Famous Swedish writer.

Selma Lagerlöf spent her childhood in a family estate called Morbakka, in one of the most beautiful and picturesque regions of Central Sweden - Värmland. This had a considerable influence on the development of Lagerlöf's talent and poetic talent. The Morbakka manor itself is one of the best memories of the writer, she devoted many books to her, for example, the autobiographical novels "Morbakka", "Memoirs of a Child", "Diary".
In early childhood, the girl became seriously ill and could not walk for a long time, being bedridden. Her grandmother and aunt tried to entertain and comfort Selma, and told her many local legends, fairy tales, family chronicles. Later, the writer used them in her work.

Cherishing thoughts of a career as a writer, Lagerlöf graduated from the Stockholm Lyceum and began teaching at a school in southern Sweden. In 1885, after the death of her father, her beloved Morbakka was sold to strangers due to debts, which became a real tragedy for Lagerlöf.
During this difficult time, Selma was writing her first novel, Jöste Berling's Saga. In 1890, Lagerlöf published several chapters of an unfinished book in a newspaper and received her first award. The novel was published in 1891 and became widely known.

Among her works of that period are the short stories "Invisible Bonds" (1894), "Queens from Kungahella" (1899), the novels "The Legend of the Old Manor" (1899), "Mr. Arne's Money" (1904), a collection of short stories "Legends of Christ (1904). All of them are written in a fabulous manner and are based on folklore and folk legends. According to Lagerlöf, the world is driven by love and kindness, which overcome evil with the help of a higher power or a miracle.

The most beloved work of many generations of children by Selma Lagerlöf is the fairy tale "Nils Holgersson's Wonderful Journey Through Sweden": together with a goose flock led by a wise goose, on the back of Martin's goose, the boy Niels makes a journey through all of Sweden. Thanks to trials, participation and kindness wake up in Niels, he learns to take care of others, empathize and make friends, and participate in the lives of others. The book was loved by children all over the world.

In 1907, Lagerlöf was chosen an honorary doctorate from the University of Uppsala. In 1909, the writer received the Nobel Prize (the first female writer to receive this award), and it was the money from this award that allowed her to redeem her native Morbakka, where she lived until her death. During this period, the books "The House of Liljekurn" (1911), the collection "Trolls and People" (1915, 1921), the novel "The Exile" (1918), the fantastic story "The Charioteer" (1912) appeared. The most ambitious work of this period is the novel "The Emperor of Portugal" (1914) about the life of a poor troparion who imagines himself an emperor. The last significant work of Lagerlöf, telling the story of one family for almost five centuries.

During World War II, she saved German writers and cultural figures from Nazi persecution, for example, she issued a Swedish visa for the German poetess Nelly Sachs, saving her from death in a German camp. Lagerlöf donated her gold Nobel medal to the Swedish National Relief Fund for Finland, but the government found the necessary funds and the medal was returned to the writer.

Lagerlöf died in Morbach at the age of 81. A museum was created in her house. The writer is so valued and respected in her homeland that since 1991 her portrait has been depicted on a banknote of 20 Swedish kronor.

Selma Lagerlöf- a real symbol of Sweden. She did not make high-profile scientific discoveries, did not resolve international conflicts. She just wrote a children's story, and that was enough to become the first woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature. Her books, created almost a hundred years ago, still make millions of boys and girls believe in miracles. They are filled with kindness and love, mystery and mysticism, as well as the whole life of this amazing woman. Let's go on an exciting journey, to the world Swedish writer Selma Lagerlöf along with her characters Niels and wild geese.

Fairytale Morbacca.

Selma Ottilia Luvisa Lagerlöf was born on November 20, 1858. Lagerlöf family estate - morbacca, located in one of the picturesque corners of central Sweden - province of Värmland. In these places, the legends of antiquity, folk tales and legends have always been carefully kept, and fairy tales and magic hovered around.

Selma's mother was a school teacher, and her father was a retired military man. But most of all, the little girl was attached to her aunt and grandmother. The fact is that at the age of three Selma is seriously ill. hip dysplasia chain her to the bed. And it is Aunt Nana and grandmother who are most often at Selma's bedside, and all children's entertainment replaces her folk tales and legends. The girl listened to them so enthusiastically that she began to believe that fairy-tale characters really exist. And even, according to the writer herself, she repeatedly saw many of them. That is why I decided to become a writer.

Farewell, dear Morbacca!

However, before the time when her childhood dream became a reality, Selma had to endure a lot of hardships. In 1863, her beloved grandmother passed away, in 1885 her father, and three years later, her beloved Morbakk's ancestral home is being sold for debt under the hammer... By this time, thanks to the efforts of doctors, Selma gets to her feet. Limping and leaning on a stick, the future writer enters adulthood and immediately enters Higher Teacher's Seminary. After graduating from the seminary, she moves to the south of Sweden, to Landskrona, where she gets a job at a local girls' school.

