Paludan-Müller, Frederik

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.12 sec.

Paludan-Müller, Frederik (1809–1876)

Danish poet. His successful Dandserinden/The Dancer 1833 shows traces of Byron's influence. The ‘lyrical drama’ Amor og Psyche/Amor and Psyche was published 1834. His greatest work, Adam Homo 1841–48, has become a Danish classic. This satirical look at his own society was followed by several graceful idylls, including Tithon 1844, Abels død/The Death of Abel 1845, and the beautiful poem Adonis 1874.

He was born in Kerteminde. He studied law at Copenhagen University, but never practised. After travels abroad and a serious illness, he settled down to a quiet and studious life.
