View full profile →

Erik Axel Karlfeldt (1864–1931) was a Swedish poet and the posthumous Nobel laureate in Literature in 1931, known for his deeply rooted, nature-inspired poetry that celebrated the rural traditions and folklore of his native Dalarna. His work often blended romanticism with a stark realism, reflecting a tension between modernity and the pastoral past. He served as a librarian and was a member of the Swedish Academy, where his conservative aesthetic and nationalistic themes influenced Swedish literary culture.
