Bjornstjerne Bjornson Summary
| It will be well, however, to make certain distinctions between the life work of Bjornson and that of the two men whom a common age and common aims bring into inevitable association with him. These distinctions are chiefly two,--one of them is that while Tolstoy and Ibsen grew to be largely cosmopolitan in their outlook, Bjornson has much more closely maintained throughout his career the national, or, at any rate, the racial standpoint. |

| The biography sheds light on the life of Norwegian playwright and poet Bjornstjerne Bjornson. That the nation hails him as a nationalist who propounded patriotic themes and ideas is eloquently described. The biography covers his major works, his ideals and convictions and follows his life till the state funeral that was accorded to him. |
