Når den fortalte historie går op i limningen

Abstract

Jonas Holst: “When the Historical Told Tale Falls Apart – On Peter Seeberg’s Literary Documentarism” The article offers a study of the ways in which the Danish author Peter Seeberg employs historical material and genres in his literary texts. Seeberg makes use of a variety of genres and anachronisms to create splits in historical time so that other forms of temporality come to the fore, especially humans’ own existentially experienced time as finite beings and eternal time on a cosmological scale.
