註釋

In 'Weird Tales from Northern Seas', Jonas Lie offers a collection of stories steeped in the supernatural and seafaring lore of Scandinavia. Lie's narrative voice, rich with the regional color and cadence of Norwegians' speech, contributes to the atmospheric depth of the tales. The literary style is reminiscent of the Romantic poets, embracing the magnificent and mysterious nature of the North. The stories are elegantly framed in the historical context of 19th-century literature, at a time when interest in folklore and the Gothic tradition surged, influencing authors to explore the uncanny and the sublime. Jonas Lie, a prominent figure in Norwegian literature, poignantly channels his Nordic heritage into his work. Born in 1833, he spent his formative years amidst the imposing landscapes of Norway, which profoundly impacted his writing. Lie's maritime background, coupled with an affinity for the folklore of his homeland, allows him to weave tales that resonate with authenticity and cultural significance. His works are considered a testament to his pioneering spirit and his ability to capture the essence of Nordic life in his writings. 'Weird Tales from Northern Seas' is recommended for readers who seek to immerse themselves in the mythic grandeur of Northern mythology and appreciate the blend of realistic settings with ethereal elements. Jonas Lie's ability to capture the imagination through a blend of the fantastical and the everyday makes this book an essential read for lovers of classic literature and maritime mythos alike.
