Anna Kirstine Bloch (née Lindemann, 2 February 1868 in Horsens – 25 November 1953 in Copenhagen) was a Danish actress.〔〔 She was admitted to the Royal Danish Theater, was a student of and debuted in 1885 as Titania in William Shakespeare's ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. Between her first two roles she was taught by her husband to be, : they were married in 1887. Together they wrote ''Miss Nelly'' in 1886, in which Anna Bloch later played the main role. Her breakthrough came in 1888 as Trina in ''April Fools'' by Johan Ludvig Heiberg.〔 Another early role was that of Hilde in Ibsen's ''The Lady from the Sea'' in 1889.〔 Bloch was awarded the Ingenio et Arti gold medal in 1910.〔〔 This was the 25th anniversary of her first role, and in a commentary for ''Politiken'', Danish writer Emma Gad says that Bloch could make a normally insignificant role seem important to a play, as with the "brilliant and peculiar humour" of her portrayal of the "noble slut" ()〔 Eugenia〔 in Ludvig Holberg's ''Don Ranudo de Colibrados''. For Gad, her most memorable performance was as the peasant girl Anjutha〔 in Tolstoy's ''The Power of Darkness'', where she was "gripped by a fear so wild" that "her mysterious horror ... rippled down to the auditorium and ran like a shudder from row to row."〔 Bloch left the Royal Theatre in 1918, although she returned for a season as guest actress and rejoined from 1922–25.〔 She found herself typecast as the young girl or woman, even playing the fourteen-year-old Hedevig in Ibsen's ''The Wild Duck'' in 1921 at the age of 53.〔 Only really at home in 19th century theatre and unable to find suitable roles in the new era which began after the First World War, she was overtaken by the naturalism in theatre arts which she had helped pioneer.〔 She did however tour the provinces, and appeared at the Betty Nansen Teatret.〔 She can be heard in a scene from Jens Christian Hostrup's ' (''The neighbours across the road'') recorded in 1938.〔 She wrote a one-act comedy ' (''Such bills''). The Royal Theatre presented this in 1923 with Bloch in the leading role and it was published in 1924. She also wrote two radio dramas, ''Epilog'' in 1934 and ''Veni, vidi, vici'' in 1935.〔〔 Anna Bloch is buried in Vestre Cemetery, Copenhagen.〔 ==Publications== * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anna Bloch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
