Troels Frederik Lund

Troels Frederik Lund

Troels Frederik Lund (September 5, 1840 - February 12, 1921) was a Danish historian born in Copenhagen. Lund was appointed historiographer-royal to the king of Denmark and Comptroller of the Order of the Dannebrog.

He entered the University of Copenhagen in 1858. His first important work, "Historiske Skitser", did not appear until 1876, but after that time his activity was stupendous. In 1879 the first volume of his "Danmarks og Norges Historie i Slutningen of det Xvi. Aarhundrede", a history of daily life in Denmark and Norway at the close of the 16th century, was published. His work said little about kings, armies and governments, but instead concentrated attention on the lives of the ordinary men and women of the age with which he deals. He used these common people to illustrate a vast body of documents previously neglected by the official historians.
