Of the five books in the series N.F.S. Grundtvig. Works in English,
this fourth volume on Grundtvig as a politician and contemporary
historian is perhaps the most surprising. He is best known globally
as the founding father of the 'People's High School', with his
emphasis on lifelong learning and the living word in interactive
conversation. In Denmark his next greatest achievement is his
hymn-writing and song-writing. Few think of Grundtvig as a
politician. In public discourse he is linked to Nordic mythology
and church matters, rather than to parliamentary democracy or
contemporary history. However, Grundtvig was a historian and a
politician. His historical interests were the driving force of his
entry into public politics, as is demonstrated by the texts in this
volume.
