Vesaas, Tarjei

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.07 sec.

Vesaas, Tarjei (1897-1970)

Norwegian novelist and poet. The theme of his early work was the harmony of life in tune with nature. After World War II his style became more symbolic and he used visual images to represent inner conflicts. His best-known novels are Kimen/The Seed 1965 and Is-slottet/The Ice Palace 1963.

His poetry is lyrical mood-painting, and written, like his novels, in Nynorsk (the form of Norwegian language derived from dialects).
