Wie ken nie die seun met die goue hare en die wit hoedjie wat op die groot, wit gans oor Lapland sweef nie? Dis Niels Holgersson, natuurlik.

Niels Holgersson bly op ’n plaas in Swede. Hy is ’n klein niksnut. Eendag gebeur iets vreemds met hom. Hy word in ’n kabouter verander en beland op die rug van ’n mak gans. Saam beleef Niels en die gans Maarten groot avonture. Hulle emigreer saam met die wildeganse na Lapland.

Onderweg maak hulle vriende, soos meneer Emerik die ooievaar en Donsie, die grys gans. Maar hulle moet ligloop vir Smirre, die geslepe jakkals ...

The Treasure (Hardcover): Selma Lagerlof The Treasure (Hardcover)
Selma Lagerlof; Edited by 1stworld Library
R565 Discovery Miles 5 650 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The Treasure is an opposite fairy tale, presenting Prince Charming as he really is: an orphan girl is cleaning fish and foreseeing her life of poverty; a man well-dressed in seductive splendor woos her and offers her ... forever after. There is only one catch: she must betray her sister. Although Selma Lagerlof won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1909, her name is known in this country - if at all - as author of a children's book only. All her other works, including novels and feminist essays, have been unavailable in English for almost fifty years.

Year after year the Franciscans defended the Capitol by penitences, and works of charity, and the promulgation of God's word. They protected it century after century, but as time went on, men became more and more feeble and lacking in force. The monks said among themselves: "Soon the kingdoms of the earth can stand no longer. A redeemer of the world is needed as in the time of Augustus." They tore their hair and scourged themselves, for they knew that he who was to be born again must be the Antichrist, and that it would be a regeneration of force and violence. As a sick man is tormented by his pain, so were they hunted by the thought of Antichrist. And they saw him before them. He was as rich as Christ had been poor, as wicked as Christ had been good, as honored as Christ had been humiliated. He bore powerful weapons and marched at the head of bloody evil-doers. He overturned the churches, murdered the priests, and armed people for strife, so that brother fought against brother, and each feared his neighbor, and there was no peace. And for every person of power and might who made his way over the sea of time, they cried out from the watchtower on the Capitol: "Antichrist, Antichrist "

THE MIRACLES OF ANTICHRIST was written following a trip of Selma Lagerlof's to Sicily. While there, she heard -- and was inspired by -- a Sicilian legend: "When Antichrist comes, he shall seem as Christ. There shall be great want, and Antichrist shall go from land to land and give bread to the poor. And he shall find many followers." Selma Lagerlof was the first woman and the first Swedish author to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1909. She was considered one of Sweden's most beloved authors; the Swedish Academy declared that their recognition of her was "for reason of the noble idealism, the wealth of imagination, the soulful quality of style, which characterize her works."

The debut novel of Swedish author Selma Lagerlof, "The Saga of Gosta Berling" was first published in 1891. It is the story of its titular character Gosta Berling, a deposed minister. Gosta Berling becomes one of the pensioners in the manor at Ekeby when he is saved by the Mistress of Ekeby from freezing to death. Set on the shores of Lake Fryken, Lake Loven in the story, in Varmland, a historical province in Sweden, the novel employs elements of magic realism to project an exotic image of early 19th century Sweden. Described in the "Encyclopedia Americana" as a "prose epic of Swedish country life," "The Saga of Gosta Berling" remains to this day one of Lagerlof's most popular works and an undisputed classic of Swedish romanticism.
