The Gösta Berlings saga - The Gösta Berlings saga

Japanese: イェスタ・ベルリング物語 - イェスタベルリングものがたり(英語表記)Gösta Berlings saga
The Gösta Berlings saga - The Gösta Berlings saga
A novel by the Swedish author Lagerlöf. It was the winner of a magazine contest and became her breakthrough work. Published in 1891. The protagonist is a pastor named Gösta Berling, who was expelled from the church for being a heavy drinker, and the novel is based on legends and folk tales from the author's hometown of Värmland. The story revolves around the theme of the leisure elements of society awakening to a life of work and service, but her poetic writing does not make it moralistic. Mori Ogai's translation of The Pastor (1925) is a complete translation of the first chapter of this work.

Japanese:
スウェーデンのラーゲルレーブの小説。雑誌の懸賞に応募し入選した作品で,彼女の出世作となった。1891年刊。大酒飲みのために教会を追われた牧師イェスタ・ベルリングを主人公に,作者の郷里ベルムランド地方の伝説・民話を素材にして書いた長編小説である。社会の有閑分子が勤労と奉仕の生活に目覚めるというテーマをふまえたものではあるが,彼女の詩情豊かな文章はそれを教訓臭くしていない。森鷗外訳《牧師》(1925)はこの作品の第1章の全訳である。
