Recollections Of My Childhood And Youth - George Brandes - Bog

Bag om Recollections Of My Childhood And Youth

Recollections of My Childhood and Youth is an autobiographical work by George Brandes, a Danish literary critic and scholar. The book offers a vivid and detailed account of Brandes' early life, from his childhood in Copenhagen to his years as a student and young adult in Germany and France. Brandes recounts his experiences with remarkable clarity and insight, describing his relationships with family members, friends, and mentors, as well as his intellectual and artistic development. Throughout the book, Brandes reflects on the cultural and political context of his youth, offering observations on the social and intellectual currents of the time. Recollections of My Childhood and Youth is a fascinating and engaging memoir that provides a unique perspective on the life and times of one of Denmark's most influential writers and thinkers.I was sincerely attached to the two sisters, and felt myself at ease in their house, although the conversation there was chiefly carried on in a language of which I understood but little, since French was spoken only on my account. The only shadow over my pleasure at spending my evenings in the Rue Valois du Roule was the fact that this necessitated my missing some acts at the Theatre Francais, for which the Danish Minister, through the Embassy, had procured me a free pass. Certainly no Dane was ever made so happy by the favour.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
