Summary: In the Swedish literature, satire occupies a special, odd, place. Roman by P.Ch. Jersild "Calvinol's Journey Throughout the World" (1965) is a unique text that concentrates a large number of acute worldview problems that Swedish society tries not to actualize. Among them - the issues of Catholicism and Protestantism, Nazism and racial biology, a special "third" path of Sweden and the consequences of neutrality against the backdrop of world dictatorial regimes. Reflections on the fate of the world P.Ch. Jersild puts on a conditional form of a religious-political pamphlet. |
