Olav Dalgard (19 June 1898 – 25 December 1980) was a Norwegian filmmaker, advocate of Nynorsk, and a literature and art historian. Dalgard was born Olaf Hanssen in Folldal, but raised in Oppdal from the age of three. He earned an M.A. degree in literature and art history at the University of Oslo in 1929. During his studies, he was the chairman of the student Nynorsk association and was active in the Mot Dag movement. Dalgard worked as a literary critic for the newspapers ''Dagbladet'' and ''Arbeiderbladet''. From 1931 on he was the dramatic advisor and instructor at Det Norske Teateret. He studied film in the Soviet Union and in the 1930s produced several films with a socialist message. Dalgard was also active in the Norwegian Labour Party's cultural operations. During World War II Dalgard was arrested in 1942 and held as a political prisoner by the German occupants and sent to the Sachsenhausen concentration camp. After the war, Dalgard wrote, among other things, a history of Norwegian theater entitled ''Teateret frå Aiskylos til Ibsen'' ("Theater from Aeschylus to Ibsen", 1948), and theoretical works about film. He was involved in the establishment of the Norwegian Film Institute. Among his most famous works was ''Gryr i Norden'', a dramatization of a strike in Oslo in 1889. Dalgard was a member of the state film board, chairman of the Norwegian Literature Critics' Association from 1953–55, and president of the Norwegian Humanist Association from 1965-77. In 1961 Dalgard received a government grant. In 1978 he accepted the Norwegian culture council's special award for his work. An award, ''Dalgards kritikerpris'', is named for him and is given annually to a reviewer in literature, film, or theater. He resided at Voll, and died in Bærum. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Olav Dalgard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
