A Danish poet (1755-1808). He held several high offices, judicial and political. His dramas long enjoyed public favor. Among them are "Idda", a tragedy; and the comedies "The Droll Cousins", "The Art-Deemster", "The Child that Brings Luck". In despair over the ills that had befallen his country in the Napoleonic times, he ended his life by his own hand.
By Charles Dudley Warner
