George Brandes

    Georg Brandes byl dánský literární kritik a teoretik, který významně ovlivnil skandinávskou a evropskou literaturu. V 70. letech 19. století formuloval principy realismu a naturalismu a odmítal ahistorické psaní. Podle něj měla literatura sloužit jako nositelka myšlenek svobody a pokroku lidstva. Jeho vize zahájila hnutí známé jako „Moderní průlom“.
