Descrizione: Translated by Niels Haislund. cf. Pref. "Schematic surveys of sources from antiquity": [307]-309. "List of literature": p. 309-311 [Bio] Frisch, Hartvig, 1893-1950 : Born in the city of Hillerød into an academic family and trained as a classical philologist, Frisch was a Social Democratic politician as well as an author and book editor. He worked as a teacher from his graduation in 1917. His written works include a number of books on societies in Antiquity, on democracy - and "Plague on Europe: Bolshevism - Fascism - Nazism", an analysis of totalitarianism from the 1930s. Frisch’s critical attitude to Fascism, Nazism and Bolshevism caused him to keep a low profile during the German occupation of Denmark in 1940-45, when ?Plague on Europe’ was banned and confiscated by the Gestapo. He was made education minister in 1947.
