Legende o Kristu

Legende o Kristu

Selma Lagerlöf

Legends of Christ is a collection of stories by the Swedish writer Selma Lagerlof, and it begins with the only realistic story in the entire book called Holy Night.

The story begins with a memory of the author's grandmother, who always told her beautiful stories as a little girl. He remembers those stories better than his grandmother herself. Of her, the day of her death, which happened when the author was only five years old, remains the most vivid in her memory. However, before her death, her grandmother told her stories on several occasions. She begins the stories with a story told one Christmas Eve, when neither she nor her grandmother could go to Midnight because one was too young and the other too old for such an activity. They stayed at home alone and that was a good reason for the Christmas story about what happened after the birth of Christ.

The introduction to the story of the birth of Christ was a personal confession about the grandmother and her influence on the girl, now an adult writer. The introduction is written in the first person, and later the grandmother takes over the story. Since the grandmother took on the role of narrator, the story is again told in the first person, so here we have a case of a narrator within a story.
