Product Description
Seldom has a man gone through such profound reH gious changes as thisS wede, who died last May. The demonic element in him, which spurred him on restlessly, made him scale heaven and fathom hell, gave him glimpses of bliss and damna:5 tion. He bore the Cain smark on his brow: A fugitive and a wanderer shalt thou be. He was fundamentally religious, for everyone who searches after God is so, a commonplace truth certainly, but one which needs to be constantly reiterated. And Strindberg ssearch was more painful, exact, and persevering than that of Qmost people. He was never content with superttr ficial formulas, but pressed to the heart of the I matter, and followed each winding of the labyV rinthine problem with endless patience. Too often theD ivinity which he thought he had discovered Oturned out a delusion, to be scornfully rejected the Qmoment afterwards. Until he found the God, whom jj he worshipped to the end of his days, and whose existence he resolutely maintained against deniers.
