"Published in Europe by Museum Tusculanum Press, University of Copenhagen"--T.p. verso.
Danish Northwest is a poetry collection that shows “hygge” in its various aspects as practiced or rendered in the outskirts of Denmark, more precisely in the northwestern region of Jutland called Thy. The poems were originally published in Danish and in a dialect called “thybomål”. As with any translation, the English version can be considered in a sense a new collection of poems given the adjustments and additions needed to capture the essence of the original. This new rendering has been achieved through a collaboration between the author and the Irish poet, Mary-Jane Holmes.
In this book a number of Professor Minna Skafte Jensens articles on Danish Neo-Latin poetry have been collected. The rich Danish Renaissance literature in Latin has since the 1980s been the subject of increasing attention. In her pioneering studies, written between 1984 and 2001, Minna Skafte Jensen presents some of the central authors, such as Hans Jrgensen Sadolin, Tycho Brahe, and Zacharias Lund. The articles offer sensitive readings with an eye to intertextual allusions as well as to the sociological context. The articles which were originally published in Danish appear here for the first time in English.

'It' can be read both as a collection of poems and as a single epic, which fuses together the microcosms of human relationships with a broad philosophical pathos.
