N2  - Amalie Skram (22.8.1846-15.3.1905), the most prominent naturalistic Norwegian author, is suspected to have suffered from a bipolar affective mental disorder. She committed suicide after two earlier attempts at the age of 44 and 48. In her literary work she held a predominantly pessimistic view. In a brief description of her psychiatric history, special attention is paid to her circling around the suicide theme, both in her literary work and in her rich private correspondence. On several occasions her letters revealed suicidal thoughts.<p />  <p>Language: no</p>
