A celebrated Norwegian novelist, Sigrid Undset, gained international fame as the author of historical novels and in 1928 received the Nobel Prize for literature. Although her father, an archaeologist, had introduced her to Norwegian medieval history at an early age, her first novels were set in contemporary Norway.
Fru Marta Oulie (1907), Jenny (1911 ), and Images in a Mirror (1917) all deal with the role of modern women, caught between traditional duties and a new need for freedom. The historical trilogy
Kristin Lavransdatter (1920-22) ranks as one of the great works of Norwegian literature. It portrays the triumphs and tragedies of its protagonist, Kristin, from age seven to her death in the plague 40 years later. Set in 14th-century Norway, the trilogy offers a penetrating analysis of a woman's development from childhood to maturity and a picture of the life and culture of medieval Norway. Undset converted to Catholicism in 1925, and her next historical novel, the tetralogy
The Master of Hestviken (1925-27), also set in medieval Norway, shows her increasing preoccupation with religious questions. From the 1930s on, she dealt with more contemporary issues, expressing in her novels a concern for religious and racial tolerance. An early and forceful critic of Nazism, Undset fled to Sweden and then to the United States after the German invasion of Norway in 1940. She returned to Norway in 1945.

Serbian
actress. Already at the beginning of her career, critics competed to
describe her: eccentric temper, extravagant and refined appearance, Parisian
elegance and Slavic charm. To many, she looked like Hollywood actresses that
Belgrade was just discovering. “The most sex appealing actress of her time”
said Mata Milosevic, her frequent partner and close friend. She was adapting
stage eroticism to her romantic sensitivity, approaching a role with an open
heart and interpreting it intellectually. Nevenka was conquering the stage
with great elan. Her ruling over the stage couldn’t be set apart from the
powers of her body which, as an acting instrument was performing seductive
music.
