Jutland Movement

The Jutland Movement or folkelige realister [folk realists], were a group of loosely affiliated Danish writers. Their writing style, which dealt with the rural life of the Jutland peasants, formed them into a group. They existed around the turn of the twentieth century.[1]

Members

Members of the group consisted of Jeppe Aakjær and his wife Marie Bregendahl. Johannes V. Jensen was arguably the most successful member of the group, and his sister Thit Jensen. Also, Knud Hjortø, Johan Skjoldborg, Martin Andersen Nexø, Thøger Larsen, and Jakob Knudsen.[1]
