Publisher's Synopsis

Memoirs of Lewis Holberg is a book written by Ludvig Holberg in 1827. It is an autobiographical account of his life, detailing his childhood, education, and career. Holberg was a Norwegian writer, philosopher, and historian who is considered one of the most important figures in Scandinavian literature. The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a different period of Holberg's life. In the first chapter, he describes his childhood in Bergen, Norway, and his early education. He then goes on to discuss his time at the University of Copenhagen, where he studied law and philosophy. The following chapters cover his travels throughout Europe, his work as a professor of rhetoric, and his literary and philosophical pursuits. The book provides a fascinating insight into the life and times of one of Scandinavia's most influential thinkers.
