Autoren-Porträt von Johannes Ewald
Johannes Ewald (18 November 1743 - 17 March 1781) was a seminal figure in Danish literature during the 18th century. His poetic contributions had a profound influence on the Danish literary scene, marking the transition from baroque to romanticism. Ewald's personal life was fraught with difficulties; he struggled with health issues and underwent a series of personal crises which deeply impacted his work. Nonetheless, his creative output remained remarkable. One of his well-known works, 'The Death of Balder' ('Balders Død'), is an exemplary testament to his dramatic and poetic skill. This literary piece reflects Ewald's keen ability to blend Nordic mythology with a modern dramatic form, displaying both sensitivity to form and emotional depth. His writings often grapple with existential themes and showcase a lyrical intensity, which are characteristic trademarks of his literary style. Ewald's works continue to be celebrated for their innovation and emotional resonance within the canon of Danish literature. He was included in the Danish Culture Canon by the Danish Ministry of Culture in the category of Literature, further cementing his status as a literary icon. His legacy continues to be a subject of academic interest and his works are still widely read and analyzed for their aesthetic and historical significance.
