Brandes, Georg (Morris Cohen)
- Brandes, Georg (Morris Cohen)
(4 feb. 1842, Copenhague, Dinamarca–19 feb. 1927, Copenhague).
Crítico y erudito danés. La publicación de una serie de conferencias que dictó en la Universidad de Copenhague,
Høvedstrømninger i det 19 de aarhundredes litteratur, 6 vol. [Las grandes corrientes de la literatura europea del siglo XIX] (1872–90), aceleró la transición del romanticismo al realismo en la literatura danesa. Su llamado a los escritores para que trabajaran al servicio de ideas progresistas y reformaran la sociedad moderna, junto a su defensa de escritores como
Henrik Ibsen y
August Strindberg, le valieron una fuerte oposición por parte de los conservadores; aun así ejerció una enorme influencia en toda Escandinavia. Entre sus otras obras de crítica se cuentan
Det moderne gjennembruds mænd [Hombres de la irrupción moderna] (1883) y
Danske gigtere [Poetas daneses] (1877).
