    http://www.utexas.edu/cola/depts/ams/undergrad/spring2002u/AMS322KRARUP.HTML
    
    Extractions: Course Objective: The aim of this course is to explore the term "modernism" through close readings in the writings of Baroness Blixen and Ernest Hemingway. Both writers lived most of their lives in exile, developed individual philosophies of prose, exoticized their foreign surroundings: Africa, Spain, France, Cuba, and appear to serious contemporary readers as uncritical heirs to the romantic concept of the Noble Savage. We will look for similarities in style, composition, and aesthetic concerns in a selection of the shorter and longer prose. Points to explore will include: the symbolic use of the African wilderness, the fascination with the airplane, the contrast between European and African life, the idealization of the peasant, the repetitive use of colors, the concept of national identity and the question of gender identification and the construction of a such. The instructor will not present the students with "lectures" as such, but rather try to engage the students in the act of reading closely. Textbooks: Dinesen, Isak.

    Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Karen Blixen (1885-1962) Danish writer, who mixed in her work supernatural elements, aestheticism, and erotic undertones with an aristocratic view of life. Blixen always emphasized that she was a storyteller (fortaellerske) in the traditional, oral sense of the word. She drew her inspiration from the Bible, the Arabian Nights, the works of Homer, the Icelandic sagas, and the fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen, her great countryman. Blixen's stories have inspired such film makers as Orson Welles and Sydney Pollack. She wrote in English and in Danish. 'Are you sure,' she asked, 'that it is God whom you serve?' (from 'The Cardinal's Fist Tale') Baroness Karen Blixen was born in Rungsted, Denmark, into a well-to-do patrician family. She was the daughter of Ingeborg Westenholz Dinesen, and the writer and army officer Wilhelm Dinesen, whose adventuresome spirit and storytelling talents influenced deeply Blixen's imagination. She spent her childhood on the family estate in Rungsted. Throughout her life Blixen's outlook and manner were unabashedly aristocratic. At early age, Blixen showed an artistic inclination. She attended the Royal Academy of Art in Copenhagen, and also studied in England, Switzerland, Italy, and France. In 1907 Blixen made her debut as a writer with several short stories. In 1914 she married her cousin Baron Bror Blixen-Finecke, and went with him to Kenya, where they directed coffee plantation. They were divorced in 1921. Blixen ran the plantation by herself but in 1931 she returned to Denmark, after fruitless struggles with mismanagement, drought, and the falling price of coffee. Blixen's years in Kenya are depicted in OUT OF AFRICA (1937) - "I had a farm in Africa, at the foot of the Ngong Hills." This opening also sets the tone of the autobiobragphy - nostalgic, calm, and stoic. The book ends with a view to the same hills: "The outline of the mountain was slowly smoothed and levelled out by the hand of distance." On the coffee-farm Blixen started to write her first book

52. Review: Out Of Isak Dinesen In Africa
    Out of isak dinesen , the story of the Baroness Karen von Blixen, is nonfiction. Outof isak dinesen is a lovely book, skillfully handled.  
    http://www.januarymagazine.com/nonfiction/blixen.html
    
    Extractions: It's a story most of us are familiar with, even if it's in an indirect way. The Hollywood feature Out of Africa starring Merle Streep was noted enough that even those who didn't see it understand some of the references. What many people this reviewer included didn't realize at the time was that the character Streep portrayed wasn't a fictional someone. Rather, she was a living person who breathed adventure at a time when women most often did not. Out of Isak Dinesen , the story of the Baroness Karen von Blixen, is non-fiction. There is no question about that. Author Linda Donelson has gone to great lengths to research the story of the woman who first came to fascinate her when she was living on a research farm in Nairobi, not far from Karen Blixen's farm. Donelson is a physician and her medical background shows in the thoroughness of her research. When one peruses the bibliography, for example, one gets the feeling that there isn't a lot that's been left out. Donelson has used diaries, letters and Blixen's own writing to reconstruct Blixen's life: first as a young girl in Denmark through to marrying Baron von Blixen and gaining the title she'd always coveted, and on to turn-of-the-century Africa: the beauty, the vastness and the ultimate disappointments.

    Extractions: Karen Blixen/Isak Dinesen Biography K aren Blixen remains a complex figure in the writing and history of colonial Africa. Author, storyteller, and early colonizer, she helped to define Africa and its people for the many Europeans who read her novels, chiefly Out of Africa and Shadows on the Grass . Criticism of her work frequently shifts from admiration of her form to outrage at her portrayal of Africans. Karen Blixen's complicated life and work continue to be studied, debated, and questioned in light of both the colonial society she inhabited and the modern reality of a postcolonial world. Karen Blixen in Africa B lixen's marriage proved an unhappy one and resulted in divorce in 1921 as well as a battle with syphilis a few years earlier. Despite this, Blixen found her years in Africa to be her most liberating and challenging. After her divorce, she ran the coffee farm by herself and lived alone, a practice fairly uncommon at the time. She speaks of her years in Africa as a relief from her former life: "Here at long last one was in a position not to give a damn for all conventions, here was a new kind of freedom which until then one had only found in dreams" (29). Blixen found herself outside the Victorian world of Denmark and immersed in the aristocracy of colonial Africa. She earned the coveted status of an early settler-a position that gave her freedom and standing in society life. Her writing of Africa filters through this position of social privilege that enabled her to watch and comment on the natives and the land from a position of authority in the eyes of her time.

In Denmark she is known under the name Karen Blixen. I made a test in Denmark to see, if it was possible to sell normal books much cheaper as the other publishers did! The book was first published in danish by a normal danish publisher in 1985 for 30,- euro. KnowWare relaunched the same book including 70 more new pages, but the price was very different: and immediately became a bestseller and sold 25.000 copies in the first year, because KnowWare challenged the book-publishing business in Denmark by selling the book at a unseen low price: 6,- euro. Such a book would normally in small Denmark cost 30,- euro. You can get the english book for 4,- euro by ordering it from this website - no credit card is needed.
