"Two chief tendencies have for many years been predominant in Danish intellectual and cultural life. The one is the movement led by Grundtvig, the other is 'Brandesianism' [led by Brandes]. 'Brandesianism' claims the honor of having introduced modern intellectual and cultural life into Denmark, while the movement inspired by Grundtvig, in its origin and subsequent development, is decidedly national. Brandesianism,' which arose in the 'seventies, is a cult of the intellect, the tendency represented by Grundtvig, on the other hand, aims at satisfying man as man, and above all at fulfilling the longing of his heart with regard to temporal as well as eternal concerns." p. 495-96.

The author then sketches the life work of Grundtvig, and in particular his conception of a free high-school for adults and the practical development of his plans. An institution at Elkhorn, Iowa, founded by Scandinavians in 1878, was designed to realize the aims of the Danish models.
