About this book
The Greatest Fire: A Study of August Strindberg is a 1973 book by Birgitta Steene, published by Southern Illinois University Press. The study focuses on Strindberg as a "conscious artist and form-giver" and explores his significant influence on 20th-century literature, rather than just his notorious reputation as a "madman and misogynist". The book, part of the "Chicago Classic" series, offers a critical perspective on the Swedish writer's work and legacy, providing an important contribution to English-language scholarship on Strindberg.
