Tentang Penulis

Selma Lagerlöf (1858–1940), a luminary of Swedish literature, was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, an accolade she received in 1909 in recognition of her profound narrative art, which is replete with idealism and humanity. Born in Mårbacka, Värmland, Sweden, Lagerlöf is noted for her rich storytelling which is anchored in folklore, legend, and her deep rural heritage. Her literary style blends a distinctive nordic romanticism with a modern exploration of character and psychological depth. One of Lagerlöf’s remarkable gifts was her ability to weave ethereal legends with the everyday realities of Scandinavian life. Among her notable works is ‘Gösta Berling’s Saga’ (1891), a novel that earned her significant praise and launched her career. Another cornerstone of her literary accomplishment is ‘The Wonderful Adventures of Nils’ (1906), which was originally conceived as a reader for schools but gained international acclaim for its lyrical narrative and evocative descriptions of the Swedish countryside. In her collection, ‘The Greatest Christmas Novels, Stories, Carols & Legends (Illustrated Edition)’, Lagerlöf showcases her artistry in capturing the essence of Christmas through a Scandinavian prism. This work, like many of her others, is imbued with themes of redemption, compassion, and the enduring human spirit. Selma Lagerlöf’s profound influence on both Swedish literature and international letters remains a testament to her pioneering spirit and her quest to explore the gentle and mystical contours of human experiences.
