nansen, tolkien, nesbit & ransome fridtjof nansen was intimately involved with the great changes of the twentieth century - in society and politics, as well as in science and in travel. he began his career as a pioneer in science, the first to show that nerve networks were made up of inter-communicating individual cells, rather than one continuous structure. his scientific results, gathered on board the fram as she drifted through the arctic, are still of interest as they provide a baseline for estimates of the affect of global warming on the rapidly melting ice. so much so that his six volume set of results was reprinted by an american university towards the end of the twentieth century. fridtjof nansen was actively involved in russia just before the first world war and as communism was adopted throughout the russian empire. he wrote a book on his travels through siberia in tsarist russia as well as two on his travels in the caucasus after the revolution. he regarded the eskimo he met in greenland as living in a truly communistic society. both lenin and the last tsar read his book on siberia. he helped obtain norwegian independence from sweden. although a republican, fridtjof nansen was instrumental in persuading a danish prince to become the first modern king of norway. in his youth he dropped out of university to go hunting seals on a sailing ship. and yet, by the time his journal of this period was published as a book, nansen wrote of his opposition to whaling - in the very year that his countrymen sent the first ever factory-whaler to the south atlantic. nansen's pioneering work with the millions of refugees at the end of the first world war resulted in his being awarded the nobel prize for peace. e. nesbit makes four references to the arctic, two to northern lights or aurora borealis, two to dogs and sledges. we do not have to look far for her inspiration, as we also find one substantial reference to a viking, two to norway, and three to fridtjof nansen... read more arthur ransome was the next writer to publish work which used fridtjof nansen's books as the basis for his narative. e nesbit invented the modern fantasy genre while arthur ransome made it seem utterly real. we can assume that arthur ransome read nesbit's writing as she was the leading children's author of her time. whether he got the idea from e nesbit for using fridtjof nansen's writings in his own stories we cannot be sure. however, he repeatedly cites nansen's books. read more the recent publication of jrr tolkien's roverandom throws light on those who influenced him. in this early and previously unknown work, jrr tolkien refers directly to e nesbit's creation, the psammead. tolkien therefore wrote of a character invented by nesbit, the psammead, and didn't change the name. i reveal here that jrr tolkien also borrowed from fridtjof nansen, through character and plot, and in very great measure. tolkien, however, never acknowledged the fact - at least not directly. read more 1861 oct 10 fridtjof nansen born near christiania [now called oslo]. 1881 student in zoology at oslo university. 1882 march to july on sealer viking to arctic. on his return appointed curator in the zoology department, bergen museum.
