LEVY, LOUIS

LEVY, LOUIS
LEVY, LOUIS (1875–1940), Danish poet, critic, and journalist. Levy is mostly remembered for his children's poems which, like Andersen's fairy tales, have become classics that appeal to adults as well as the young. Levy was, however, a remarkably versatile writer in other genres. His Jewish awareness may be seen in the pathetic Byglig en ark ("Build an Ark," 1904) and in the pacifist Jøden som fredsstifter ("The Jew as Peacemaker," 1918).
