People across the English-speaking world are often surprised to
hear that 19th-century Denmark produced not one, but two figures of
international significance in the field of religious thought and
life, Soren Kierkegaard and NFS Grundtvig. Apart from the impact of
his educational ideas on some parts of the southern hemisphere,
most notably India, Grundtvig's viewpoint on human nature and human
society, on the relationship between national and international
community, on the inner dynamic which sustains and drives forward
the Christian tradition, remains remarkably little known outside
his own country. In recent years, however, this situation has begun
to change. Grundtvig's thought is being more widely studied and
discussed in an international perspective. This varied collection
of essays, mostly European and North American, illustrates this
development. It suggests that in NFS Grundtvig we have a
19th-century thinker with unexpected relevance to the dilemmas of
the new century.
