Ludwig Holberg

    3 décembre 1684 – 28 janvier 1754

    Ludvig Holberg est considéré comme le fondateur de la littérature danoise et norvégienne moderne. Ses œuvres, influencées par l'Humanisme, les Lumières et le Baroque, englobent des essais, des réflexions philosophiques, des traités historiques et des pièces de théâtre. Il est surtout connu pour les comédies qu'il a écrites pour le théâtre de Copenhague dans les années 1720, qui continuent de présenter son style et son esprit distinctifs.
