Georg Brandes was known as the "Father of the Modern Breakthrough"
for his influence on Scandinavian writers in the late nineteenth
century. A prominent writer, thinker, and speaker, he often
examined intellectual topics beyond the literary criticism he was
best known for. In this collection, William Banks has translated a
number of Brandes's pieces that engage in the concerns of oppressed
peoples. By collecting, annotating, and contextualizing these
works, Banks reintroduces Brandes as a major progenitor of thinking
about the rights of national minorities and the colonized. Human
Rights and Oppressed Peoples includes thirty-five essays and
published speeches from the early twenty-first century on subjects
as diverse as the Boxer Rebellion, displaced peoples from World War
I, Finland's Jewish population, and imperialism. This collection
will interest interdisciplinary scholars of human rights as well as
those who study Scandinavian intellectual and literary history.
