Frederik Van Eeden

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Eeden, Frederik Van 

Born Apr. 3, 1860, in Haarlem; died June 16,1932, in Bussum. Dutch writer.

Eeden, one of the “men of the eighties,” was a founder and editor of the journal De nieuwe gids. His most significant work is his Little Johannes (also known as The Quest; parts 1–3, 1887–1906; Russian translation, 1914). Eeden’s enthusiasm for Christian socialism was reflected in the plays The Brothers (1894) and Lioba (1897); however, the play The Promised Land expresses disenchantment with social reconstruction. Eeden’s enthusiasm for Catholicism is reflected in his collection To My Guardian Angel and Other Poems.
