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. WORKSGedichten: Een bloemlezing. Amsterdam-Antwerp, 1949.Dagboek, 1878–1923. vols. 1–4.
