Danius S. Shelkovyj sobor
Danius S. Shelkovyj sobor
| Author | Danius S. |
| Title | Shelkovyj sobor |
| Description | Sara Danius (1962–2019) was a Swedish literary critic. From 2013 to 2019 she was a member of the Swedish Academy, and from 2015 she served as its Permanent Secretary. Danius was described as “Sweden’s literary queen” and as a “widely beloved public intellectual”. She was also a professional basketball player and a style icon.
The range and depth of Danius’s personality are reflected in texts that have become classics of contemporary Swedish criticism and essay writing. The Silk Cathedral includes essays on Marcel Proust, Bob Dylan, Svetlana Alexievich, Thomas Mann and other prominent writers, as well as on photographers and fashion designers. The book also contains texts from three radio broadcasts that together form a kind of miniature biography. Whatever the subject, Sara Danius’s essays are distinguished by analytical depth, precision and carefully shaped formulations, clarity and lightness of style, and an ability to combine a broad perspective with close attention to the smallest detail, always accompanied by humour. |
