LEVERTIN, OSCAR IVAN (1862-1906)

This article appears in Volume V16, Page 511 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LEO-LOB
LEVERTIN, OSCAR IVAN (1862-1906) , Swedish poet and man of letters, was born of Jewish parents at Norrkoping on the 17th of July 1862. He received his doctorate in letters at
Upsala
  in 1887, and was subsequently docent at
Upsala
 , and later professor of literature at Stockholm. Enforced sojourns in southern Europe on
account
  of
health
  familiarized him with foreign
languages
 . He began by being an extreme follower of the naturalist school, but on his return in 1890 from a two years' residence in Davos he wrote, in collaboration with the poet C. G. Verner von Heidenstam (b. 1859), a novel, Pepitas brollop (189o), which was a direct attack on naturalism. His later volumes of short stories, Rococonoveller and Sista noveller, are fine examples of
modern
  Swedish fiction. The lyrical beauty of his poems, Legender och visor (1891), placed him at the head of the romantic reaction in
Sweden
 . In his poems entitled Nya Dikter (1894) he drew his material partly from medieval sources, and a third
volume of poetry in 1902 sustained his reputation. His last poetical
work
  (1905) was Kung Salomo och Morolf, poems founded on an eastern legend. As a critic he first attracted attention by his books on the Gustavian age of Swedish letters: Teater och drama under Gustaf III. (1889), &c. He was an active collaborator in the
review
  Ord och Bild. He died in 1906, at a time when he was engaged on his Linne, posthumously published, a fragment of a
great
 
work
  on
Linnaeus
 .
