Compiled and published by Bogi Th. Melsteð.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In Lögrétta, January 22, 1927, there is a discussion of Bogi Th. Melsteð's book about his sister Stefanía. It says; \"About this book there has been\u003cbr\u003e next to silent. She came here in\u003cbr\u003e bookstore just in time for Christmas.\u003cbr\u003e Mr. Bogi Th. Melsteð has composed it and published it in memory\u003cbr\u003e about his sister.\u003cbr\u003e Stefanía Melsteð was born in\u003cbr\u003e Klausturhólar, August 8, 1864.\u003cbr\u003e Her parents were Sjera Jón.\u003cbr\u003e Pálsson Melsteð Provost and Mrs.\u003cbr\u003e Steinunn Bjarnadóttir Melsted.\u003cbr\u003e Stefania grew up in Þingvellir\u003cbr\u003e at the home of Mr. Simon Bech and Mrs.\u003cbr\u003e To his paternal sister Anna. Was it\u003cbr\u003e a model home described as a model home. Autumn \u003cbr\u003eIn 1874, Stefanía entered the Reykjavík Primary School and stayed there for two winters. She then stayed with\u003cbr\u003e Mrs. Thordis Thorsteinsen, who\u003cbr\u003e was also her paternal aunt.\u003cbr\u003e She stayed with her often in the winters since then. When Stefania was on\u003cbr\u003e At the age of 14, she fell ill with an illness.\u003cbr\u003e those who finally brought her to death.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the spring of 1879, Stefanía moved to\u003cbr\u003e Kárastaðir with his foster mother, Mrs. Anna, who was then a widow.\u003cbr\u003e But in the autumn of 1886 she went to her mother at Klausturhólar and\u003cbr\u003e was born there on Ascension Day, 1889.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The book relies heavily on letters, both from Stefania and to\u003cbr\u003e her. In addition, she moves\u003cbr\u003e testimony of various people who knew\u003cbr\u003e her, including Olafia\u003cbr\u003e Jóhannsdóttir and Mrs. Þórunnar\u003cbr\u003e Richardsdóttir in Höfn, both of whom were her great friends.\u003cbr\u003e The book also contains a beautiful afterword by Dr. Valdimar Briem.\u003cbr\u003e The poet describes Stefania in this way:\u003cbr\u003e way:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"You sick child, you healthy hero,\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e You light a pure light on the sad,\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e you pale lily, beautiful rose,\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\"You fallen reed, you strong oak.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Stefania's life was not long.\u003cbr\u003e not very eventful. She died on\u003cbr\u003e 25 years old and was suffering from an illness in\u003cbr\u003e 11 years. But despite that, I understood\u003cbr\u003e she leaves behind beautiful vegetation in her tracks\u003cbr\u003e She was a model girl in every way, because she was\u003cbr\u003e intelligence and nobility combined. She\u003cbr\u003e had a unique way of making\u003cbr\u003e little to do with their trials.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Did she get what she wanted?\u003cbr\u003e most desired: to become more\u003cbr\u003e joy but sorrow for their loved ones\u003cbr\u003e and to all those who were her contemporaries, — despite the great suffering and sadness of the illness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This is unanimous testimony.\u003cbr\u003e of all the people who knew anything\u003cbr\u003e to Stefania. She was in that group of fortunate people who care for all that,\u003cbr\u003e the best and most sublime in everything\u003cbr\u003e heart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This is the value of the book. It will be a welcome guest for Stefania's family. But she\u003cbr\u003e also has a message for everyone\u003cbr\u003e those who want to read books, and\u003cbr\u003e Bogi Melsteð thanks him for his\u003cbr\u003e work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Old Thingvellir.","brand":"Bókin.is","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51122640552264,"sku":"OSC-55921","price":9500.0,"currency_code":"ISK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/4029\/9848\/files\/63561.jpg?v=1754747462","url":"https:\/\/www.bokin.is\/en\/products\/stefania-melste-fiminning-og-brjef-63561-55921","provider":"bokin.is","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
