| Book Description | The book "The Fall of the King" was published by the Arab House of Sciences Publishers, written by the renowned Danish novelist and poet Johannes Vilhelm Jensen, who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1944. His works are characterized by depicting human development as part of the general evolutionary trend of humanity. This novel is considered one of his most important works in the history of Danish literature, having won the title of "Novel of the Century" in a poll conducted by the Danish press in 1999. The events of this novel intertwine multiple historical facts and moments, expressed through characters that played a crucial role in embodying and revealing the fundamental historical and political contradictions of the temporal process and the course of life. The novelist takes us through an imagined historical narrative to the time of kings and emperors, where we discover, through the character of King Christian II, one of the Kings of Denmark in the 16th century, an important and real historical detail about this Shakespearean-like king. The novel, which is a blend of critical realism and poetic narrative, presents the fate of this king through the impact of events on a hero who encounters him by chance and then becomes linked to him forever. It also showcases the state of Denmark following the Swedish people's rebellion against the Danish occupation at that time. Does this mean that there is a symbolic structure in the novel, which may seem imaginary at times and realistic in its philosophical analyses at other times? We find the answer when we read its clear philosophical significance through the fate that the novelist charts for its two central characters, whom he calls the two tempests. He states: "And here are the two tempests now! King Christian, who leapt onto the stage of history like a flame of enduring patience, with his grand projects, became a maker of an incomplete history for Denmark. And Michael Thgersen, whose indomitable pride and yearning have turned him into the ancestor of an extended fictitious lineage. They were both confined there in a cell together, each one of them the founder of a lineage of blue illusions." "The Fall of the King" is an enjoyable and purposeful novel, multi-faceted and diverse, evoking the history of a bygone era, yet its authoritarian symbols remain. The novelist conveys these through his specific critical issues and fundamental analysis of the culture of the pre-modern era, successfully portraying stages of human development as an important part of a deeper system in the broader evolutionary trajectory of humanity, making it worthy of reading. |
