N.F.S. GrundtvigThe Essentialaf Anders Holm

As someone who managed to square the circle between liberalism and respect for national and local cultures, N. F. S. Grundtvig has never seemed more relevant.

This masterful introduction presents the great man’s life, work and a small sample of his own writing, and discusses their current relevance.

Grundtvig’s wide-ranging work will be of interest to historians, theologians, literary scholars, and those in religious studies, cultural studies, political science, and educational research.

Accessible to the general reader as well, it will be a welcome addition to many libraries.
