSET Yet since her death in 1949 Americans have heard little about sigrid undset. Tim Page wants to change that. Page, the biographer of another longneglected http://www.brucebawer.com/undset.htm

THE UNKNOWN SIGRID UNDSET. Edited by Tim Page. New translations by Tiina Nunnally. 406 pp. South Royalton, Vt.: Steerforth Press. $30. Sigrid Undset on the Norwegian 500-kroner note Sigrid Undset, contrarian S he won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1928, the third - and still the most recent - Norwegian to do so. (The others were Knut Hamsun and Björnstjerne Björnson.) Her medieval trilogy Kristin Lavransdattar found a wide American readership in the 1920's; two decades later, a lecture tour in the United States made her one of the more high-profile of wartime literary exiles. Yet since her death in 1949 Americans have heard little about Sigrid Undset. Tim Page wants to change that. Page, the biographer of another long-neglected novelist, Dawn Powell, was led to Undset by a list of Powell's favorite books, on which Undset's Jenny (1911) was, he writes, the only title that ''drew a complete blank.'' He hunted down the novel - long out of print in English - and found himself sharing Powell's admiration. The result: The Unknown Sigrid Undset

Sigrid Undset My father, Ingvald Martin Undset, obtained his doctorate in 1881 with a thesis on The Beginnings of the Iron Age in Northern Europe My mother had no choice but to send me to a commercial school in Christiania. I did not like it there but it had one great advantage over my old school; no one there expected me to like anything! Later on, I went to work in an office and learned among other lessons to do things I did not care for, and to do them well. I remained there for ten years - from the age of 17 until I was 27. Before I left this office, two of my books had already been published - Fru Marte Oulie in 1907, and Den lykkelige alder (The Happy Age) in 1908. After leaving the office job, I went to Germany and Italy on a scholarship. I have published a number of books since, my last two novels being set in the Middle Ages. They are Kristin Lavransdatter , which appeared in three volumes (192O-1922): Kransen (The Garland) Husfrue (The Mistress of Husaby) Korset (The Cross) ; and The Master of Hestviken ] and its sequel In 1912, I was married in Belgium to the Norwegian painter A. C. Svarstad. I was received into the Roman Catholic Church in 1924, and my marriage was then dissolved, since my husband had earlier been married to a woman who is still living. We have three children.