The young teacher was strikingly different from her colleagues. She did not force the children to memorize boring material, but turned her lessons into real performances. In the evenings, secretly from everyone, she begins to write her first novel- The saga of Joste Beurling. Memories of the native estate and life in it form the basis of the work. In 1890, Selma submits her unfinished novel to a competition announced by the popular newspaper Idun and, unexpectedly, wins first prize! So the dream of a little girl begins to become a reality. A year later, her novel was not only fully published, but immediately received wide recognition and high marks from literary critics. From that moment on, Selma's life gradually changes its direction towards the bright side.

Homecoming.

In 1895 Selma Lagerlöf leaves work at school and devotes himself entirely to literary activity. Throughout her long life she created about 30 major works. Here are some of them: "Invisible Bonds" (1894), "The Queens of Kungahella" (1899), "The Legend of the Old Manor" (1899), "Legends of Christ" (1904), "The Tale of the Tale and Other Tales" (1908), "The House Lilyekruny (1911), Trolls and People (1915-1921), Morbakka (1922), Löwenskiöld Ring (1925), Memoirs of a Child (1930). Almost all of them written in a fabulous manner, where love and kindness always win in a seemingly unequal battle with evil.

"The Lagerlöf universe is a moral universe in which the conflict between good and evil is always divinely resolved and confidently leads the heroes to a happy ending"- eminent critics wrote about the young writer. But one of the works of Salma Lagerlöf nevertheless surpassed all the others in popularity. This is the well-known "Niels Journey with Wild Geese".

Initially, it was not just a fairy tale, but geography textbook entitled "Nils Holgersson's Wonderful Journey Through Sweden". Together with a flock of wild geese, the little boy Niels travels across the country on the back of his friend Martin. Only later did an abbreviated translation for children appear, which became popular all over the world. After the publication of the book in 1907, Selma Lagerlöf becomes honorary doctorate from the University of Uppsala, A in 1909 she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature "For a tribute to lofty idealism, vivid imagination and spiritual insight." Selma Lagerfeld becomes the first woman received such a high literary award and the third of the women after Marie Curie and Bertha Suttner, who became the Nobel laureate.

Almost all of his Selma award immediately spends on the purchase of his native estate in Värmland. So, after many years of trials, The writer returns home. After the move, she continues to work actively - because now there is where to draw inspiration from! Almost all of her works, one way or another, are connected with magical Morbakka, where miracles live at every turn.

Selma's personal life is also shrouded in mystery. Little was ever known about her. She did not marry and always spent a lot of time feminism fighting for women's rights. In 1914, she was the first woman to become an honorary member of the Swedish Academy. In 1924, she visits the United States as a delegate to the Women's Congress. And during the Second World War, he tries to save familiar German poetesses from Nazi persecution. Only after her death, rumors began to leak into the press about the unconventional orientation of the writer. However, her relatives denied them, and the discussion on this topic was closed. All this did not prevent Selma from remaining a popular favorite, but only added piquancy and mystery to her biography.

Selma Lagerlöf left this world at a rather advanced age - at 81 after the complications of a long illness. She spent all the last years of her life in her beloved Morbakka. Now there the museum is located dedicated to the life and work of the writer. In her native Sweden, monuments have been erected not only to herself, but also to her heroes, and a portrait of Selma adorns a banknote of 20 crowns.

"What do you consider the greatest happiness?" - asked her once in an interview. "Believe in yourself", Selma replied. Yes, she always believed in herself. And also in fairy tales and miracles. Not without reason, more than a century later, many boys and girls, not only in Sweden, but all over the world, peer into the heavens with hope: what if little Niels flies towards adventures together with a flock of goose?! ..

  Initially, the book was a fascinating guide to the geography of Sweden in literary form for first-grade students, nine-year-olds. In Sweden, since 1868, the “State Book for Reading” already existed, but, innovative for its time, by the end of the 19th century it lost relevance. One of the leaders of the General Union of Folk School Teachers, Alfred Dahlin, proposed the creation of a new book, on which educators and writers would work in collaboration. His choice fell on Selma Lagerlöf, already famous for her novel The Saga of Jesta Berling, and she was also a former teacher. She agreed to Dalin's proposal, but refused co-authors. Lagerlöf began work on the book in the summer of 1904. The writer believed that it was necessary to create several textbooks for schoolchildren of different ages: the first class was supposed to receive a book on the geography of Sweden, the second - on native history, the third and fourth - descriptions of other countries of the world, discoveries and inventions, the social structure of the country.
