Born Oct. 11, 1782, in Vium; died Mar. 26, 1848, in Torning. Danish author.

In his early works, Blicher was a romantic. His Excerpts From the Diary of a Village Minister (1824) contains autobiographical material. He is the author of the short stories “The Robber’s Chamber” (1827) and “The Parson at Vejlby.” The novella The Knitting Room (1842) deals with nature and life in Jutland.
